Indeed you are

what a beat..

 

[Jurn8]

lol KK<AA is not cool but when villian flops quads it just makes it funny!

 

[Dwilius]

KK<AA vs 65/38 12% 3bet at 6max is funny too. Losing another stack+ to same villain when roles are reversed is less amusing.

thats a major drop off what stakes is this?

25nl FR until I decided I was good enough for 50nl HU massivly underolled being taken for 5 buy ins by a fish no less

Back to 10nl and grinding as turbo sngs are too swingy and shit to grind without wanting to really commit to studying ICM.

guess thats why we preach BRM

10nl is a much better choice then the turbo SnG's in terms of grinding out a bankroll though

get back up to 25nl and crush it like we all know you can!

 

[eNTy]

Heh you obviously haven't seen my 25nl stats

Although you have seeing as I just posted the graph.

 

[jewboy07]

but ive seen you play (that vid you posted)

you have all the knowledge to beat it

 

[Tygran]

go me!

was up nice and then tilted it back off...

dunno why I'm tilting lately... normally not a huge issue.

LOL live poker.

Tourney, we're approximately 100 BBs deep. MP raises 3x I call on the button with 88. flop is A53 rainbow. He bets retardedly small I call. turn=8 he checks I bet he raises I raise he calls. River offsuit J. I pot he calls. Flips over AA. Not only does he say he only calls because he's worried that I have 24, but the other people at the table are shocked that we don't both have 24. Do they like not understand card combos and the odds of either of us having exactly 24 especially with a raise and call preflop? Anyway won a flip to double, then still short shoved AT called by QQ can't spike an A game over. Then go over to play some cash. These people are just downright awful, but the structure sucked. It was 1/2 and the most anyone ever bought in for was 60 bucks. Most had between 20 and 40. And the norm is 7-8 limpers and $2 and $4 bets postflop. I start raising and I get like 4-5 callers that each put in like 25-50% of their stack. Anyway I pretty much own the game for a bit, ran up my $100 buy-in to like 350. By this time there are at least some other semi-deep players but still all the pots are small unless I raise.

Anyway, little later I have 56s on the button, I raise the limpers to $14 and get 2 callers. 65x flop, I bet, other guy shoves (had like $50 total to start), other guy folds, I call, 55 obv. Then someone is like "wow you stacked with 2 pair? What did you think he had when he went all-in?". That kinda tilted me a bit lol and combined with some spewy plays and some bad luck (missed an OESFD and stacked AK for TPTK 50 BBs deep against spewtard who obv had J3 for 2 pair) I ended up with like 100 in front again. Then I just flat out tilted and started raising/betting in the dark and ended out the night shoving in the dark. It ended up actually being a flip but of course I never win flips unless they're in the team event. It was fun, wish we coulda done a proper cash game with 100 BBs even if it was just 50nl, but w/e after playing mostly online it's always nice to play a bit live. One of these days I'm gonna stop running like shit in live tourneys though and actually go deep in one of these things.

LOL understand card combos? I'd be impressed if the avg casino goer could spell it right let alone tell me what it is and how to figure it out.

Sounds like it was fun and I'm sure it's a nice break from the computer screen..wish I lived near somewhere to play live.

 

[Tygran]

BTW..will somebody smack me and tell me to stop calling c/r river shoves from nits?

thanks in advance...

/the dealer hates me tonight
//5 flopped sets where the turn/river make 4 straight cards AND a backdoor flush
/// 0 for 5 in coinflip all ins tonight as well.

///weeee

 

[vanquish]

i'm dronk but please stop saying "i stacked AK" when ur talkin bout u having AK and jamming. "i stacked off with AK" is appropriate, whereas "i stacked AK" means that the other guy had AK and you stacked him. plzplz pzlpzlzplz

 

[Tygran]

mebbe cause i'm tired..but there's an 80/45 on a table whose name is cracking me up...

"bailoutx09"

he had a 450bb stack... he then proceeded to live up to his name.

[tenbob]

Ship the grand slam imo.

 

[eNTy]

shipped

 

[Jurn8]

I brought a crate of Guiness yesterday because of the Irish grand slam lol !! Good times!

 

[switch0723]

such a luckbox win!!!

but its ok, since if any team has to win that isn't wales, it has to be ireland or scotland since we like them

 

[eNTy]

Set mining in 3bet pots is kinda bad i know but flopping the nuts over nuts is kinda sexy too. Flop bet is small because 3bets from tags is usually a big pair or AK and I wanted a reraise. Worked out ok.

SB: $11.20 (112 bb)
BB: $2 (20 bb)
Hero (UTG+1): $10 (100 bb)
MP1: $13.30 (133 bb)
MP2: $9.25 (92.5 bb)
MP3: $14.60 (146 bb)
CO: $9.85 (98.5 bb)
BTN: $10 (100 bb)

Pre-Flop: Hero is UTG+1 with 4:diamond: 4:heart:
Hero raises to $0.30, 3 folds, CO raises to $0.90, 3 folds, Hero calls $0.60

Flop: ($1.95) 4:club: J:diamond: 4:spade: (2 players)
Hero bets $0.75, CO calls $0.75

Turn: ($3.45) Q:club: (2 players)
Hero bets $2, CO calls $2

River: ($7.45) 8:spade: (2 players)
Hero bets $6.35 and is all-in, CO calls $6.20 and is all-in

Results: $19.85 pot ($0.95 rake)
Hero showed 4:diamond: 4:heart: (four of a kind, Fours) and won $18.90 ($9.05 net)
CO mucked J:club: J:spade: (a full house, Jacks full of Fours) and lost (-$9.85 net)

 

[switch0723]

apart from the set mining oop part, there is nothing wrong whatsoever with how you played it postflop

 

[eNTy]

Yeah I find being oop is not so much of an issue when flopping gin.
