Blinds are 50/100. Kris pushes all-in from mid position for a total of 600 chips.
Folded around to Donkey Nit in the BB aka BigChrisEl...who thinks for a long ass time and then calls.
Donkey Nit shows Ks-Qs (it's suited) Kris shows pocket 6's.
Flop comes and has a 6 in the door with a Jack and another rag.
Donkey Nit says it is done, but some one says "no....runner-runner."
Turn is a 9. River 10.
Ouch....but it was suited.
You pegged me just about right but with one little correction..., I am not wearing lipstick that Thursday night just so that you know - more like every Sunday just before the 12 o'clock mass lol!
PS: That "someone" is me... I was dealing and saw the trips on the flop but you had a long shot runner-runner chance on hitting your straight and guess what..., it did! Ouch indeed
Chris, do you feel bad about this hand??? I don't consider it a bad call or a bad beat. Forget the pot odds and you have a mid pair against two overs before the flop, very close to 50-50 and that means that by the river it can go either way... Moreover, this is like a family tradition with Elliots and me. If you recall a few seasons back Eleanore did exactly the same thing to my pocket Kings. She drew to a streight with her QJ and busted me out of the tourney, trip kings this time...
Ye'll have a good weekend,

Donkey, I thought you had this one locked for sure. What happened?

When Michael crippled Steve (Steve only had more the BB then) he had about a 2 to 1 chip lead on me. 8500 to my 3500.
Once I busted Eleanor I never got many more chips, just picked up blinds here and there to lose them back in the blinds.
Heads up I got no real solid hands and with less the 10 BB I had to push or fold.
Heh. I was wondering how long you'd hold off before mentioning that. Punk.
Well it was a dirty beat, 50/50 pre-flop but it is just gut wrenching to win that way. I'd rather a King flop and you not hit then you making trips and me making a straight.
It is just gross to lose that way. (I know because I lose that way a lot.)
Once you crippled me you had a very strong chip lead.
see you all next Thursday
