  • that last uncalled p/f raise was QTs in MP
  • docbox is my biggest problem at the table i think, although with the table change I am now on his left instead of vice versa
  • flush draw semibluff from bb there... Ks4s so i flopped bottom pr too
  • I don't have any $$ in my Party account (so I can't chat) , but I'm watching Aces ... gl !!

  • ty macbb....

    that multiway hand I had TT, and from what the guys are saying, the best hand vs 99 and 99. With 2 left to act behind me tho, both of whom flat called the p/f raise, and a J-high flop, i had to fold. Ugh. Told you docbox would be a problem.
  • T4s from SB, caught middle pair, bet out, BB folded.
  • moved in with 22 there, no call
  • Chip count? Players left?

  • Doh, I was just about to come watch.
    I'm getting AA won :D
  • Nope, 2nd.
  • Thanks to all who read this post in time to show up and cheer me on!  I haven't really been playing much at all since the Vegas trip, so this nice little score is a good way to say hello to the game again.

    My opponent was good... we were just going back and forth and back and forth for a while, and I figured it would come down to one hand, which it did.  It went something like this:

    I know I raised preflop with ATo and he called.  Flop 889 I think check check.  Turn 10.  He checked I think, I bet the pot (about 20K) and then we got all our money in.  He had K8.  River: the overkill K.

    Respect to my opponent (docbox) for playing a great game. 

    And the rail chat was priceless.  Scotty was in the middle of tearing some guy a new ******* as I busted.  ROFLMAO!  Thanks again for cheering me on!

    I don't think the guy knew he was being insulted!

    Which, I find, is usually the best way to insult someone. ;)

    After he typed "all in" into the chat box for the 38th time, I felt it was time to open up a can of ScottyZ on his ass.

    SomeDonkey: i see a all in soon
    ...
    ScottyZ: I see a useless line in the chat box coming soon

    Oh yeah, as for the "controversial" call to bust the 3rd place guy, A_A was almost exactly a 2-1 dog getting a bit better than 2-1 money odds. A close EV decision, but an EV-correct call. Folding would have left you in BAD shape in terms of stack size. You made the right play here I think.

    ScottyZ
  • Yeah that one was interesting.

    The prospect of trying to rebuild from 35K didn't appeal to me, and that's what ultimately swung me over to a call. Hey, everyone's gotta get lucky sometimes!!! :)
  • And here is the last hand.  I suppose I could have folded to the turn raise, but I had to give docbox credit for trying an all-in bluff in this spot.  It LOOKED like a good spot to bluff, so that's what I thought he was doing.  Sadly, he had the goods.

  • Nice welcome wagon!
    Do you think that you played the same way as you would have if you didn't have a little break? Also we should do a forum check to see what the most popular line is.....I'm going to guess that it goes something like "Great Job Again ALL Aces".

    WTG
    Wader
  • Thanks wader.  I don't have much time, but a quick response to your question: I think I probably played about the same as if I hadn't taken a break.  My thinking on this stuff is that I have to be in the right mindset to win at poker.  If I'm not in that mindset, I don't play.  So, if something's bothering me, I don't even bother trying to win at poker, because I personally feel I wouldn't be playing my best.  I've been feeling pretty good lately... it's too bad I don't have more time to play!

    Did that make any sense?  ;)

    LOL @ "most popular forum line".  I can think of at least a few others that would eclipse that line, some involving the words "books" and "taxes" and "rigged", etc.
