Greg thanks for being willing to stick around to give me a ride home yesterday, even though you busted out before the final table. I did get home safe and sound and would love to play Wednesday night.

Congrats to Mark, Brent and Shopsy for the 1,2,3 finish in the tournament.
That was just a warmup for what was coming though.
The 25/50c cash game with a max $40 buyin was... I can't think of the words to describe it. Somebody help me out.
Anyway, the story I'm here to tell was the 3rd last hand of the night. It was just Shopsy, Tyson, and myself left at this point. I raised on the button to $2.50 with suited connectors... they both called... which could basically be guaranteed from how these two were playing throughout the whole cash game.
Flop:
:kc :2c :8c
Tyson lead out with a $6.00 bet... I raised it to $12. Shopsy called. Tyson re-raised another $20.
I thought about it for a minute. Tyson mentioned "King-Eight make money!", a well known phrase at the last few games I've been at. The only hand I was worried about was the ace or queen high flush being drawn to (or already made)... because i was holding :jc :10c
I pushed all-in for another $52.50 on top of Tyson's $20.00 raise... trying to push out Shopsy, figuring he had the Ace-high flush draw. I did honestly believe that Tyson had K8. It took a long time for Shopsy to lay down his hand... turned out he flopped the flush same as I did, but with only :6c :4c
It only took Tyson ~30 seconds to convince himself I didn't have pocket Ks. He flipped over K8, just as I expected.
Turn comes :2h pairing the board... and giving Tyson a total of 6 outs.
River... you guessed it :kh ... giving Tyson the full houseÂ
The $188.50 pot goes to Tyson.
So...
That's why I'm making this shameless post. He owes me money! Instead though, I would like it to go to the Ottawa Hospital. Sunday, October 23rd I am running a 10k race to raise funds for the expansion of the hospital, including a new Intensive Care Unit.

P.S. I still had a great night!!! What did you guys think of the new table???
Thanks for the invite, had a great night.

ps. DON'T FORGET ABOUT SOFTBALL BRENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Loved the table.. the no drink holders on it is pretty much what I'd do too, keeps the possibiity right out for spills. And I like the suede...
Great night of poker, it was a lot of fun, but I'm never, ever ever, playing a cash game with those crazy freaking guys again.... "$2 raise? Hell, that's like checking!"
Mark
Thanks for hosting.
Yes, it was very aggressive. But to make it crazy we needed Danny and Graham
As for the last hand;
I put you on three possible hands,
Non nut flush, Ak with nut draw, and KK. I gave each of them equal weight, but you coming over the top of me was leaning me more towards Ak with nut draw. Im very aggressive and Im betting into you if you had the flush then why go over the top?
- there is something else here but I dont really want to post but I had another 'hunch' as well which really led me down that path (AK)
so the pot was giving me more then 2-1, and the way I read my hand I was ahead (1-4) or had a slim draw (5-1) or was dead (KK)
I gambled, which I have been known to do
