who said stars wasn't rigged?

I had been hit badly a couple hands earlier and didn't have enough left to get the blinds to fold. My only hope was the big stack would take out the middle stack. Unfortunately, he folded to the mid stack's small river bet like a donk. So I was on my own.

Watch what happenened next...

  • life is sweet when the cards come your way like that!
  • That was just absolutely sick ...
  • My head hurts. NH's though, lol... we all knew it was rigged anyways, about time somebody offered up some proof!
  • To bad you can't get cards results like that in live tournaments, you online lucksack you!

    stp
  • Wait, didn't he have AK against your KQ? :D

    Btw, nice stretch of hands pkrfce9
  • Nice to screw somebody else over Greg!

    Nice comeback. now tell us that you won..........

    BAM!
  • It's nice to see the suck outs are working in your favour instead of against you, hopefully you don't have that kind of luck on Thursday ;)
  • I can't believe the King didn't beat you in hand #2.
  • That's it Greg...use up all your luck before Thursday...none of us will mind at all.

    So, DID you win that tourney?

    Ya I did win. The other guy nailed me huge heads up with a better kicker on top pair to take a decent chip lead but then he made a couple of bad bluffs, especially the last one where he raised all-in on the button with Q2s against my AQs. For once no suckout on the river. My new motto should be 'nothing like giving up'.

    Don't worry guys. I'm only an online lucksack. Thursday I'll be back to my normal hapless self.
  • Nicely done Greg. Good to see that the suckouts don't kill you online as well.
