Big Game



Thatwas the starting table.....fun times.....

9:51....not much happening....Waffles is playing loose....

9:53....He is now gone with Ad-Qd...with a diamond and straight draw...against Julius KK.....

10:00...Julius_Goat has a flopped flush after calling the raise from iam23skidoo...he had J's and flopped a set...the rest is history......

I bought in...because I didn't have the time to play for a token this week...fuck it...

A bunch of good players are gone already.....deep stack tourneys like this are not slowing down anybody...

10:11....Julius_Goat is bullying the table and winning all pots....

10:25....I take a pot from Julius...thought he would call...I had two pair....he's still far and away the chip leader....

10:31....breaktime....32 out of 45 left I am in 24th after losing a pot to Mike_Maloney.....

10:40...break is over and I just got Ac-10c...I'll raise....take the blinds....

30 left....I'm in 24th...I need chips!!!

Nice tunes on Buddy's request page......I requested MegaDeth and Grateful Dead...

10:48....I had Ad-Qd...I raised pot and Julius woke up with a pocket pair...he called and then bet huge on the flop....the flop was Ax-Ax-Xx.....I go all-in he called and I double up....nice....

I went from 21st to 10 on that one...

10:51...I just cracked another Bud Light....one of many....

Mike Hargrove resigned as Seattle Mariners manager....that guy was the most annoying hitter in the history of baseball...he makes Nomar Garciaparra look like he is rushing the pitcher.....

10:59...not much happening....Julius_Goat loses a big pot.....

11:04...I just took a big pot with Ad-7d....an ace on the flop and Julius bet out...I went all in with a A-rag......

11:58...final table....I have 8th place and take first pot with 8's.....

12:08...my A's win big against kajagugu's K's....huge hand at the final table....huge!!!!

8 left and I'm in 6th out of 8.....5 people get paid.....big stacks everywhere...

12:39...Smokkee...goes out on the bubble.....against TripJax the Chip leader....

12:49...I took out DaBag with 5s-3s..and flopped a flush draw....he had Ac-Kc...which is a curse hand from my last Big Game....

1:07....I go all-in with Kx-Xx..of clubs...Hoy called with Ax-Xx...and gets an ace....after I did get a K on the flop.....c'est la vie.....

1:12....Not a bad score for a buy-in.....76.00 and get a 372.00 score...not too bad a way to end the BBT....

well played. you and rake feeder were going at it a while there. goog gamin' sir.

PokahDave said...

That was quite a battle...I had to lay down a couple of raised hands...as pointed out by Smokkee. Rake got some timely flops....good game yourself....

Now trying to figure out what kind of player rating system you have where Waffles, Iggy, 23skiddoo and The goat rate the same color

PokahDave said...

I haven't narrowed down my color coding just yet....it's more of a range that needs to be slightly changed. Now if I could only get the color brown for a few choice opponents i'd be all set!

Hey Dave, I have no problem with you whatsoever (referencing your comment on my blog). I've always enjoyed playing with you and I'm sure that will continue in the future. I just think that calling an allin raise with the JackAce is just about always a bad move. You are either dominated by AK or AQ or AA or KK or QQ or JJ, or you are slightly behind to a medium pocket pair. Unless you think a guy would be allin raising you with a hand like AT or A9 -- which I surely would not in that spot against your utg raise btw -- then I just don't see how you can call in most cases there. If you don't agree with that, that's fine, but that's all I was saying there.

Anyways, very well played in the big game and I look forward to you calling many more raises of mine with AJ.
