Hi All,
Well I played in the tourny last night, which was a bit annoying, ended up being a 18 runner sit and go with a 7,500 stack and 30 minute clock... A good standard of poker but to start with alot of stealing going on... Anyway I went out in 11th after hitting a set on the flop to someone cracking me on the river all in after he thought his pocket J's were good which with a 8 high board on the flop is a fair point...
Anyway so to last nights cash antics, I sat down with £100 and £100 behind... Was very card dead to start with getting nothing, and hitting nothing on my big blind... espcially with someone trying to nick my blind every time, after the rest of the table playing with me the last night knowing its not the best thing to do...
After about a hour... I have lost about £30 in paying blinds and seeing flops with J, 10 suited and stuff and having people pot and re pot leaving me with a gutshot and stuff after the flop and not having the odds or value to call.
I pick up A, A on the button, and Ill be honestly I have been attacking 2 certain players blinds all night... so no one really knew what I was playing last night... I pot it to make it £10 and get two callers... Making the pot £36 after the limpers laying down etc... Flop Comes down A, 5, 2... First to act puts in £15 (A,K)... 2nd person re raises another £30 (2, 2)... I re raise to £45 as im wondering if someone has a straight draw (Thoughts on this play? Wierd raise amount tho)... First to act then throws in his chips, another £4 on top all in and we go to the turn 3 handed... Pot at £196... Turn comes 5... (im now so far in front... linford christie wouldnt catch me in his hayday...) I check... He announces all in for £67 quid... I call and take down a nice £328
Best hand of the night was tho... Im BB, Somone Straddles for £4 (Pot 7) someone supper staddles for £8 (Pot £15) someone mega straddles for £16 (Pot £31) and someone mega mega straddles for £32 making the pot £63... I have decided im going to double the pot in the dark... Small blind folds... and I make it £63 to play and the pot £126, Yes I know its stupid but thought it was a laugh... in the dark... folds to mega staddle who calls and makes up his bit and so does mega mega straddle...
I look down and im running with K, K... Happy days... Pot is now sitting at £202 with out seeing a flop and I have £300 behind... Flop comes down 8 high rainbow... I put myself in front and check... someone then raises it by £50... and the other bloke calls... £50... pot is £300... I raise another £50 on top... raise is called by both players and pot is now at £600... With £200 behind... I hit a set on 4th street... and push all in... one bloke calls for the value of having £63 left and the other bloke lays down saying my A, Q is not good and hoping to turn a an A...
Pot is £726 take it take it down within him showing J, J.... River doesnt do anything and I take the pot down... Very happy two nights on the trout...
ANYWAY... This is when it got serious and I was lucky the bloke didnt have more behind as I was going to be screwed...
A, 3 Suited is on me I flat call and it goes to a flop which comes and I flop a wheel with 2, 4, 5... and pot it... then gets re potted and i smooth call and yes he is big blind and checks it out with 3, 6 and at the monet, Unless a 6 hits the deck im so far behind and dont know it, unless I hit runner runner flush... Anyway he raises it again I call again.... Turn comes a 7... I put my self in front... he raises it i re raise him and he announces all in... I have to call and lose £400 in one pot but im still happy walking out £126 quid up with £326 in my wallet...
At this point, I bid farewell and off I go... Very dissapointed, but I seriously thought I was 3 years in front...so who knows hey... A, 3 suited in cash, definatly a pre flop raise from now on lol...
So then, Im now £798 up, for 2008, after taking my sit downs out... So im happy not a bad start to the year, just a tad dissapoint with my tourny play...
Any thoughts let me know
