Finished 8th or 7th for a measly $30.

I min raise c/o with J8 , SB flats flop comes jack hi.

The villian has called my 2 late position raised and donked pot bet every flop. He has done it once vs another player too. With a jack hi flop i decide to reship and he turns over JA. BUSTO!

I'm going to try satellite to me and the 6 max next week.

Qualified to a satellite to WCOOP event 22. No idea what the standard of play will be like but at the moment it's not very good. It's a rebuy as well so no idea how to play it. :lol:

EDIT: Just doubled up to a bit under 10k flopping a FH with KK vs 88s. I can fold til the end of the rebuy period now right?

Jut play tight and you should be able to get even more chips as the play is very bad during the rebuy period.

Ended up turning in to a crap shoot when everyone only had about 10bb. 90min rebuy period + 5 min blinds = gooseberry fool.

Just got owned at poker at the local casino.

Played cash straddled and woke up with AA raises gets one caller from a guy who doesnt know what he's doing.

Goes all in after the flop I ask if he has anything he says just a pair what he meant was a set

$50 for 3000 FPP's on the Pokerstars Store atm. Not a bonus, it's cash put straight into your account and any VIP level can claim it.

Excellent, now I have some money on Stars :mrgreen:

Edit: Just had a really sick hand in a MTT on fulltilt. I raised with JJ from UTG and get one caller. Flop is all tens. I bet and he calls. Turn is a 4 and I bet high enough that i'm committed for the river. He calls. River is a queen and he puts me all-in for my last few chips and I have to call. He has Q7

Edit: Bah, and another one in the other MTT I was playing:

He calls 2/3rds of his stack pre-flop with A6s vs my AQ and he flops the flush

Got some tasty set over set action during some rush poker today 8-)

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **Slayerx** » Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:34 pm

Anyone else on FT play the 6 man super turbos where you start with 300 chips with blinds 15/30?

Been grinding them today played about 20 of them now with a small profit at the $5 level.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - GRSOP by **satriales** » Sat Sep 11, 2010 9:44 pm

I was down to 20 chips in a tournament with blinds 10/20 and I was BB next hand and somehow I've managed to comeback and now have 1500 chips

Edit: As I was typing this I just lost 500 chips with KK v A8 but I've still got 1000 left to work with.

Update: Now i'm up to 4600 chips which is basically 50BB so I'm right back in it :mrgreen:

Update2: I bubbled the first tournament with AKs losing to 88. In the other tournament I was playing I reached the cash but stacks are all fairly short at this stage. It is folded to me in the button and I raise with AK. BB has AA and knocks me out.

Sounds like he played it right though

Should all be okay. I'll let you know otherwise!
