AK still owns my soul.

I was playing some cash games again earlier (NL25) and after an hour I was up about $30. I'm just about to leave with a nice little profit but then on my last hand I get dealt AA. I raise pre-flop, donk reraises, I shove, donk calls. He has 45 offsuit and rivers a straight :fp:

I lose all of my profit plus a bit extra in that one hand because a donk decides to put over $30 in pre with 45 offsuit

Discussion time guys what do people think about Daniel Negreanu's play with his AA min raise with just the big blind to act in the ME?

I actually think it was a good play had it been against an better player as im guessing he was hoping to be re-raised or possibly just out play them post flop.

Hello lads

Thanks again to Rex, who helped me sign up to Celeb Poker

Back from today until the 9th/10th of September, and then from the 21st September onwards, for GRSOP reasons.

Other than that, I've really not wanted to play any poker

I would have thought the big win would change my mind on that one. We'll see if I can get motivated later on! Nice to see how people are getting on here, some cool developments. Sat has the biggest roll now?

I don't think so. It was around $900 but I'm down to about $730 now. Hopefully I can build it back up fairly quickly though.

Hope to see you at the tables again

Edit: Here's an update on Boku who was turning $5 into $100k. After just 6 weeks he is up to $24,635 including bonuses :shock:

PsychicSykes is in charge of organising the GRSOP.

GRSOP

The buy in's available are (Excluding rake) $1, $3, $5, $10 and so on. Unfortunately Rebuys are not available so I was thinking along these lines.

$3 No Limit Hold Em Heads Up Shootout
$3 Pot Limit Omaha
$10 No Limit Hold Em Main Event (lol)

The tourneys can be set up easily so you guys just let me know when (Maybe make a weekend of it?) and if you want an event added or changed etc

Sounds pretty good. I'm away from the 12th-21st as I say (Denmark), but as long as the ME (lol) isn't there I'm happy.

Soundsa good to me. The smack that would go down if I won the Omaha bracelet....

:lol:

That should be fine for me as well, I'd also be up for a cheap game of 7-card stud for a laugh.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **Psychic** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 2:50 pm

Ooh, if anyone else wants a 7 Card Stud event I'll put it in nice and cheap. If numbers are too low we can just have it as a preliminary event prior to the real deal kicking off.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **Slayerx** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 3:21 pm

I'm up for stud.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **DML** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 3:53 pm

Go on do Stud.

:lol:

I think we can rustle up somne non-poker players for the Main Event as a special event by making a new thread for it. Normal GR-ites won't come in here, bet we can find some fis.....I mean extra players!

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **Drumstick** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 4:37 pm

Rex, myself and Aaron (Rocketman) are up for Stud.

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **Slayerx** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 5:08 pm

I'm looking forward to this its going to be cool need to sort out team speak etc so I can tell you all how much you suck and how you can't even spell P-O-K-E-R !!!!!!!!

I'll also make an effort to record my hole cards :mrgreen:

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **Red Devil** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 5:12 pm

Yeah I'd be up for this. Maybe at a $5 buy-in level?

PostRe: The Poker Thread - Success! by **satriales** » Fri Aug 28, 2009 5:20 pm

I'm up for stud. Unlike omaha I've actually played stud before.
