The Poker Thread

Cashed for $20 in that Summer Festival thing. One guy limps in MP and I have about 12-14bb and look down at A9 in the SB. I reckon I can take down the pot as if I shove that guy has to call off most of his stack. He calls and turns over A10.

I'm enjoying playing like a donk in an 11$ tourney at the moment. Maybe calling a bit loose but making some lol plays :lol:

Definately made a couple of bad moves and didn't bet my set hard enough, but got a huge double up with AK vs JJ, now in 11th out of about 175

Only 90 people left, then this happens:

Got a few chips left, will have to see what I can do

Back in contention. Got JJ in the SB, and called all in to a reship from one guy who had J3! He hit a flush draw but it held. Then got 88 and called on the button. Took it down on a flop of 797. Back into about 30th

TID Nova.

Crap. Not sure if I made an awful move. Called with 44 in the BB to a loose guy. flop comes a rainbow J53. I check, he bets, and I decide he's not hitting the board there often. I move, and he has JK. Maybe it was just a Matasow explosion.... :cry:

Just made my first straight flush in ages

Edit: it was 7-J all diamonds and with 3 diamonds on the board. He shipped the river and turns over 45 DD

Back to not being able to win a flip. In a few minutes I've had Aces and Queens cracked while at the same time flopping a flush draw and not hitting and running what's left of my small stack in to KK with AJ.

WIN.

Home in an hour 4.40 anyone ?

Sorry didn't end up going on net still a bit up and down and don't want to be risking real money.

So I'm starting off my new 4tabling cash career. I think to myself if I can just get a positive first all in I'll be happy. The first stacking off comes a good 20 minutes into the session, where I hit middle set with Jacks on a KJ6 board. I cbet the flop, he raises a lot, I reraise him all in. He calls and shows AT. The turn is a Queen. :fp:

Made up for this later on when I flop top pair and a flush draw with AJ on an A95 board. I get it all in eventually on the flop to see I'm up against 55. The river is a club so I'm saved. I don't feel bad because I had 31% compared with the other guy in the previous hand with 16% :shifty:

.

Currently 293 hands in and I'm 199BB in profit, which is 67.92BB/100BB. Imagine if I could keep that up by the time I hit 10k hands :shifty:

. Poker Pro lol m8 :shifty:

. Shame it's bound to drop to 6/100 or something rubbish like that.

What stakes are you starting off with Jamie?

Day 4 Concludes - Our Final Table Is Set!

That brings an end to Day 4 of the $50,000 Poker Player's Championship. We've whittled the field down from 21 to our final 8 who will return tomorrow under the bright lights and ESPN cameras to play it out for the Chip Reese Memorial Trophy and $1.55 million in prize money.

For only the second time in World Series of Poker history, a pair of brothers has made the final table together. Ross and Barny Boatman were the first, finishing seventh and ninth in a 2002 pot-limit Omaha event, and now Robert and Michael Mizrachi will go toe-to-toe tomorrow to see who wins family bragging rights. While Robert already has a WSOP bracelet, earned in the 2007 $10,000 World Championship Pot-Limit Omaha event, Michael is looking for his first one.

Also gunning for their first bracelet are David Baker, Mikael Thuritz, David Oppenheim and Vladmir Schmelev. Daniel Alaei picked up his first bracelet last summer in the $10,000 Omaha Hi-Lo World Championship, while John Juanda is the veteran of this group with four WSOP wins including the 2008 WSOP-Europe Main Event.

Here's a look at the official final table seating assignments and chip counts:

David Baker - 3,095,000
Mikael Thuritz - 2,300,000
Vladimir Schmelev - 1,925,000
John Juanda - 2,620,000
Daniel Alaei - 1,705,000
Michael Mizrachi - 2,620,000
David Oppenheim - 460,000
Robert Mizrachi - 3,125,000

Join us from 3pm tomorrow live from the Rio as we bring this baby home.

Don't count them chickens yet Jamie. Long way to go.

Can we have a chat on msn/TS later.

Cheers for the updates sniffer.
