I'm going to guess that you...did? Crush the table this time or just wait for them to give you their chips?

It was easy. I won 5 all ins against me, and each time except for one where it was a race, I had the better hand. I played some demon poker last night playing the people, and quite frankly its showing me how much better I am live than online.

Did you see in the WSOP this year when that guy hit quad aces and he lost to a royal flush :lol: Apparently the odds of it happening are over 2 billion to 1.

Yeah, and then the retard who hit it goes on about the idiot sitting across from him and about "everyone watch that show!", pretty sick.

"If this happened to Phil Hellmuth, the table would no longer be here." :lol:

Just playing a $10 knockout on FullTilt. Down to 33 players from the 90 that started and I'm currently 3rd overall. I've knocked 3 people out so far, earning myself $6.

I have a good feeling about this one (which means I'll probably get knocked out in the next 5 mins :fp: )

I predict I will come 10th and just miss out on the cash. It's only a small tournament anyway, I prefer the ones with 500+ players.

That didn't last very long. I always play really bad towards the end when the blinds are big :fp:

I don't think that ATs was too bad a call. The guy that went all-in had just previously gone all-in with 66 and there was a guy ahead of me who was so short stacked he had to call the all-in with anything, so it was a good chance to knock 2 people out (and collect their bounties).
Turns out the guy that went all-in had QJo and the one behind me had QTo, so I did have the best hand.

After that I was so short stacked (5000 chips, blinds at 1000) that I had to push all-in with K high to try and steal the blinds, but it didn't quite work.

No, I wasn't criticising the play, it was fine. Just the fact it scuppered you, that's all.
