Oops, I meant trips :oops:

I'm doing the stars tournament at 8 so if the Matrix starts around 7 I'll be there.

I was just running pretty well in one of DML's Ante Up games. 630 runners, and I was sitting in 75/167 with about 6.5k in chips. The guy who acts before me raises to 400 and I have been dealt QQ. Now, because of the way these games are, there was almost 2k in the pot already from the ante and blinds. This guy has a similar stack to me, so I push all in to try and pick up the pot which would have elevated me nicely. Instead he makes a lunatic call with AJ and of course the ace hits. At the turn I do pick up back door flush and straight draws (which both miss), but calling for your entire stack with that... :|

*sigh*

Me, probably.

Drummy, you played great for pretty much the entire tourney, so don't worry about the idiots who make calls like that.

I'll explain the way I played that if anyone wants to know.

I think it was somewhere around 18 minutes. This guy wins it, btw...

Christ alive, that call... :shock:

As a side note: Am I the only one who, based on his voice, imagines dabeear to look like Denster? :lol:

DML TAKES IT DOWN!

I've been waiting for AGES to use that!

Fantastic finale, it came down to the top two on the final table HU. Amazing!

Well, for me this was a pretty entertaining game. On a couple of tables I did push all in when I didn't have much of a hand to try and pick up some extra chips, but every time someone seemed to have my number. Best hand for me was this, it meant no HU stage at my table!

Very nerve-wracking playing SpaceJebus for the title heads-up, I knew I had it in me, but it was whether it would happen. Had to do at least one audacious bluff to take the title heads up. Well played SpaceJebus and everyone! Hurrah!

I'm off to a bad start on the pokertube tourney. I raised to 100 with TT and someone with about 600 chips went all-in. I didnt see why they only had 600 chips but I guessed they might be a donk and gone in with anything (especially after watching the last pokertube vid) so I called and they had AA.

Currently 156/159

Edit: And I'm out in 157th.
I was in the small blind with KJ and it got folded all the way around to the button who blatently tried to steal so I shoved all-in with my short stack thinking he would fold (which he did) but the the big blind had a hand and called me with AQ. Basically I played badly :lol:

Good luck everyone else. I'm gonna play another tourney while I watch.

Edit: Started another $11 MTT and went out after about 10 hands. I had A9 on a AK6 board with the nut flush draw. I bet it and the opponent shoves all-in he has a set of 6's and my hand doesn't improve. I'm gonna give up for the night.

Everyone is out now except Sykes. :fp:

Rex went out with A4 vs. 77. Just to make sure I went out I got two callers with my 99, they flipped over AQ & AJ.
