blonde poker forum

Hiya all.

Firstly I'll introduce myself as a few ppl probably don't really know me, my name is Dominic Kay.

I've been on blonde a while though normally lurk around the sports betting area.

Quite a few ppl know me from the live scene though.

Basically I'd like to sell 50% of my action into the event@1.2.

Am trying to become a roll nit like many of my friends, rather than being famous for taking more shots than in a tequilla bar.

It's a 2 day event with a 45 minute clock and a 10k starting stack, def a decent comp.

I'm an online player predominantly but I do play the odd bit of live poker. This year instead of mixing up my online and live roll i'm going for the separate route.

This means I need to sell action for this kind of buy in upwards.

I used to grind stts with the odd mtt, nowadays im starting to really put in more and more volume for mtts online as i feel they are very soft overall.

I won the old $100k guaranteed on mansion and finished 2nd in the $150k on the same site each for around $30k about 3 years back.

I've chopped the 100 rebuy on stars a couple of years ago and have also won a couple of wsop packages on the same site.

I've moved around the sites so much over the years i get seasick.

I mainly play on stars and ipoker nowadays:

Useranme on ipoker is purleydom-you can see my stats on http://www.sharkscope.com/ (http://www.sharkscope.com/)

Live pokerwise i've played in 6 $10k+ events and my game suits a slow/decent structure.

I managed to chop a venetian deepstack this year for just short of $20k, well it was a 5 way one with 12bbs average.

Spent that on paying off debts and giving myself more of an online roll.

I can take payment by stars, tilt or bank transfer, all payments must be made before the event.

Am selling in blocks of 5% and upwards.

Thus 5% costs £33.

All paid up, am in luton and will buy in tonight for tmrws 500, lets do this, i'll post up a report on here afterwards too.

Time to win some mad dimes. :)

Hope you get 2nd ;)

Sorry people, wasn't exactly the best result-busting early in level 4, i'll post a report up in a day or so.

Promised a report on this, will try and remember as much as i can.

The same day as the 500 i bubbled the 200 after making a dubious rr allin against a rock with jj when i shlda at least counted to 5 and thought about the situation.

The guy with 4bbs must have been happy with two 30bb stacks plus clashing, and of crse he has to have zee bullets.


Anyway onto the 550, i arrived at my table to see some familiar faces, and some not so familiar ones.

I won a couple of reasonable pots early on and had chipped up to 12k from the 10k starting stack. Then the following hand arose.

I raise to 150 at 25-50 UTG+1 with  Jc Jd, and pick up 2 callers from the blinds. The small blind (6k) is an accomplished circuit pro who doesn't get out of line massively-but seems to have lost every pot he's played so far, the big blind (14k) seems a little splashy.

Flop comes down  9h 7s 3d, and the small blind donk leads for 275 into the 450 pot, big blind folds and i raise it up to 625. My thinking here was that i had the best hand and an argument can be made for both raising and flatting on such a dry board.

I'd decided i wasn't going to fold more or less, but perhaps that's even more of a reason to flat rather than already thinking about getting in 100bbs on this flop with 1 pair.

I think the poss steam factor of the sb naively entered in2 my head here, and i think that's underestimating him, he isn't going broke with a 9 here often enough.

Sb now makes it 2k and after a small contemplation i set him in and his 7c 3c holds.

Stack cut in half i now find my stack drip, drip, dripping away. Sb from prev hand is now controlling table and it's tough to find a decent spot, a half playable hand might have helped but meh. :)

Eventually i find  Ac Ks with a stack of 3500 and the blinds at 75-150. I make it 450 utg and pick up an early positional caller(like 12kish) and one on the button (30k odd).

Flop comes down all rags with 2 clubs, i checked thinking of rrsng allin with backdoors and some...if only small fe.

Both check and the jack of clubs peels off, now i shld prob jam this in or just check fold, however i go for the 700 lead hoping to take this down or at least see a relatively cheap river if some1 donk peels.

Ep flatter now makes it like 2000 or something, ive got 2350 back and it will cost me about 1300 to win 4k, thus i prob just need to get this in now, hope my ace king in addition to the clubs are all live and bink it, or of crse fold but now its bowl patrol.

I think i momentarily stepped out of my body and decided i cld peel as the 3-1 odds were reasonableish and i cld use my 1k odd in another hand, yeah right mate-bb next hand with 6bbs, just fold or get it in now ffs.

Also just jam or c fold the turn.

Obv missed the river and had to very shamefully cfold the brick river whilst hearing restrained chortles from educators on the table.

Dbld up next hand but cldnt win a 3 way 7k pot all in pre, to put me bk in it at 1-200+25 ante, a hand or 2 later with khqh versus 107std and ajo.

Please feel free to give opinions on any of the hands, especially the JJ V 73 hand, pretty sure that was the pivotal one.

Sorry for not exactly my best performance, i'd like to say it was emotional but it was rather bland. Hopefully will be able to bink next time to make up for this semi debacle- if i decide to do another staking thread, laters peeps.

Sounds like a really bad day at the office mate!  In normal live comps most people just aint at it very often, certainly in this sort of spot, and so the reraise to 2k just tells you you are beat.  I think you knew that really though.

We should catch up soon.  Will prob be at the Empire for the WSOPE sat next Thursday if you're about?

this 7-3 sooted guy sounds like some player, hope he used your chips well :)

I def think i knew in my heart of hearts i was beat there when he made it 2k, but when i'd rrsd to 625 i didn't do this for information, i did it for value.

I fully expected him to 3bet enough of the time with a wide enough range for me not to lay my hand down. I guess a more pot control line looks better in hindsight, but i'd rather not be results orientated.

Having said all this i'm sure u r basically right and i shouldn't bloat pots with 1 pair so much live, especially so early on.

I may come down for the wsope sat mate, can't actually play that side event due to stuff on, and thus can't play the sat unless they give cash-lol.

Be good to catch up tho and watch u tear up the field!!


Next time be on tilt for once please and show up with random 9's ffs.

Oh and wdwd.  :)

I can't play it either but figured I could just sell it if i fluke a few bad beats over the evening.  :)
