blonde poker forum

No not Crackerjack you muppets ... (that will be lost on the younger members of the forum ...god I am old)

Its that time of the week again, pit your poker skills against over a thousand opponents (and about 30 blondes) ... you know how it works by now ...

For those who dont, we all gatecrash the 7.30 $10 NLHE $10k G'teed comp on blonde, and last luckbox standing scoops some added value courtesy of blonde.

if we get 10 the last surviving blonde will get $30 into their account

if we get 20 the last surviving blonde will get a personalised blondepoker polo shirt

if we get 30 or more the last surviving blonde will get the shirt and $50 into their account

Obviously the added prizes are only awarded to those playing the comp on the blonde skin.

Welcome to blonde chap, nice to have you with us.

Welcome to the madhouse Paul.

The standard in these is terrible.  Should suit you perfectly   ;)

OI!!!!!!!!!!!!

Any more ??  i count 24.

I'm in Kev, though I may be going out to watch the old firm game.

Dougie,.

26

I'm in blonderedsi hoping to last at least as long as to the KO in Celtic game :)

Great stuff Kev!  Delighted you've joined us for this one.

in - and i see Kev has got me on the list all ready.

in the nick of time, I'm in.

XL top please ;)

29 blondes in ... GOOD LUCK ALL

no m3boy?

;whistle;

Thanks Laxie.

Theres no beer though! *sob*

Speak for yerself...I'm already on the second one.   rotflmfao

Good luck everyone!!!   ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader; ;cheerleader;

Where did you get it?


Ive tried the lobby, searched high and low, and no sign of boozeage!

good luck to all (and first timer luck to mise!)

breaking news.... I won a pot.... up to 1690 best I've ever done in this.......

I'm out already.  Top 2 pair on the flop is counterfeited by the river to take me down.  This poker lark is starting to get frustrating, but probably because I'm still suffering from lack of sleep after the week-end.  Ah well, will have a rest and come back to rail ye in a bit.

GOOD LUCK!!!   

Bad luck Laxie, but at least it gives the rest of us a chance to get a t-shirt.

3rd in chips at the mo on 7440.....

gone 769 pfffffffffffffffff

I'm out.

JJ v AA v KK

AJK on the board...

and gone

God i hate this tournament

See you next Wednesday.

Did you have 72?

LOL wp mate and ta for the support

neverends

Im out

KK vs K7os (i raise in early pos he calls)

flop comes 359

 8 on turn he goes all in

i call

he hits a 6 on river

good luck all

STANDARD!!

standard

welcome 2 wednesday donkfests

I think it's safe to say I was first blonde out (running my flopped top set into a flush draw that hit, on river), do I win anything for that?

oh..........

 BUTT MUNCH!!! out 618th  bloody pocket 8's  

i'm going to get a bottle of wine!

im still in with 1005. only good news is ive rounded up my betfair book on the celtic game and will get back my buy in + a little cream on top so night got a complete waste

on 1160 and card dead as anything. In the wrong seat clearly as the chip leader is sat next to me!

out ... gl all left

now on 1785 after my 74 in bb vs sbs A5 made trip 7s lol

SIGH

Nearly made the break, but Neeko got my 3350 chips with his 10 10 v my AK all in pre ... at least they went to a good blonde home.

2430 atb

$4876 at break

Geo

Made the break with 6775, but no doubt they will all go in one hand like every week when they call my preflop re-raise with 10 7.

incredibly this interloper has 9500

god they call light here

when does the standard improve?

when u get to HU?

amazing garbage poker on display

On 7400 at the break

A huge hand earlier my AA held up against 46 and Q6 on a 345 flop

turn K

river 3

brings relief and a approx 5K pot for Kev :)

GL all left in hour 2

785 at break. totally card dead. time for some of my desperate short stack play to come off

lol - I was ahead + I will use them well. (well maybe)

i'm a goner been watching football and folding too many hands prob and decided to go with  Aspades 9d on a  Qd 9s 7d board after big stack set me all in with  Js Ts was good till jack on the river. prob should have pushed flop but wasnt folding tbh and wanted more  :)

gl all left in

still in with 3.5k, thanks to a double up and sitting out for half an hour.

Unlucky Eck and cheers for the message, sorry, wasn't paying attention at the time.

1770 now.. my QQ all in was called by K5 of all things :s

whoopsie,  I'm out, JJ v KK, no surprises and I'm out.  I should probably have folded to the limp utg then shove when I raised, but seperating the fish from the rest is hard sometimes.

GL those left in :)

oot.

ge elll doods!

up to 5540..All in with KJ vs J5 on J5x flop. Rivered King. Next hand allin pf with AA AQ calls off 50% of his stack...no miracles

Who calls a raise with 74 suited when its for a third of your stack? Russions apparently.

...or blondes.  Although off-suit is the better hand.

333rd

pushed on button+1, bb called for his stack with 66 and I missed my gazillion outs after the flop lol

good luck everyone left

I went allin pf with mine :)

Does eveyone start time stalling on ipoker with 100+ till the money?

Well done Dino, a very well deserved 15th.

Oh well 15th. I hate jacks,they look so good till you play them.

wp Dino  ;applause; ;applause;

good job Dino :)

wp Dino.

I'll be back for this next for sure. Good criac. wp blonde.

Well done Dino and everyone else who cashed!!!   ;applause; ;hattip; 

Went off to the pub and missed the end, but delighted to see a few Blondes got close.  See you all next week!

Thanks all.
I perhaps should have been more patient at the end but am more used to the sky structure and if you get towards the last dozen there is not the time to wait.
The pocket jacks did look nice though,pity about his pocket queens.

Actually speaking of waiting.


Should I have waited for a better spot here??

Down to the last 56 (I'm in 33rd)

I have 22500 with the blinds at 1200/2400

One huge stack at the table who is btn, 2 with less than 10k stacks the rest are similiar-ish sizes to me.

Anyway I am in EP with A8s and blinds going up in one minute.

Shove here or fold and wait for a possible better spot?

PHA Board.. But I would say you wait for better spot..

You can find the PHA here:

http://blondepoker.com/forum/index.php?board=24.0

Just be sure to wear yer armbands...the water can get a bit rough in there.  lol  That said, if you read them with a thick skin and an open mind (try to think 'outside the box') you might find it very helpful.

As for the hand you mention, I would fold and wait for a better spot.  Granted, I have a bad habit of folding pocket J's at late stages of tourneys, so what do I know?   rotflmfao

I would shove.

I would pass

I pass there too, I would rather shove with 78 than A8 for the reason that 99% of the time you are going to be massively dominated by a bigger Ace.
