Title: Jen busted my ass! Post by: El Yortle on April 27, 2006, 03:59:48 PM Jen busted me in the third hand of this afternoon's Gutshot tournament.
With starting blinds of 25-25 (starting stack = 1500,) I took a limp in middle position with Jc 7c. The board came down 2c 3c 4c. Jen chucked 100 chips in. (There may have been one caller before me, I forget.) I re-raised to 500 chips; Jen went all-in. I thought for about 10 seconds then called, and as I feared my flush was outkicked by Jen's Qc 6c, meaning I didn't even have any outs to the straight flush. I figure percentage-wise it's about 2% for someone to flop a Jack-flush and another player to have flopped a higher flush, so I think I did the mathematically correct thing. Ah well, sorry I didn't quite get a chance to introduce myself, but it was fun whilst I was there. 8) Hope you went on to win it. Title: Re: Jen busted my ass!

For 2 people to flop a flush the odds are ridiculously miniscule, alot less than 2% I believe. Title: Re: Jen busted my ass! Post by: Royal Flush on April 27, 2006, 06:44:16 PM once someone moves in its a little more than 2%....

'' so i limped in with Jc 7c '' is a story with a sad ending Title: Re: Jen busted my ass! Post by: Josh on April 28, 2006, 02:35:20 AM Limping with jack,7 is ridiculous, jack,5 however is an obligatory raise.

At one point when the blinds were something like 600/1200 she was down to 350... what a comeback. I particularly remember this great fold: blinds are 350/700 and she raises my big blind to 2000. I re-raise another 2400 all-in. She thinks for a while and passes deuces. I had kings! How did she know!!? Eventually I came second... we were heads-up, I move in with A6, she called with J6 & hit a flush... what a fish! Title: Re: Jen busted my ass!
