Title: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 05:45:13 PM
Hey blonde!

It's been a while!

I have 20% to sell in the aspers 888 main day 1d tonight. 88k gte but prize pool is already at 140kish with one flight to go.

Last day 1 is a turbo but will still present good value for sure.

I have sold numerous times on here before, however as I am on my phone in the crappy Aspers wifi I can't post Hendon mobs etc

Will provide updates when I can!

Will be playing regardless.

Payment via bank it stars. Selling at spot.   10% is £22

Cheers all,

Chris

just sent.  good luck vs aggro man.   Want lots of J5 vs 82 all in pre I knew he was at it shennanigans.  If that fails, plan B is to win the thing.

Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 07:29:07 PM
Haha we got up to 40k early with trip queens and a very fishy guy bluffed the river and mucked.

Then Decided to follow your request and bluff some back to him so have about 35k at 100/200

15 min blinds first 6 levels then 20 mins till the end of the day


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 07:33:03 PM
Pretty sure we have a table that we will have chunks or home tucked up in bed before 8.30.

Just to confirm that Terry Jordan just sat down and made it 1600 blind 😂😂


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 08:37:32 PM
We made he break! And end of late reg, blinds going to 20min now. I'd expect it to whiten down a little. Pp over 150k I think!

Up to 60k ish, had aces last hand before the break, guy made it 3k at 800bb, one peels I make it 12k on the button and they both fold. Sigh


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!

Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 09:25:11 PM
We stacked the aggro guy so we have had to cut the rofling around for another day.
Have about 75-80k at 800/1600

Last level today is 2/4K I believe


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: Tal on December 02, 2017, 09:30:48 PM
Good luck. Really enjoy these comps. Good structure for the price and nice atmosphere.

What sort of hat are you wearing today?


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 09:39:48 PM
No hat today. Gone he au naturelle look. Picture wouldn't attach as the file is too big

Might get the wooly out tomorrow if you come and do the updates tal! ❤️❤️


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 09:44:43 PM
Table move. Sappiano 2 to or left with a big stack. Probably means gg us!

Still about 95k at 1/2k 300a


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 10:12:21 PM
Another break made. Have about 90k with 3 levels next, 1200/2400 next.



Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 10:27:49 PM
Won a flip AQ v 99 ace on dat flop

130k at 12/2400


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 02, 2017, 11:20:14 PM
Good news, made day 2 with 113k so 22bbs going back to.

Had 140 but bluffed off in the penultimate hand which if it gets through means I come back with 200+.  Think it's ok and the guy tanked for a while

Have a sweat at least, now to head home and back for 1pm


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!

Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 10:37:08 AM
Woke up feeling fresh, still mulling over that bluff in the last 2 hands.

Had a great start to the day, crumpets in the toaster, walk back in5 mins later to realise that I hadn't turned it on at the wall.
On the plus side though did have a chocolate off the Christmas tree.

 Crumpets, had an interesting debate with my dad who swears only savoury goods can go on them, butter/ cheese etc. I'm much. More of a raspberry jam man. What are blondes thoughts? I hope I haven't let Doobs down in particular with my choice of spread as I wouldn't want to feel I've mislead the thread



Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: Doobs on December 03, 2017, 11:15:19 AM
The bluff is fine.  Probably only has to work one time in three to be the dogs. 

Crumpets is a very solid choice of champion's breakfast.   I am a butter only man, but if you are feeling good with your choice, then that is good too.

Fedor would tell you that you should eat bird seed and protein shakes for breakfast, but what has he ever won?   

No regrets.



Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: RED-DOG on December 03, 2017, 12:11:56 PM
Pre-breakfast crumpet ftw.

Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 01:14:19 PM
Just about made the start. A2 and Blackwall tunnel are not the nicest to negotiate!

Won the first hand we out a chip into, 118 left 72 pay. Playing for da winnn! £30,001 for us later


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 01:23:55 PM
Chipped up 3 hands without being all in to 170k. 35bbs is much nicer and the table looks a good one I think.


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 01:36:56 PM
Won a couple more hands and won jacks v 77 for 120k each and stacked the guy.

340k now or so nearly double average


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 02:17:59 PM
Got to 400k then lost one fairly big one and won a couple smaller Ines. 300k and change with 10mine left of 3/6k. 90 left


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: Doobs on December 03, 2017, 03:11:37 PM
Way more succesful than any recent attempts I have made at poker.  I can see the future. 


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 03:12:09 PM
Tale of 2 levels really.

First level 113 into 400k

Second level 400 to 200. Nothing major just a couple of raise folds, c bet shut down etc

6 off the money, have 21bbs going back so still fine. Just got to wait for the spot

33 left, get into 1k cash territory with 27 left

Went down to 520 and got very lucky to double to 1.1m! Ak v QJ. 3 bet ripped over a cut off open for 16 bbs. He was big stack and opening a lot so I think all is ok there

Another break for Doobs.

26 players left. Have 785k going into 20/40k so only 20bb but am probably the 3rd biggest stack at the table so going to have to be patient and flip well!


Title: Re: Aspers 888 main tonight!
Post by: verndog158 on December 03, 2017, 07:56:33 PM
Had no dinner break so glad I had the extra crumpet with breakfast this morning.

Post by: DropTheHammer on December 04, 2017, 04:30:35 PM
Thanks all!

Was an interesting FT that took 2.5 hrs for 10th place to bust. I had a 10BB or less stack from the last two tables so only had one move until we got to three-handed! Heads-up was fun - well played Verndog you thoroughly deserved the win. It was good to meet you and a crazy coincidence that we live quite near each other - appreciate you going out of your way and losing a bit more sleep to drop me back  :)

Post the winner's pic you had taken please and also the trophy...if it ever turns up!

Aspers have a good £220 torunament in a couple of weeks time that I play every year called the Christmas Cracker (if anyone fancies it?) - at the end of level 3 each table has a mystery prize (usually an electronics item worth around £150) given to the winner of a face-up Omaha hand. One year I won the hand and entry into one of their £300 tournies and ended up coming 6th. Aspers also dished out some free tickets to the Christmas Cracker for last night's FT, which was unexpected and generous of them.

Winners photo attached! The trophy hadn't arrived yet apparently!

Was a great and odd final table at the same time. Very cagey and drawn out, and then a couple of mind blowing hands that really came from nowhere

Really appreciate the rail and support guys, it has been a fairly trying year for me work wise, so this result really has come at the perfect time in the run up to xmas!

I have always loved selling stakes on the blonde forums and have had some success, and try to make the thread as entertaining and as bad beat moan free as possible. And yes Tal, I'm still hatless!
