WSOP - I WANT IN
98  Poker Forums / Poker Hand Analysis / Re: Ian Gascoigne V German Rick - 1-3 Vic on: January 29, 2013, 02:22:02 PM
Ok. At some serious risk of flame here is the hand from my perspective. I have only just recently started to visit this part of Blonde and have found it very useful and beneficial. I visit to try and improve my game and am very appreciative of the people who contribute. So here we go;

The first thing is that the ' hand ' does not exist in a vacuum. It was about 3 hours into a pretty miserable session and that as you will see is really important to how I played the hand.

Pre.Game.
                    I wasn't that bothered about going to the Vic and was pretty tired from work.My pre game mood was pretty flat. This affected my attitude and my mind set. Although I have met some decent people at the Vic I find a lot of the regs a little miserable and the ambiance depressing.

Early hands.
                  Not a lot to report except I got involved in a big hand against one of the big stack nits. Out of position I was betting into the nit out of position with 10,J on a Q,Q,10 board. Even when he snap called my re raise  I didn't give up and ended up losing a bit.I was really tilted which on top of my pre.match mood this was not good. I decided to move to the 1/3 table and get myself re focused. During this period I also watched Ed get coolered a couple of times,playing perfect but getting outdrawn blah blah blah. He eventually got it all in with AA on a King high board only for the guy to hit two pair on the river.

The Hand.
               I had played a few hands but not many and was getting a little 'bored' ( one of many faults to my game ). Coupled with what had been happening I decided to get a grip and start to play position and play it very aggressively. So I was on the button and I think it was 3 way and I called a small raise. The flop came down,it checked round and I bet the £40 to take it down there and then like the button had done on about 80% of the previous hands. Boom I get check raised !
                 I was very unhappy ( all to do with the previous 3 hours). However I recognise the move. Who do I know who check raises the flop like that ? Oh it's me and it's a flush draw. What do I like least when I do that ? Being put Allin. So that what I did. As my chips crossed the line with second pair I immediately realised that my stack wasn't quite big enough and that my opponent was very close to getting the odds to call. Eventually he folds and in relief I stupidly flip over 9,5ss.

Thoughts.
                   I am not very pleased with the hand and I am sure you guys who play 1,000's of hands a day will find the whole thing a little tilting. I am a recreational player,I like to play in a nice environment with interesting people. I find the game seriously fascinating and I have exactly the wrong temperament for the game. I took the check raise ' personally ' and loved going all in and putting the pressure on what I perceived to be a very calm and analytical player.
                   Yes I won the pot and learned a little more about the game and myself.


Flame away but try and be kind.Life is short.
Ok Mr Ian! First of all what happen during this hand is that u visualised it was Mitch an developed a mindset that u wanted to win this pot at all costs!
2nd point! How could you do that to German Rick he's a lovely guy an you an him could be soul mates.
3rd point ! How lucky he thought u were solid an not the type of guy who lets his emotions get the better of him !
4th point !  How blessed he has folded as he has to call if he's goin rerasie fold with that hand on flop !
5th point! Was Rick winning alot in this game ? As him about to go for dinner may of affected his judgement here as a bit surprised as I think he plays good if a little abuseble at times !

On another thread the original Poker Million final came up in conversation.

http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/event.php?a=r&n=633

Notice the massive pay jumps.. £1 million was guaranteed for first and that meant huge differentials between the top 3 finishers prize money.

When they got to 3 handed Duthie and Dobson played a massive allin preflop.

John 4 bet shoved with A2 and Dobbo made the call with 33.

John spiked the ace, knocked out Dobbo and took a huge chip lead which he parlayed into outright victory and a prize of a coooool million.

Duthie went onto to use that million to found the EPT and he also became a member of Team Pokerstars and has considerable success on and off the table since. http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=64190

Dobbo would have been considered by most to be a better player at the time. But the loss devastated him and he was never the same again. And he's not had a cash since 2004. http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=69

Just imagine if that ace hadn't come. Very likely there would be no EPT today. John would almost certainly not be the poker celeb he is today and Dobbo would have the million in his pocket and I reckon would have gone on to mucho success in the poker world.

Has one hand of poker ever changed your life?


Just to sidetrack your thread for a min! I used to play alot wt Ian back in the day , whatever happened to him as havnt seen him in years? Was a really nice guy an we got along well( which may surprise you lol)reminds me of the days when Hamish Shar an Devilfish were fighting for the same girl!

If you had read the thread we actually discussed this.

He was inside for a bit, but he's out now and he's a poker dealer somewhere we think.

BTW. It's obvious that you think I don't like you.

This isn't true, I have no opinion, because I don't know you.

I do know for sure you can be very annoying at the poker table.

This opinion I believe I passed on to you in no uncertain manner.

But I bear you no ill will.

Good luck.
Sorry just read the op an responded to that! All updated now ! Ty ty, No hard feelings this side , I was probaly in the wrong I just spoke without thinking which I commonly do !

In today's Times, it is reported that Remy turned down Newcastle because "Newcastle is in the North, where it is cold", & "Harry has been trying to sign me for 3 years". It also states that Newcastle offered him £40k per week, & QPR offered £80k per week, but "money had nothing to do with it".

His agent stated that if QPR are relegated, he will demand a transfer. 
Do you think Qpr recent additions to the squad will get them to survive this year or do you think it's not going to be enough this time round ?

Thanks for the support lads, I ran pretty good to get there, just couldn't hold on long enough I guess! The brazlilian lad that won is an absolute gent. I played with him on day 2 and day 3 and he was pretty solid but mostly just really polite and a good sport re: the banter. Well deserved win.
