Well done for unregistering James - something I was guilty of NOT doing.
Although playing cash now, it is easier - just go away for an hour.
That GUKPT sat was a cruel one. Going well until I get AA in 1st position (new to the table, but noticed a couple of really aggressive players) so limped in (blinds 100 200). No one raised
. Even the SB folded. Gregior in the BB
So heads up, flop K 2 10 rainbow (with one club).
Gregiro bets out 600 - leaving himself 900 and I set him all in. He cant pass a king here can he? No he puts in the rest of his chips and shows
.
Turn
River -
(just to rub it in a little)
He then gets it all in preflop with QQ and finds a caller with KJ o/s - who duly spikes the K.
That left me a shortie but got it back to 3800 when I am moved to Lord W's table. I am the BB with
and Lord W is UTG and min raises. I am throwing this away, but 2 other people decide to flat call his min raise. Was too tempting for me so I complete.
Flop comes 2 spades - its all I need and ship it all in (first to act). All pass cept for mr KJ o/s guy from earlier who calls with 88 (no spade) - and 88 holds.
I also crashed out of the 40k on DTD - should of known when I ran AA into AA for a split pot and 20chips profit lol
The hand that did the damage was mostly my fault as I missed an oppotunity to win the pot and didnt bet the turn.
Another BB situation, I have J 9, guy in early position min raises (he had done this a few times with Ax) 3 other people call so I feel obliged. Flop A J 9 (two spades). He bets out 300, others fold and I min raise him to 600, he calls. Turn another spade, he checks and I made the mistake of checking behind him. River came Ace. He had A4
Still, a profitable session on the cash for £280 made up for it a little.
I sooooooooooo miss playing MTT's though.
