Vegas & The Aftermath - Diary

[tikay]

Done a few chips when I flopped both nut draws, but missed the lot. 28,900.

[Omm]

Just woke up and have read the last few pages, nice to see we are that bit richer. Sounds like your having a blast.

Not so much "bit richer" as "less poor".

The last week has gone pretty well really, some of the damage has been repaired, but we are still in a bit of a hole. Absolutely loved the last week.

My table move has been a bit of a mare.

It's extremely aggro, with 3 good pros, all stacked up, and they are just running over the table, I just can't get in the game.

Have dribbled down to 23,000 after a few pots went the wrong way.

Last level of the day just started, blinds now 500-1,000.

216 from 815 remain.

Need to find a hand I can re-jam with, so they can't outplay me by pushing me off.

I'm sure all stalkers had written off every penny on transfer.......only because that's what the gambling books say,right?!

All winnings now.

Ha, that's a better way of looking at it.

Jeez, this table is so damn hard, the toughest table all the time I have been here, undecided whether to try and find a spot, or sit quietly and hope for a better table tomorrow.

198 left, 90 will get paid.

[Doobs]

No need to get funky in PLO8 9 handed.   Good luck

[tikay]

Busto, on penultimate hand of the day.

Had pretty much decided to bring 15 bigs back tomorrow, but could not find a fold against super aggro lad who re-potted me.

I had......

He had.......

 

So I was not in great shape at all, just hoping for a flush or low.

Flop was 5-3-9 (no suits) so I thought I might get the chop, but the 3 paired, followed by a Jack.

I had a nice hand, & had potted it pre, but when he repotted, I should have taken the hint I think.

Really had my mind set on coming back for day two and getting in the money, but in a way, my hand is good enough to go to war with against most hands.

[Doobs]

Played perfectly Tikay.  Unlucky, we've had a good run.  Onwards and upwards.

[tikay]

Was really disappointed when I bust, I could barely believe it, I just stared at the board for a moment and then realised it was all over.

The lip went a bit curly, but thinking about it, I don't think I should fold that hand when playing what would be 15 bigs upon resumption tomorrow.

A burger, chips and a brace of choc ices will soon ease the disappointment.

Night all.

Unlucky Tikay. There's always tomorrow.

Really enjoyed reading this diary, don't think I've missed a post in months. Learn new things all the time. It has been an especially fun read during Vegas and even got me to play a Big O tournament which I never would have done; I enjoyed it  than any other game this summer.

Commiserations on the bust out, they always hurt so much more at the end of the day but congratulations on a hugely successful Vegas trip all the same!

[Doobs]

Folding would seem bad vs described villian.  Do we get 1% of the choc ices?

[booder]

Useless.

Stop being such a pussy! We had a good run!
