Chompy's Recidivist 2010 G Luton League/Scrabble thread

[TightEnd]

Don't think I have ever seen anything like last night

My starting table has the famed WPIS in Seat 1, Randoms in 2-4, me in 5, Darvish in 6 and randoms 7-8

8,500 and 30 mins starting and we lose three players in the first orbit


I just have to tell you a few hands

Third hand of the comp. UTG makes it 350 at 25-50. Six callers. I pass the bb lol

flop 5-2-2. Small blind leads, WPIS calls, button raises. Small blind ships. WPIS calls all in. Button passes

SB 7-2. WPIS 4-3!!! turn A and WPIS knocks the small blind out


Second level

Six limpers (standard) and the small blind pumps it up to 2,000. All call!

flop A-K-6. Sb leads for 4,000 with 6,000 back. Avi calls

turn 8 SB ships and Avi insta calls

sb flips 4-4 and says "good call"

Avi flips Q-J and says "If you have an Ace you have me. Oh, I thought I had a King"

river 10 to send another player home


Meanwhile I can't do a lot so sit out and cringe/gasp and chuckle for two hours

Eventually, once Claw has been and gone from the table, Avi doubles me up when I flop the lot with filth in the big blind. He then proceeds to double various others up and his 70,000 stack in level 3 falls to 20,000

Finally I find something with my 18,000 stack, raise AKs, Avi 3 bets, I shove for want of something better to do given he could have anything and Avi insta calls off with 7-7. As I depart (I'm never 50-50 against Avi) I get him clapping wildly to himself and jabbing animatedly at the dealer

"I know you my friend, you wear white shirt not maroon like all others"

Fantastically entertaining night really. Posters on this thread aside, who are most of the 30 or so regs with games we all rate/respect, there appears to me to have been a fantastic influx of value into the room since I last played regularly. Jaw droppingly eye openingly bad. These guys want to be in every pot, have to see a lot of flops and stack off very lightly.

Talking of which. Avi didn't cash, neither did WPIS. Well done to Gavin and lutonrover for TID MOF. Takes a special skill to avoid those land mines....

Another healthy field last night, with 64 scrapping it out and current leaguer Pizzled TIDMOF from future leaguer lutonrover.
18pts for the still-hungover stalwart see him ease to the top of the monthly standings and probably into a few more Fantasy League III lists.

[Dingdell]

Just my exit hand from DTD last night - short stacked - push with  - called by  and  - fair enough. Flop comes    happy days, followed by  giving a house to the victor. Live poker is rigged I tell you!

Probably back to Luton tonight then, I blame myself for leaving and trying to play somewhere else.... ;-)

Mad tourney last night , it was I begorrah!!! that sadly exited Avi ......, but would love to know how the following was allowed to happen

we are 3 handed, Gavin  has a mountain of chips , myself and  matey have similar , and I suggest we let Gavin win ,  split 2nd and 3rd , its getting so late the owls have gone to sleep ....but there's a guy sitting at the table connected to matey who shouts at me and him and is allowed to interfere , in any event I knocked him out and eventually Gavin and the writer chopped
 

Why was the guy allowed to sit with us ,  why was he allowed to interfere ? and shout everyone down , including Gavin who was trying to be helpful


just crazy !!!

did u mention it to the td ask why people someone was allowed to sit around the table? this usually isnt allowed but sometimes depends who you are

Popped into Luton on the way home from DTD and witnessed it      .....     it was like a Carry on film, pure com.

The other fellah - Tony Lissener - was quite up for the deal when his railbird sidekick interfered, screaming louder than a loud person, insisting that Tony played on for the (phuqqin highly unlikely) win as, "he had staked" Tone - so he (somehow) had some say in any deal.

As Mr Lissener exited shortly after taking his advice, I commented, "You better get yourself a new Business Manager, Tony - this one just cost you two hundred quid!"

However     .....       Sweet FA to do with the G staff - deals are for the players involved to sort out - they're there to put the cards on the felt, not act as arbiters between bickering bods!

[Dingdell]

The irony on this thread sometimes has me crying with laughter.

Yup.

Something about cardrooms and the 'Festive Season'       ......       they are a magnet for arseholes.

[GMan]

although one of the toughest comps to crack as play is piss poor, runners  for tonight and tomorrows comps should be excessive (source last years figures), i intend to turn up for five minutes loose three flips and depart swiftly.

[nirvana]

Graham, is it all dealer dealt ?
