Easy little quick quiz Hector is running on Tuesday night. Not a long drawn out affair like the rsq, just short and sweet and will be a laff. Needs some more entries though so gogogogo. Try and beat the defending champion if you can (doubt you'll have a shot, he's pretty awesome).

Have to give a special mention to Kurt in this post. Kurt has been a reg at DTD for as long as I can remember. Reputation for being very solid, plays strong hands, nothing fancy, always has it - you get the idea. This reputation has led to many a frustrated river fold or preflop laydown in the past from myself and the other regs. He's also a super nice guy and sometimes will even tell you what he has during a hand if you ask him and he likes you.

Tonight we play the following hand. Kurt raises he button on my straddle to £15, Mitch flats in the bb and I squeeze to £65 with  , both call.

  check check check

  check, I bet £85, Kurt calls, Mitch calls

Mitch leads for £225, I know what Mitch is doing here, I fairly happily call. As soon as I don't get a snap fold from Kurt I'm starting to hate life. He goes deep into the tank and counts out a raise. I don't remember how much it was, in the region of 500 i think. I'm hazy because as soon as it crosses the line, Mitch throws his cards in frustration into the muck, and I echo this frustration and do the same instantly.

"Would be sick to show the bluff here is it" Frankie says and sure enough, he reveals the Q9 offsuit!

Was stunned and amazed. Is this what 3 years of being a rock has built up to? Much respect to Kurt for this play, what a boss!

Was great having Frankie there to watch it [ ], he goes and tells the entire club how Kurt bluffed me and Mitch and we get ridiculed. I bowed my head in shame and stared down at my iPad which had become very interesting all of a sudden...

He does this more often than possibly you realise, recently more so.... definately not someone I enjoy being in pots with. Confirmed legend.

Looks like a mass serial killer but is just a really lovely bloke.

Agreed, he's done well to cultivate his image as it means he gets these plays through a lot of the time.

Yeh agreed, it's great.

Cos I sure as hell will be paying him off every river from now on!

[Mitch]
