Keep these Posts coming please Tracey. We can almost smell the sun-tan lotion, hear the cards being shuffled.
I Knowe It - what happened at Walsall today - never saw the going of you?
I went out about 10 mins before the end of play on Saturday. I lost 2 key pots. 1st with KK , then I lost with a set against Ali Malu.
He raises for umpteenth time and I have 44 in SB , so I flat call.
Flop J , 10 ,2. check, check
Turn the magical " 4 " . check , Ali bets 2500 so I flat call.
River Ace. I check , Ali bets 3000, I just flat call.
I turn over set of 4,s, Ali turns over set of J's. He asks how could I not raise him when I caught a set.
I told him I know of his crafty tricks and it might not be good.
He said he still dont know how I couldnt raise him.
It was an uphill struggle after that, and the way Ali was catching cards combined with him being a good player, made it a lethal combination.
Congrats on your placing by the way.
