$10000 no limit deuce

An eventful start. Up to 65k but then a massive deuce cooler.

Good player raises UTG to 1200, I have the massive 86542 and 3bet to 4,200. He calls, I pat and he actually pats. I value bet 9k into 9,600 (standard).

He raises to 27,800. Hmmm. Its a call. I should beat enough of his value range to make it right to call given these odds, even if he can never bluff.

I call and he had the over whelmingly massive 76542. I think it will make the updates.

(The numbers.I have number 8. I am beaten by 75432, 76432, 76532, 76542, 85432, 86432,86532. He probably value raises 86543,87432 and 87542 at least, which makes it already enough to call)

$10000 no limit deuce

Hmm a more realistic tournament. 26k. Miss two 1vs1, and then make 96432 and it's a standard call vs Benyamines 5500 bet after drawing one, as I beat a good chunk of his value hands.

27k second break

$10000 no limit deuce

Sadly, a quick level five exit.

I don't think there was anything I can do. There is one possible spot, which I'll write out below. But apart from that, seemed to miss every 1vs1 (it was due, I guess) and then this was the exit hand:

Monnette raises CO to 2000 at 400-800(200). Galen Hall calls small blind. I have 18,300 and 94322. It's call or ship. The extra deuce helps. I think it's a ship, its so hard for them to call off of they are a one card draw. If either (by far most likely Monette) calls and is pat, I will have 16 for 33%0outs  most of the time. And it gets through tons.

Monette reships and does have a pat T7532. 16 outs. Sadly a queen. Still gutting to bust, even though obviously I can't complain today!

Bruh, the dealer from New York

Poor Bruh the dealer. He's a good dealer. You can tell. It was Bruh who yesterday managed to make three mistakes in the same Badugi pot, which the Russian won against me. Whilst I am completely ambivalent to the fact that moments like that change the deck because its all part of the randomness, there was some irony in the fact that in a pot that Makarov won, the latter errors were almost definitively caused by his massive over reaction to the first. I think Bruh knew that his mistakes had changed it, and I wanted him to know that it really didn't matter; a butterfly flapping it's wings somewhere had changed everything too.

Bruh was back today, and you could tell had even more determination in his professional attitude. But, poor Bruh maybe was too determined, he fumbled my last card in 2-7 no limit. If you're a dealer, you always want a card that you fumble to be bad. Poor Bruh fumbled the deuce of spades. That should have been bad for me, but actually was the best news. I already had a deuce in my T632. My replacement card was a 7, to make a big hand. We got all in, and I doubled through Makarov. He deserves no anti-karma, he was alot of fun and did apologise yesterday. But I hope Bruh saw what had happened, and that it had all evened out in the end.




Pure class sir, many poker players would still be ranting and raving over social media if it had happened to them, some may even have tried to lose the guy his job. I have very little knowledge of the mixed games however your updates had me on the edge of my seat at times, superb effort and thank you.

Questions

1. You touched on it briefly, however:

When it is your pick, what are your thoughts when deep but short, I assume it wouldn't be as simple as picking your favourite game. Would you be picking games where it would be more likely you would have to commit most/all your chips or games where you could potentially have some betting freedom and be able to get away if needs be (hope that make sense.)

Same question if you were big stack.

Marathon $2,620 no limit

Right, instead of the marathon no limit holdem, I had the marathon of all sleeps. Given that that left an option between a late entry, or a on-time entry t the stud hi-lo. it feels right to play stud.

Bookkeeping

Cashes: $181,258 $4,311 $14,912. Total $200,481

Missed events: $1,500 dealer's choice (plus one re-entry), $1,500 HORSE, $1,500 Big Blind Ante, $1,500 8-game mix, $1,500 2-7 NL re-entry, $565 PLO (plus one re-entry), $2,620 Maraton no limit holdem. Total $12,750

Extra event

I am going to add the $1,500 PLO on Thursday. I will send a message to all stakers, asking whether they would like to add it.

Right, stud hi-lo is what I was picking a fair bit in the DC. And now there is no choice. Let's go.

Thanks so much Pads and Dave

Pads-didn't manage to reply to deal suggestion yesterday. To be honest, I've actually never done a deal in my life, partly on slightly bizarre stubborn principle. I feel that Adam may well have refused heads up, but to be honest, it wasn't even a consideration at any point.

Geo

Cheers Geo. I'll try not to give the answer that could fit any poker question, of 'it depends,' as there really are ao many factors. I would say in general

If fairly short I would veer towards no limit holdem. Easy to gain nice equity with standard shoves.

If very short - you want a split pot game (less chance to bust), a limit game, and you want antes (more likely to get yours chips in, and so more likely to benefit from the extra dead money. So what you want is specifically stud hilo. If you were very short, there could even be circumstances where splitting the pot would be enough to triple up.

If the big stack This will depend more on how you perceive the table, but clearly you want whatever game you can push your weight and ICM pressure around in. That very probably is No Limit holdem

The other factors are:

How you perceive your opponent's weaknesses (I didn't find many!)

Where is the button? If you are really short, you want games that have a button if you are out of the blinds, and games without if you are in the blinds!
