Copied this from Stu's thread, think Rob posted on there by mistake.



Couple of hands played and couple of hands won
Nothing big though
Button steal 3456 plo8
And this one vs a guy defending light as hell in plo8 and limit O8

Limit o8
He raises from sb
I look down at A357 3 spades
Won control of the pot in position so I 3bet to 15k
Flop Q106 rainbow
He check folds to my 5k bet and says “this is so pretty”
I reply “mine too”  Smiley

89.5k
184 left
We may break table next , not 100% it’s confusing how it’s written
Average 115k

Then this hand vs same guy
He raises mid and I 3 bet AJ47 double suited
Flop A93 he calls my 5k
Turn 4 he check folds to my 10k

117.5k I think


lol
Thank god the coffee arrived haha .  Thanks mate

Slight confusion here
Think I typo yesterday it pays 119
Think it was 129
But today it’s 128
I heard someone behind me discussing with the floor and floor was going to ring main floor from yesterday
Possibly to do with that lady being removed Huh?

Defend bb 9863xxss limit vs sb big chip

Flop A410 rainbow
Call his bet
Turn beautiful two spades to give me flush draw 2nd low
He check folds

Coming back after break
141k

Confirmed 128 spots being paid because of the disqualification ( got her money back apparently ! )

2/4/4 plot limit
I guess
4/8 8/16 limit

152 left
Average 140k


Huge hand before break
Big O
Limp from Thai
I pot it to 13.5 with AA4710 1 nut suit and one non
Heads up flop with 34.5k in there
A85xcc not my suit and not my blocker ace clubs
Hate it but when he checks I’m not leaving that 34.5k in there
30k is my bet and he moves in for another 30k ish
And shows 22345 .   Arrrgh but don’t forget he is blocking himself and doesn’t have the flush draw
Gotta fade 8 outs twice unless I fill up
Turn K river Q , I’ll take it , phew Smiley

It’s interesting he was after the full double
If he leads pot I may well fold , would have been a tough spot given the clubs on board too.

Update… after writing that 140 left .

Ok finally some proper poker
Big O
AhJ248xddd in bb
Thai button makes it 12k ( playing 80 ish )
I could fold , re raise , or flat here .
All valid options I feel
I flat and flop is 9h3d3h
I check and he bets 10k
I debate making it 30 but go for 25k
He tank folds

Up to 162k peak

Then as writing this I just re raise with Aa28 double suited in plo8 over the only guy that covered me at the table , he folded pre flop.

183k
136 players left
Average 156k
$3,021 is a min cash


Stacks are a little deeper now after some busts but still 2 critical low stacks at the table .

Massive hand in limit
4/8 8/16

2 off bubble
Both stacked

Raise mid
I’m next in position with AA36 just baby clubs but red aces
3 bet . Small blind calls too so 3 way .
Flop 997 2 hearts
Matey leads I flat and button folds
Turn is 2 hearts
He gets the 16k
I make it 32k on the off chance of a fold , it’s unlikely he has a boat
He tanks for an eternity then announces “great bluff if it was one”
Must have folded a ? Small flush no redraw to low or bad low ?
I didn’t show

Over 250k

Got the guy that flatted the 3 bet earlier on the hook since then but he escaped ( new player ) , seems really bad but here to play loads of hands .

Raise mid with AaK2 1 suit ( still limit ) and he flats the button
He calls me down on a board of
Q83A4
With the mighty
K356 , 1 suit 56cc    .  Bad turn for me arrgh .

Right on the bubble we chip up in limit again
Limp utg 10k ( any 4 mad chap )
I top up sb with 10,9,3,4 rainbow
Bb only has 12k total - so 2k behind
Flop 10,8,6
Utg bets I flat and bb all in 2k
Turn is a lovely 10
I lead 20k into the 16k side and he flats
River is a lovely ace giving me a decent low
Bet and he calls - scoop side - dunno what utg had
Bb scoops half but that’s only 18k so decent pot for me with trash even I don’t like to play Smiley

Bubble goes before next hand

Back to 285k after a couple of tricky limit hands
I did chop one but other lost the minimum I think by taking free card on turn that could have hit my flush , gut shot , or ace on river but didn’t come .

204k after this nasty one against the any 4/5 guy
Big O
A236Q 2 suits I raise and just sb calls
Pot is 40k
Flop AJ7
Just when I trying to think whether I’m checking back or not he pots it
I think about folding but it’s too strong I think vs this guy - thinking he has AJ I decide to flat with back door flush and straight opportunities
Turn is a 7
Honestly don’t think he likes it
But he still moves in for 90 into 120k
I tank fold
We talk after and he wasn’t lying
He had AKQJJ , maybe should have folded flop , I dunno
Was a 3min plus tank for me on turn

We have a huge stack at table now but has hardly played a hand .

82 left
Pay jumps minimal
Average 260k

Beginning to desire something stronger than caffeine

Weird lay down in big O pre with nothing invested
Raise and reraise in front of me
AK2910 2 non nut suits
Turned out raiser had exact same hand
Thai had A25Q10
Would have chopped the main and won a small side

Was marginal fold.  Tanked a minute pre !

Since that gambled AQ105 double suits vs a shorter guy and chopped

Then took down a decent chunk after re raising almost half my stack in pre with AA103
Matey folded the 2,9,10 flop

258k after that

New table
5 mins until dinner
62 left
344k average

222k at dinner - return in an hour
New table looks ok actually
