Went to the G in Salford for their £30 f/out, with £10 being for bounties. 7k stack and 1/2 hour blinds till the 1st break, where it shifts to 20 mins. And had a bloody good laugh. Every minute, my table was having a laugh and a joke, and not getting disheartened etc.
Played ABC poker till the break where I'm on 8k. 1st hand after the break, 100/200 blinds, 5 limpers on my BB, and I have JJ. To make a point, with the pot approx 1.5k, I reraise to 3k with the sole intention of getting rid of the lot. One bloke goes all in, I'm priced in to call ( leaves me with 2k back) he flip AK and I hold. Nothing really of note happens until 400/800, where with 66 on the button, I raise to 3k. The BB is a total nit, only plays premium hands, he tanks then calls. The tank says to me he hasn't got a pair.. so something like AK/AQ is most likely.
Flop was Q 10 x and I continuation raise 4k. Again he absolutely tanks... he's obviously missed..so AK/AJ but eventually calls.. I have 7k back.. turn is another low card... fire 5k this time, as I kinda want him to call for value, but also want him to fold... eventually he calls... the river is an A... sigh.. I know, KNOW he's hit at last... I have 2.3k back.. he'll insta call... so decide to check in hope he thinks I have KJ.. he goes all in... I fold... sucked...
Next hand I have K5s go all in, have 3 callers inc an even shorter stack, the K hits and I win and get another bounty. I'm raising any 2 and do so 3 times in a row, none of which are called...
Right before the break, 800/1600 blinds.. I have ~13k.. on BB with J7 off.. button pushes all in... announce.. this is my fav hand online.. think its 1k/2k blinds and with 11k I won't last long.. call.. he flips 65os and I knock him out for my 3rd bounty :)
After the break 1k/2k I become aggressive, 1st orbit I raised 4 times all getting through. UTG I get A10s.. push for 8k... BB hasn't played much and raises all in... its an easy call imo and I do.. he flips 88 and I'm fairly happy...
esp with the 10 3 10 flop...
and the 2 turn...
but the fucking 8 on the river... FML!!!!!!!!
I still laugh tho, wish the players all the best and off I pop.. just pausing in time to see the 100yd interception touchdown in the Superbowl.
