lessons learnt from this experience - dont try and take mr Styles off a pot lol & dont run two pair into big chipstack on table... took a big hit before the 2nd break and then out the door after 3rd hand into the 3rd hour.
thoroughly enjoyed it and will be back for more
Somehow clawed my way back to 7th.
I blame the beer
Not sure if i laid down 2 winning hands or not but doing so kept me in till 2nd break.
Finally crumbled out after 2 1/2 hours in 36th place and have to say it was played in great spirit
I'll be back for more
THANKS SKY suits for putting these on
It's tough to imagine better value poker fun than these.
See you later in the week I hope.
Keep plugging away, & you'll be rewarded for doing the right things over time.
AK for me...raise...call....flop 235 (i think) pot commited AK and gutshot...all in ...called by ...AA..out.
Ah well.
Had a ball.
Let's get these 10 Seater Deepies rocking & rolling.
i also posted the A 10 hand, just for a bit more feedback. they are both in the same thread.
I think the problem was pre-flop. Peeps call very wide here, so I think a bigger Pre-Flop Raise might get rid of the others, but they are both big dogs to you, so in a way, you want some action.
The specific problem here was three-fold.
1) barstools was Calling everyone, & very wide. He'd had AA v KK early, & a few other coups, so was calling any Raise almost Blind. So he had a mountain of chips, & was playing gung-ho poker. Hard to get these guys off hands.
2) Once HE smoothed, that gave Flash a fair price to Call. I don't know what his hand was, but he had a good price, & he's capable of being lairy.
3) That Flop. It's just a HORRIBLE Flop, as wet as wet could be. Any sort of Raising hand is likely to be "adjacent" to that, with lots of draws & two-pairy-type made hands. But you had a re-draw, too, top Pair & any A or 9 is likely to be good. Wish so much money in, it's hard to Pass that, especially against a loosey like barstools. It IS Passable - but I'm not sure many would, could, or should.
You were just cold-decked by that combo of specific circumstances.
I won't comment very much on the A-Ten hand, as I was involved in that, & that'd be unfair, & hard for me to be objective. Except to say, your play would possibly be deemed correct in a fasty-fasty 9pm Open - but not a slowy-slowy Deepie. You had Raised, & I had re-Raised. You just ask yourself what my Re-raising "range" is there. The answer can only be 4 hands - AA, KK, QQ, or AK.
All in my opinion, I hasten to add.
I beliewve that Tourney - the 7pm Monday 10 Seater Deepie - will be called the "McRatMan D/Stack" next week.
Well done you.
Fun fun fun...
I don't think you need advice from me!
I'm running as bad as a bad thing right now. Do the opposite to what I do!
Seriously, it does play different if there is a Bounty on you, it increases the equity in the hand, but I think you just play your own game. You'll get callled very wide, but if your hand holds up, you'll get handsomely paid.
Good Luck for the 2-timer mate.
