Hi pillowman. i have some friends coming round in about an hour so haven't got time to bore you all with my stories, you've probably heard them before, but I WILL bore you all later, if and when they go home. Will have to chuck 'em out by nine as I'm down for the open.
Come on you lot get posting!
MY WORST MOMENT WAS REALISING I WAS DREAMING...
ON A TRUE ONE I SUPPOSE WINNING THE OPEN AND GETTING 4TH IN PRIMO
WORST WAS LOSING TO 2/3 AT DTD WHEN I RE RAISED BIG WITH 9S GRRRRRRR
Best moment, going deep in five00, worst my downswing that has just finished after 5 days.
Quite a while ago I had qualified for a semi final in a live league game and decided to make it an all dayer. I was pretty wasted, I got up from my table to go to the bar, chatted to a couple of mates who were nearby, went to the bar, came back and sat down to see my chip stack was completely diminished and I had gone from a big stack to a real short stack. So of course I challenge the others at my table as to where my chips had gone and was getting nowhere, I was getting quite angry and telling ppl to stop taking the p**s. I then heard lots of laughter behind me and turned round to see some familiar faces, familiar being the other players at the table I was sitting at. I had come back and sat at the wrong table and not even noticed.
The table I shouldve been at and the mates I`d been chatting with had decided to let me embarrass myself and keep digging a hole.
That still gets brought up from time to time
Worst Moment : Probably sitting OK stacked at Birmingham SPUKT... 1st hand into the money i think ok 1 double up iv got a good shot at final table... 1st hand i look at is AA, Cut-Offs goes all in i snap call obviously, he says oops i was stealing.. shows Q4... he makes a straight?!?!? ha ha, was to the eventual winner, fair do's a nice guy but what could of been???
my best poker moment was when i was short stacked in the primo last year,i could not ladder any more with only 4 bb left and the bb on me in 2 hands time,i was looking 2 shove.....i got dealt 47 diamonds and it was folded 2 me with 3 players bhind,IN THEY GO ALLIN.......the button calls with JJ,and the bb re raises allin with AA, i coudnt blieve how unlucky i was 2 have walked into ,not 1 but 2 monster hands,,,,,at this point ive already scrolled the arrow up 2 the red x at the top of the screen ,waited for the flop ,356 rainbow, bingo floped the str8. having tripled up with my 47 dias ,i went on 2 win the primo ,its nice 2 have a little luck now and again............ my worst poker moment was on another site where i went 2 sit at a5 10 doller cash table, i took my entire bankroll on there with me, 890 dollers ,i had bn watching this table for about 30 mins and noticed a maniac on there,,,,,,,he was raising all the time ,stealing blinds ,shoving allin with draws etc...... total maniac,so i think 2 myself ,im gonna double up here,gonna wait for a big hand and take his cash....i folded for 2 orbits of the table ,and had my blind taken by the maniac raiser on both occasions ,on the bb for the 3rd time and ive got KK ,oh yes ,hes gonna have it now me thinks ,sure enough its folded 2 maniac and without fail in comes his raise $45,sb gets out the way ,i re raise $150 he dwells up for a bit and eventually makes the call ,,,, flop KJ4 rainbow ,,,,,im rubbin my hands at this point ,i bet $240 and he goes allin ,and i instantly call ,maniac turns over ten Q for an openended str8 draw ...........my heart is in my mouth at this point ,and he rivers the ace for his str8 ,i was in shock for days ,,,,,,,,, i will never ever do that again,there r lessons 2 b learned in good bankroll management''''''''''
Worst moment - turning up for a tournament, thinking Tikay would be there, and he wasn't. FML.
My worst moment was in the WCOOP $2million when after 9 hours and with 107 players left from a field of 3000+ my KK hole cards flopped KKx against the chip leader. He put me all-in post flop with pocket Aces then hit runner runner Aces. I lost my 63k stack and he went on to win the tournament. I picked up 2k and he picked up 400k. I felt devastated and didn't play for about 3 weeks after.
Ive had some great moments in poker, mainly playing in Europe, but it was there that I had my worst bad-beats !!
