I managed to cash in the Sleepstack though, but I had to get lucky in that, too.
Holding Kd-9d, the Flop came Q-9-9, 1 diamond.
The chips all went flying in on that flop, & my Opponent had me totally locked up, with A-9, oops. So I needed to hit a K, to house up, basically. No miracle King was to fall, but running diamonds got me there.......
What can I say? These things happen, but that was really ugly stuff. Sorry Mr Opponent!
It's been something of a train-wreck but I'm pleased to say that in the last few days I've had a run of results which, whilst not exactly making me any profit, have steadied the ship.
In other words, I'm not losing left, right and centre anymore. And right now, let me tell you, that feels like winning!
So watch out this evening- I'm on form...kind of.
I'll be On the Site tonight, so I'll come & Rail you for a bit.
PS - You sure you got the date right this time?
Yes, I've definitely got the right date thanks. A date which will live in infamy. The date that Orford took down the Open!
Tell you what. Fancy a Last-Longer in Tonight's Open?
If anyone else wants to join in, you are welcome. But I'm the likeliest last-longerist. As we shall see, later this evening.
OK, you're on!
Let me know in the chatbox for how much.
I'm guessing since your MO is to log on, have a 'senior' nap, then wake up when you're down to 2 big blinds, that you comfortably win the majority of your last longer bets...?
Good luck to all playing tonight
Had a disaster on Friday, when my Broadband collapsed in a heap, and I Blinded out. I was well-placed at the time to Cash in both the £15k Bounty Hunter, & the 8.15 Deepstack. Sigh. That is all.
And so, tonight, Tuesday June 2nd, I am on a recovery mission.
I've entered the £4,000 Open at 9pm, & the usual 8.15pm Sleepstack.
See you there.
There sems to be a spanner in the Smiley Department.
A bloke with a big hammer will come along & fix it tomorrow.
Went deep in both, but not deep enough. Played OK though, & had some good banter in the Chat-Box.
£4k Open, 60th of 458.
£400 Deepstack, 16th of 85.
Ho-Hum.
Never mind that Mr wooooosh, poker is for enjoying, just play in your comfort zone, whatever that may be. The winners in poker are those that enjoy it most.
For me, tonight's selection from the Poker Menu will be the 8.15 Deepstack, & the 9pm Five-00, & I've registered for both.
It's my Play The Presenter Shift tonight, too, so if anyone fancies some fun poker on my Table, or just wants to chat from the Rail, that'll be cool. To find me (or whatever Presenter is on each night), just go to "Find a Player" & type the Alias (mine tonight will be "TIKAY10") into the box thingie. I'll be on a selection of Cash Tables from 7pm onwards, & throughout the evening, depending how long I last in the Tourneys.
I will report back upon my inevitable demise later. Expect excuses.
I got mullered last night, I was like Mr Softee, & everyone owned me.
In the Deepstack, I held A-K (with the Ace of hearts), I played it trappy & ended up trspping myself. Flop was Q-J-2, all hearts. Count the outs there....My oppo, "Joyce", great guy who I met recrently in Newcastle, held 8-2, & two-paired on the turn, & I missed all my 7,639 outs, sigh.
Ran well in the 5-00, but close to the money ran K-Q into A-A, & Mr A-A refused to pass his one pair.....
Eventually, I played Heads-Up v the Studio Guest, Steve Sedgley, (ex- Spurs footballer bloke), & managed to win that.
Earlier, in thge 0.10.20 Cash, I was Lord Card-Rack, hit EVERYTHING, & trebled my £20 pull up, so a small profit on the night ensued. Happy Days.
£400 deep stack at 8.15pm
£1000 velocity at 10pm
£300 gtd at 10.20pm
£100 gtd speed at 10.35pm
Lets hope i can get a few cashes!!!!!!!!!
