wow
that hand would be tough to lose with the kings. i can understand losing a good chunk of change if an ace hit the board, but to lose to pocket twos when you flop the nut boat? that hurts. just curious, but how did you end up in the game. did any of the owners lost grand end up in your stack? |

Yes, I was beginning to wonder how you were going to handle the small fortune that you have promised to pay out to dedicated posters. But with games like this, I see that it's just chump change!

Don't mind me. Typo. I was indeed the BB, sitting in between those two guys. I've corrected the story above.

I finished down about $160 last night. $50 of that was due to an information call I made when the story just didn't add up and I was willing to pay to see what he had. Other than that, I felt like I played virtually mistake free.... had some back luck getting sucked out on a few of times and lost 2 or 3 race situations with short stacks. One hand, for example, I had TWO short stacks all in with my AK vs A6 and 66. The 6s held up. I realize I'm not a big favorite there or anything, but I played it right, given how the hand developed. That was a $300+ pot alone.... sure would have liked to have seen an A or a K on that board, but it was not to be. But overall, I can't complain.

I thought it was just me, but it seems like even in my little 1/2 2/4 3/6 and when I am actually playing live 5/10 game that one pot over a session makes me a winner or loser for the session, and that's what gather from your post here. Do you find that to be the case more often than not?

Quite honestly, yes, I do. Maybe not ONE pot, but I can usually narrow it down to 3 or 4. That's the nature of the game though... in NL anyway. In limit, it's much more mechanical - it's a matter of playing many, many hands and making less mistakes than your opponents.
