Did you buy back in? I thought you lost your nut flush to the straight flush?

 

[Beakertwang]

Did you buy back in? I thought you lost your nut flush to the straight flush?

That hand involved two other players at his table.

 

[Anthony Martino]

Did you buy back in? I thought you lost your nut flush to the straight flush?

That was the guys on my immediate right and left

Sitting on 76k with blinds at 400/400/800

Play is mostly straight-forward at my table, no maniacs

 

[Anthony Martino]

I'm in BB with

Folded to SB who raises to 2400. We call. He says "you don't HAVE to call you know" and I reply "I could hit a duece!"

Flop

He checks, we downbet 1200, he calls. We start calling for a duece

Turn

He checks, we bet 2400, he folds pocket 2's face-up lol

Flop

We bet 4500, original raiser calls with about 12k behind

Turn

Looking good, river lol

Guy on my left says "I folded a 7, that was the case 7!"

 

[Anthony Martino]

A few moments later

UTG limps 1k, we limp MP with

Guy on my left limps, shorty in blinds shoves 6k

We all call, so about 25k in the pot, we have 63k behind

Flop

Checked to us, we shove. Guy on my left who covers starts agonizing, eventually finding a fold

I reveal my hand and the shorty has Aces!

Guy on my left once again says that was the case Ace and claims he folded AQ and thought I had pocket Queens

Down to 62k as break hits, entry period about to be over

 

[Anthony Martino]

Break is over, no more rebuys. We should have 150k but we have 62k. Let's spin it up!

 

[Anthony Martino]

26 make the $$$, 152 remain, avg 67k we have 62k

 

[Anthony Martino]

Up to 78k

Next hand folded to button who raises to 1200

We are in SB with

Fuck this guy, we make it 3600. He calls

Flop

We lead for 4500, he folds

 

[Anthony Martino]

127 players left, 101 need to bust for us to make day 2

 

[Anthony Martino]

Somehow with my crazy hat I still haven't made the SHRT blog

Gonna need to chip up I guess

 

[Anthony Martino]

Blinds 1/2/2k we raise to 5k in the HJ with

Button calls. I mention him just calling gives me the range advantage, let's see who the flop hits

Flop

I state that is his range and check, he bets 6k, we call

Turn

We both check.

River

We both check. He states he was afraid of the spades but I was correct on ranges as he flips over for the wheel lol

Our table is broken, moved to a new one

 

[Anthony Martino]

Blinds now 1200/2400 with 2400 bb ante. Avg is 98k with 104 left. We have 60k, so 25 bigs and an M of 10

I've been dealt 72 off three times in the past five hands. I do not like this table lol

 

[Anthony Martino]

We raise to 6k UTG+1 with and they all fold.

We have enough chips to shove over a raise and have fold equity, but would prefer a double soon

 

[Anthony Martino]

69k with 3 minutes left until break. Avg 106k with 96 players left

 

[Anthony Martino]

80 players remain, avg stack 128k

We have 70k with blinds at 1500/3k/3k

 

[Anthony Martino]

MP raises to 10k, we rip in 62k with

He folds. Up to 79.5k

Why the hell do they never seem to use the better chips?

 

[Anthony Martino]

Dealt in the CO and planning to raise, when the HJ makes it 8k, we call

BB rips in 56.5k

HJ agonizes but folds. We figure we have to call 48k to win a pot of 72k or so, but best case we are flipping, we fold

 

[Anthony Martino]

Why the hell do they never seem to use the better chips?

They do for smaller field or one-day events

But don't have enough for the multiday ones

We raise to 7.5k with , BB defends, we win at showdown

 

[Anthony Martino]

74.5k blinds just hit 2/4/4k so we'll be open shoving any hand we play now

72 left, avg stack 142k

 

[Anthony Martino]

We shove 99 in HJ and win the 10k

 

[Anthony Martino]

UTG raises to 12k, we let KQ off go

 

[Anthony Martino]

Up to 90.5k

 

[Poker Zombie]

UTG raises to 12k, we let KQ off go

This is the first hand that I may disagree with, but I'm not sure what the blinds currently are.
