Couldn’t quite climb back against the chip leader. Got some monsters that he folded to preflop and then got aggressive with less quality hands and got caught. Still a blast and appreciate
@longflop hosting such a great game with a very friendly group.
Most interesting hand of the night was an odd sequence where I faced KKs twice in row, out flopped them twice, still lost both pots (technically), but managed to end up with a higher stack than I started with.
Blinds at 800/1600
9 handed
Mostly short stacked, I have about 20,000
I am dealt
on the button.
Three player limo call to me, and I jam it all in to steal the pot.
Small blind calls for less with roughly 4,000.
Big blind folds and limped players fold

River is a blank and SB doubles+
Very next hand I am dealt
Middle position and big stack makes it 4,000
Next player goes all in for same 4,000
When action gets to me I shove for about 16,000
Player to my left goes all in on top of me for about 20,000
Original raiser and big stack folds.
All in caller shows

So the all in guy quadruples up, and I manage to also win a decent pot over the KKs with the side pot of about 24,000 bringing me to higher stack than what I started with 2 hands earlier. Guy with KKs was crippled and busted next hand. Poker is weird.
