The Fossil does Vegas
Erimus:
Going into last level 16k, moved to a very passive table got a few light shoves through over limpers, need at least 1 or 2 doubles though.
Lowlights, turning 2cnd nut flush, paid him off.
AJ v j9, he flops straight, I have 2 pair on the river.
Card rush please or 2 cards which give me a couple of doubles, been fun though, could be my most expensive fish and chip meal, which was vey pleasant.
Erimus:
just back from Bolton, head buzzing so a quick report on the last level.
blinds are 800/400/100 I have 16 bigs 23 players left, playing to 18 or the end of this level, no spots for a bit, sb limps into my bb, I have already shoved twice in the last level so I give it a minutes thought, I look down at 72 off, i check, flopQKK, could rep here she has checked decide not too, turn A, she min bets, weakness I think but I let it go, she shows KK for quad kings, glad I had nothing there then.
Utg I look down at A 10, good enough, ship it,14k, get flatted from a 30k stack with 44, next guy tanks for ages eventually folds (says 10 10) , he thinks the guy with 44 is very strong because he has left only 14k behind, fair enough, gets to big blind who is now worried about the flatter and the guy who has tanked for ages, he open folds AJ, glad he folds but obviously one of my outs has gone, flop no help, turn the ace from space, (apparently the case ace, old guy had folded the other ace), being results orientated disappointed that the tens folded there as it would of been a full treble up but happy to get to 30k.
I am still looking to increase stack when I look down at 10 10, utg has limped, I 3 bet with a view to getting it in, I bet a bit bigger than normal and made a point of moving the rest of my chips closer to the line as the others were folding, utg tanks for a while and eventually folds.
This table was like the G on a Sunday very surprising in a £500 comp.
I will be returning on Saturday with 28k2, below average but with a stack which can cause a bit of damage and who knows win a couple of hands be back in the mix.
There was only 1 hand which I wasn"t sure on and maybe should of folded I had raised mid position 22, at 300/600 and got jammed on by an 8 bb stack, obviously flipping at best I did call, he had 77 and it held.
I asked John Eames what he would of done in the same spot and he said it depends how he felt at the time, either or, I still had a decent stack after the call but was a bit marginal.
Overall I had some my fair share of decent cards so can"t complain about being totally card dead, what I can have a small moan about is a few outdraws when I was 70/30 favourite, frustrating but we have to accept it as part of the game and not let it affect our play.
Rambled on enough now, will continue this on Saturday and hopefully Sunday. thanks for reading.
