Anyone got any news on this?
MintTrav:
Second break. The news is not good.
Started with 30k and I had 39k at the first break.
Since then, this happened. I had 89. Flop JTx. Some small betting on the flop - 4 way to the Turn.
Turn 7, I have the nuts, but there is a flush draw.
I lead for 1400, one player reraises to 4000, others fold. I reraise another 6400 on top. He thinks for a long time and then calls. Two pair surely?
River 9. I can still get some more value from this if I make a reasonable bet. I bet 6000. He shoved for another 10k. Call. He had KQ. Surely not - how? There"s a very good chance that I had a 9 and he only has seven outs on the Turn - which was the case. Of course, if he had just called my bet on the Turn, he would have won, but it wouldn"t have become a critical hand for us both. I lost 27k on that hand, cos someone doesn"t know what he"s doing.
12k left, went down to 10k, but finished the session on 23k, so back in it now.
MintTrav:
There were two Day 1s, joining together at 9pm tonight for Day 2.
I was card-dead for a long time in the last session and blinded down to 19k. Then got a few cards, took a few blinds, lost a few and still had roughly that much just before the end of the session.
Then:
Blinds 1200/600/100. Raise to 2700 from UTG (7-handed - WTF?). I"m OTB with Qc 9c and make a loose call. BB comes in.
Flop Qs 9h 4d. That"s what I need (I hope he"s got AQ). BB checks, UTG 3500. Should I raise? That is the safest option, but I decide to take a chance on the higher risk / higher reward option and just call. BB calls too.
Turn 2s. Check, check. Okay, the time for fecking around is over. I shove for 10k. BB thinks for a while and eventually calls. UTG folds.
BB has 10s 8s - flush draw and gutshot. 11 outs. I could be out here and I"m almost expecting a spade. It doesn"t come and suddenly I"m on 40k.

Did I say no professionals? The first thing I see is the Baltic Blonde on my table

I spend quite a while sitting between her and Hos Parhizkar http://pokerdb.thehendonmob.com/player.php?a=r&n=2347.
Nice.
They"re both out now anyway (not my doing, I might add).
I have Lee Mulligan, of APAT fame, beside me now.
