The Joker in Vegas
Joker161:
We now play Level 15 and half of Level 16 because that"s what they did for the other two Day 1s. I drop about 20k in the first ten minutes, but then really get motoring for the last half hour. I get three or four steals through then get AK and three callers. Ace high flop, I bet and they all fold. Handy! Then there"s a massive hand where the loose bloke raise, the slightly tighter one calls (but I"ve seen him fold to raises) and I decide to get fancy and squeeze with my 75s. Blinds are 500/2k/4k, the initial raise is 9k and I make it 22k. The loose player folds but the tighter one calls. Trouble! The flop is AT7 and he checks. I bet another 22k. He thinks for ages and I"m SURE he"s going to call, but he folds. He says he has JJ and the loose player says he had TT and would have had a set! Then I win a nice pot at the end raising with KJ with one caller (the other loose player). Flop is king high, check/check, I bet the turn and he calls, I bet the river and he folds. So I end the day on 237k with an average of about 140k. I think about 120 survived today, and there will be maybe 80 from the other two days. Not sure how many they will pay; perhaps about 140? All very exciting!

Nice going Joe.
I was wondering what your plan was here. Aren"t you going to end up losing this hand in the end more often than not?

With about 20 minutes to go I get 88 on the SB. There"s a raise and a call so I re-raise and the initial raiser calls.

True, but the re-raise is about image too. I hope they fold. If they don"t, I hold to hit. If I dont, next case.
