Tales of the Honeybadger
Honeybadg:
... Saturday night poker -$116 ...
... Saturday night roulette +£300 ...
Hard to remember when I last played Roulette before the last few weeks - three sessions - +£900, +£300, +£300 - clearly I should never play it again.
Long strings of random numbers - choose your slice of them "carefully".
The more I play poker - the more I see "just" a long string of random numbers bobbling around - true you can bad up bad players - but once you have a table of competent players - the variance engulfs the game,
Not just the variance of results once the cards are on their backs - but the match up of hands - at the Betfair Live Event the other day - I was having a happy battle vs two Scandis for the highest VPIP - but the guy with the chips was "just" sitting there waiting for AA and getting paid everytime ... AA vs AK into Kxx and so on ... it"s brutal ... passive is the new agressive and all that ...
Meanwhile with all my bluff and shows ... still no action with AA, AK, AK, AK ... and out AQ vs A7 on the last levle of the night ... spew spew ... Barny McGrew ...
Honeybadg:
Making a weekend of AQ losses ... out of the Warm Up called by JTs ... weird call for 15BB ... I had been playing badly ... too active in its Turbo format (today) ... in the Big $109 ... a simple AQ vs JJ race ... albeit the J was required on the river ...
Back to the Roulette ...

Honeybadg:
... Roulette went up and down in two mini sessions but I cashed out +£5 in each ...
Just ousted 238th of 5050 in the TCOOP 49 main event - for $1883.34 - last hand QQ into KK - was timing things well before that ... it was nearly $528k up top ... so pretty spewed off ... that the chips went to the card rack who has just miss-clicked a min raise and had to fold to the all in.
Crapshoot really ... but i delivered no beats to get were I was ... (LOL - I did kill a very short stack AJs vs JJ - pot committed)
Let"s see how much of night owl action I can muster whilst I clear my desk.

Honeybadg:
... my hilarious conqueror ... finally out in 26th ... for $8,378.60 ... when "he" had left himself with less than 1BB and called two call ins with A6o ... he was versus AA ...
Some savage blows going in at the moment ... A3 > AJ to stay alive ... $15k could be turning into a lot more ...
Honeybadg:
... 7 way chop ... crazy stuff ...
GadMO - rivers the 3 to win with A3 v AJ to stay alive 15 out - turning a $15k exit into $252k
Kekim1 - Wins KQ vs AJ to stay alive - turning a $42k exit into $289k
Hand before the deal a crazy AA vs JJ after the initial raiser stepped aside ...
Playing for $40k now - but I am off to bed ...
