Okay, I"ve just calmed down.
I"m dealt ad td. Raise to 4x BB. One caller.
Flop comes th 8s :2d:
I bet half pot. He calls.
Turn brings 8c.
I check, He pushes all in for around 4k and has me covered.
I decide to call (feel free to analyse that if you like, about 2k left)
He shows ac qh.
Rivers brings qs.
Absolutely sickening. Do I run bad at the moment.
Mobily24, anyone know them ?
Good luck to everyone left in.

Eesh, killer Leigh. UL Fish!

Neil, if it wasn"t for the fact I am round a friends house for a BBQ, I think the laptop would have gone out of the window. What was he thinking ?
Not sure if he"s and APATer or not, don"t recognise the name.
-
I think I can beat that. Just went out 20 mins ago. Blinds 50/100 and its raised mid position to 400, I have :as: ah and re-raise to 1300 and he calls. We see a flop 6c kd jh, he bets 1200 I push the rest of my chips in, approx 3000 in total. Cards are turned, he has 5h 6h (bottom pair and no draw, turn card is ah and of course the river is 7h. :(

Brutal, what did he think he was beating when he called ?

No idea. You would need to ask poveyjeff but he is out now suprisingly! :D

QQ v KK v AA
Queens won it

:(
Crippled
no complaints top pair versus a flush draw - flush hit.
Might be a bit tricky to get back from less than one big blind
EDIT: didn"t take long - still no online final table for me this year :(
-
Out in first hand after break, allin with KK called by AK, as per usual when I"m in this position flop brings an A.
-
jeez this game can stink. all in preflop with 10 10 v A4.......... A on river to cripple me.
All in next hand with AQ v A 10......... 10 on river and all over.

Hello,
Unfortunately I am mobily24 :o I don"t feel I played that hand particularly well but would like to try and explain why I played it that way so I don"t come accross as a complete beginner! ;D
I think the pre-flop play was pretty standard..... I called the bet on the flop because I didn"t think you"d hit the board. I had seen you play strong starting hands and put you on high cards. I called to see how you"d play the turn. I saw the check as weakness and pushed in thinking you had fold equity.
It was a great call on your part and were extremely unlucky when the Q hit. Unfortunately straight after the hand the table was broken meaning I couldn"t apologise.
I"ve been on the end of some major suckouts before so knew what a bad beat that was and genuinely felt bad.
I hope you suck out on me in the future and get your own back!! :)

What were the blind levels then?

I"m starting to think I should not post straight after getting knocked out, I do myself no justice.
Thanks for the explanation, it"s much appreciated. At the end of the day, it"s just poker and it happens to everyone.
Just a bit more to me at the moment than I would like.
See you again at the tables soon.

Mobily24 exits in 4th place when his JJ runs into GiMac"s AA and no help on the board.
Well Played.

A pot of 340k sees Gimac1 run his KK into aitch48"s AA. Carnage at the tables.
GiMac1 is out in 3rd after becoming short stakced and pushing with AT against aitch48 with A5 with a 5 already on the flop.
Well Played Gordon, bronze medal for you.

Thanks Jack, I"m on a bit of roll at the moment. Made two final tables in Dublin (unfortunately not the one that really counted) and now these two this week.
Hopefully I will emulate you and take one down soon.
