Tonight my staring opponents are, from my left, Bobfish, Linziwan1,SundanceJon,Warbwastard and yet-a-flipping-gain, Dr Marbles. The latter knocked me out twice at The Vic, I knocked him out of the 6 max on monday so this is beginning to look personal. >:(

I really should spellcheck before posting. Of course, I meant "starting" not "staring", thats just a little strange.

I am staring as well.

Maybe that"s another addition to the season 3 schedule, staring contests.

season two is over for me. I played one hand against Linda Iwaniak really badly, but other than that, Doyle Brunson wouldn"t have won with my cards tonight. :"(

And now Linda has just gone out too. GG.

I can"t remember the precise details, but you raised me on either fourth or fifth street, I neglected to take the hint and kept chasing whatever weak draw I was after. You had three of a kind when you raised.
Apart from that, I think I had aces in the hole on three occasions, failed to improve and lost decent pots.

Well played mate, congratulations..that was a bit of a pasting heads-up. I may have fared better had I stayed in the lavatory after the break.

Fame. You won"t be able to go shopping now without people pointing at you.

Well played all. Makes the end of the season exciting. Provisionally for the last rankings event I think The Auck needs to finish at least three places in front of BigParka to equal his points at the top of the rankings and I think I need to finish 1st and BigParka not to get any points and I must finish about three places above TheAuck to finish with equal points for first place.
Ohhh the excitement
Think the rankings winner is going to be BigParka or the TheAuck.
On to the main event :)
-
Well done y"all, esp to bigalhx3 (the newbie to Stud).
See y"all on the tables on Saturday.
-
I really enjoyed my first 7card stud tournament. Simon (TheAuck) and I were hanging on by our fingernails as we got nearer and nearer to the points. Fortunately for me his luck ran out before mine did, and I managed to pick up some more points, and very nearly got my eigth medal.
Congratulations to BigAlh -we were at the same table all the way through, and he came back from being a very short stack and played really well.
All to play for on Saturday.

Congrats to all on the final table was another good tourney last night played in a great spirit despite the cruelties of stud.
Having gone into the final table as chip leader it all went wrong very quickly 5 handed as I represented the made flush with 4 spades showing Mair had 2 pair (1 showing) and took it all the way to 7th Street.
Now here was the big dilemma and where a lack of stud knowledge left me with a problem.
Having bet every street I was left with 8k chips (blinds 4k/8k) and first to act. I hummed and harred over sticking in my last 8k to a 55k (ish) pot as this was my only chance to win the pot having missed the flush but reasoned mair could not fold even 2 pair for the price she was getting so checked to stay in the game instead and find a better spot.
Any opinions? Would you have folded Mair?
-
that"s a tough spot, and I don"t know the "right" answer.
From my own perspective, having bet it all the way and put so much of my stack in the pot already, there"s no way I would check it down on 7th knowing I couldn"t win the pot, and only leaving myself with one Big Bet. You are right that Mair shouldn"t fold if you bet 7th as she would be getting nearly 8:1 for her two pair...... BUT there is a chance she might fold having missed her full house believing you to have the flush. I would prefer to go for that small chance of her folding rather than giving it up and being impossibly short stacked afterward.
Better to go out fighting in 5th place, than limp out in 5th place two hands later...... and you never know, she might fold and suddenly you have a decent stack of 8 Big Bets.
Gotta follow through and the stick it in on 7th.
-
I wouldnt have folded on the river with 55k ish in pot. Although you were showing the spades, I had been fighting so long to stay in the game and with so much of my chips in the middle it was a case of me going all the way in the hope of either making my boat as I had 99 hidden with my JJ and 2 cards to go or you not having hit flush.
Was ul hun.

What about changing all of season 3 and all future nationals to stud contests? Please? Pretty Please ???

I had people calling me all night all the way to the river with only one pair of any size when I had four flush cards, four to a straight and even a bigger pair showing...!!! Sometimes it paid off big but oh the times they got runner runner on 6th & 7th streets.... !!
