Fun night (lc)

Posted this on a msg board a friend runs on a thread discussing poker, thought I'd post it here as a way of saying hi to old friends .

Hadnt played for months due to being busy as heck at work for a while there, started playing a little and gradually lost some of my roll (from $370 down to $320), then finally found time to play a bit more regularly and got back into the groove a bit. Worked back up to around $350 then logged on tonight for a couple games:


Lol, crazy night. Fired up 2 tables after visitors left, every suckout against me I'd come back with a suckout on the other, one table went from 1.5 BBs left to bigstack in about 4 hands. Then these finishes.

Literally played final hands v's the same guy HU on both tables within about 20 seconds of each other. I knocked out the third place on the 2nd table the hand after I lost on the first table and only played 3 hands after that (he folded the two before the one I posted).

I played 3 hands in a row on table 2 earlier:

Welcome back man, it's been ages! I've noticed some pretty wild and crazy stuff the past few days, must be the DONKS celebrating Christmas or something:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (8 handed) Poker-Stars Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FlopTurnRiver)

Hero (t1470)
BB (t390)
UTG (t1785)
UTG+1 (t3065)
MP1 (t1550)
MP2 (t2360)
CO (t1425)
Button (t1455)

Preflop: Hero is SB with K, K.
UTG calls t30, 4 folds, Button calls t30, Hero raises to t150, BB raises to t390, UTG calls t360, Button folds, Hero raises to t1470, UTG calls t1080.

Flop: (t3360) 6, 8, 2 (3 players)

Turn: (t3360) 2 (3 players)

River: (t3360) J (3 players)

Final Pot: t3360

Results below:
Hero has Kc Kd (two pair, kings and twos).
BB has Ks Ah (one pair, twos).
UTG has 7d 9d (one pair, twos). What the FUCK?!?!?!?
Outcome: Hero wins t3360.

Yeah, there have been a few times I've made "good" laydowns and then see two people show down absolute crap.

Still, whenever I see play like that, I just remind myself that really, they're the people we want to play against .

[FlyingSaucy]

UTG has 7d 9d (one pair, twos). What the FUCK?!?!?!?

donks abound.
Last night on the bubble my story goes something like this:
I'm the shorty with around 900, blinds 75/150. Big stacks in the blinds.
UTG is midstacked and raises to 600. As I'm trying to load up another table, the game window pops up in front of my mouse and I flat call the 600 with 83 diamonds. Button pushes, UTG folds, and I of course realize the error in my multitabling ways and am forced to make the call for my remaining 300 on the bubble. BB flips over black KK, I show my 83s, flop comes 3 diamonds. UTG was pissed and I said oops. Misclicks do wonders for your ROI.
