BCOOP Event #6 - Still on tonight???

Ste05

I presume this is still going ahead tonight, are people still intending playing in this or has the All-in Euphoria taken over for tonight and tomorow??

NickyOD

I'm all over it. Sorry I haven't updated the leaderboard. Like Shortstack I can't seem to get my finger out lately.

Unbelievable Nicky, it's almost like you're not being well paid :mad: .... oh wait :rolleyes: .... ahhh I suppose you're alright this time ....

My limit skills are pretty damn poor at best, I'll give it a go tho.

Lafortezza

Is anyone playing this tonight? Nobody is regged yet and I need to scab $11 off someone as I've cashed out from PS and can't lodge since I've nothing in my Neteller

Ste05

PM me your username (can't remember it) and I'll transfer you the $11,

Marq

I'm there. I'm not usually playing during the week but this All-in Poker satellite is on so I'll try my hand at this Limit malarkey in the background.

Lafortezza

I really want to apologise for everybody I outdrew in this event tonight. They are too many too mention but without you all it couldn't have been possible. I plumbed and bluffed and stole and eventually finished first.

I think my first victim was imposter, then Culchie, then Nicky, then I rivered a flush on Marq I think.

Then headsup against padraigf went on for quite a while, I was big stack for most of it but he played much better than me and I rivered one of my outs (any 7, 8 or 9) to finally bust him.

I think my worst moment was with 3 players left, Culchie raised UTG, padraigf 3-bet from the SB, I misclicked from the BB and capped the betting with Js5s.
I hit a J on the flop and was all-in against Culchie who had JcTc.
I think the phrase padraig used was "WTF?"

Another highlight was misclicking and calling Nickys raised with 96o and jamming a 9 somewhere along the way to win.

Feel free to add me to your fish list.

Good man Luke, anytime you want to be staked in a Limit tourney just let me know.....:rolleyes:

Worst call ever.:rolleyes:

I'm in the BB with 8T suited. Culchie raises in the SB for the 75 time. I call. Flop 3 5 7 with 2 spades. Culchie bets and I raise with a flush draw 2 overcards and 2 ways of making a backdoor straight. I'm shortstacked and he can only make one more big bet out of me if he wins. Culcihe calls with 1 overcard and no draw and wins. :eek:

You seem to be making a habit of that! Still I suppose you should bask in the glory of hitting runner runner hands, while it lasts! When the operation planned to remove that firmly lodged lucky horseshoe, it must be uncomfortable?

I'm getting sick of been outdrawn this week. Was dumped out of the all-in sat yesterday with TT Vs 88. Went out about 27th in a PS 180 person thing against a guy who reraises my preflop raise all-in with J8o and hits an 8. I had AK. And I won't mention me having JJ against AJ, or KK against AK... oops!

Hmmm ... my reasoning as follows.

You were shortstacked, and had to make a move and I was after your big blind again. I knew if you played the hand, you were going to play it to the end as you had only about 6BB's left, no matter what. So I decided if I had any of the flop, I would battle it out with you.

Flop (as I recall) because I made a pair, was 4 5 7 two spades, I had K 4.
I figured the flop missed you completely, had you for picture cards maybe a flush draw, so that was good enough for me to make a stand.
You turned over 8 10.

I think I read the situation well to be honest Nicky. A case of playing the player rather than just the cards. Whether you agree on how I played it is open to scrutiny, but I knew what my game plan was (right or wrong) and stuck to it.

PM Nicky with your PokerStars nick and he'll send you the passwords.

Ste05

There's the NLHE Heads up and the main event left, but I'm sure you can play in them if you want...

Actually the flop was 2-5-7 so you had nothing but King high on the flop and YOU CAPPED!!!

Culchie

4 on the turn, knew I had a pair.

So where was my bad call then?

I bet out into you the (shortstack) figuring the flop missed you.

lol. How can you figure the flop missed me? If I raise there I'll have "something". The flop didn't exactly miss me because even with my draw I waws favourite. You could have been drawing to 3 outs. In which case you're doubling me up and committing another 3 big bets (85% of what was already in the pot) when you only have a 17% chance of winning the hand if I have a 5 or a 7. It was like you were trying to get me all in preflop but the cards came up too fast.

Nicky, I dunno.

I think you're mistaking me for a little soft kitten that will lie down and fold just because you raise.

This is Nicky OD we're talking about here, down to his last hand saloon, will play any two cards, I'm going to put the pressure on.

Sorry, but you were behind on every street, so I'm afraid we'll agree to disagree. I'm OK with my play under the circumstances

You not factoring (a) your shortstack situation and (b) your image, and capability of playing any two cards... that's a compliment by the way and (c) sooner or later you were going to play back at me as I had been continuously raising into you, so I was expecting you make a stand.

You're also reasonably fortunate to still be in the tournament at this stage anyway after rivering a couple of hands not long beforehand....same as I sucked out on Muso with my last 300 and cracked his AA

If this is No limit and I go all in on teh flop, do you still call with king high and no draw?

because once I raise ithere ts exactly the same as going all in since 50% of my chips are in the middle.

But it's not no limit, and it was you who had to decide if they were going to commit all their chips to this hand or not, not me:)

I understood all along where this was going.

On Pokerstars surely not?
