    VERY unlucky here!! Great call


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    Rob raises on sb, bb goes all-in, thinks for ages and rob calls with KJ, bb has 22
    flop Q5A, tons of outs, overcards, flush and straight draw
    turn is Q
    river is ..5
    Split pot, wow, that is quite the call!


    Damn you scotty, why didn't I just copy and paste it instead of going to effort of writing it out!


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    Nice, rob just won good pot when he re-raised all-in pre-flop against HedgeQuant, nice addition to the stack


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,924 ✭✭✭shoutman


    I think Rob will like this new table, only two stacks have him covered which is good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,767 ✭✭✭Scotty #


    MOved to a table now with mostly low stacks. I can't stay awake.

    BEST OF LUCK ROBBIE!!!!

    What happened in the end?


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,008 ✭✭✭slegs


    where did he finish?

  • Registered Users Posts: 6,646 ✭✭✭cooker3


    He came 51st, got it all in with AK versus QT. Needless to say QT made 2 pair and that was that.
