Mr Smurp had taken all my chips when he rivered a Royal Flush. Wasnt too gutted as I had figured he didnt have AK or AQ which would have p1ssed me off as I rivered a full house
Blinds were 400/800 I think .
Mr Smurp had limped in along with John in the SB
I had AJ and checked
Flop comes AhQhKd .
I check it into Papa here (possibly should have bet?)
When he checks behind me I know I am ahead
Turn comes Ad.
Now I bet 2000.
He calls
River is Jd.
I bet 2,500 he raises to 7500.
I actually do think of flat calling for a second, but my gut feeling was he would pay me for a straight or a flush
Like I said I didnt even think of the royal flush.
I go all in for 32,000 odd and he calls in a minisecond with his royal flush.
ahhhhhhhh

**** that's unlucky

I would have folded to the shove fearing quads.

mr smurph got me also.
24 left, avg 28k, i was in decent shape on 30k, he had about 85k.

i made it 2.5k with Aks, he makes it 6k, i shove, with a decent image, and he knows im not messing with his stack, and im expecting a fold or maybe a call from QQ and a race, he INSTA calls with JJ and i lose the race.

Completed the SB with 66 after 4 limpers I think so 6 to the flop at 75/150.

T65r. I shouldn't have, but I check, expecting a bet from somewhere, but no.

Turn 7. I bet 600, chief raises to 3k and after a think I call, leaving 2.5k behind. River is a 4 and despite all inside me screaming not to I pay him off. He has 89.

I find that when I run bad I play bad after a while which makes it harder to recover from a bad run obviously. I think I threw in my last chips along with a comment along the lines of 'Might as well, it'll cap a terrible 10 days'. My heart wasn't in it after his turn raise. If I had shoved it in on the turn I would feel a little less upset about the whole thing.

Donktastic. I can't qualify that as being chiefed as the free turn card killed me and I refused to get away from it.

DeadParrot

donked off my stack with AK into jj
lyyod then killed my off with KJ into 33
but made my buyin back with roulette so hapy days
then loads of pints so excuze the spellings

Poker upsets me. Even if I "can dodge bullets baby" (folded KK to AA pre - flop). 9 hours work - €0 reward.

Spiral, yes thats DJ Spiral i'm talking about, is 3rd with 83k and thats right on average stack. Smurph, Mr Smurph (Martin to some!), 30something, delanec8 and another bloke in contention for the €4700 1st prize.

best of luck this evening Tony

HalfBaked

Good luck today Tony, take the puppy down!

58o

Good luck Tony hope you take it down.
Really enjoyed this in spite of going out in a pretty unlucky manner 15th or so in a 60000 pot. Least Donk filled tournament I have ever played in, no easy chips on my table bar the first 3 levels.
Pretty pleased with how deep i went considering how card dead i went in the middle levels. Kept alive by picking some nice spots and one outrageous luckbox moment. (I push for 10bb with 7 8 off and get called by button with 99. Flop comes 9 10 J. Liquid poker baby:cool: ) Was one pot away from a final table stack in a quality field but not to be this time. Its a great testament to the structure that i was able to get away with a n 8BB-12bb stack for so long. Well done to John and the lads for another cracker.

I can concur on this point. Another great tournament with plenty of time for play. I managed an upsetting 12th.

Well done to Tony Smurph and Martin (who made a cracking call but got very unlucky in a pot that would have given him more chips than God) for final tabling. Best of luck to all this evening.

Yeah you looked as if you where torturing yourself all night and not enjoying it at all

Had a funny moment last night. Noel (BCB) raised from UTG+1 to 375 (50 100), I called from one off the CO with AJo as did Aodea in the BB. I had the ipod on shuffle, and at the start of the hand Kenny Rogers 'the gambler' came on (out of 500 songs), any way, the flop came A 9 8, and Noel led out for 875, just as I was contemplating what to do, Kenny piped up ' Ye gotta know when to hold'em....'

I so wanted to push there but i was afraid that you had flopped 2 pair.

I had K4o btw :cool:

Flushdraw

Cheers lads, gonna try my best. I'm treating it was an Irish Open qualifier so a top 2 place is good enough to fund a ticket so thats what i'm aiming for.

I got very lucky to knock out 58o. Sorry Shane. I reckon you raised more at that table than i've raised in my life! You raised UTG 4 of the last 5 hands so i made a dodgy call with Q8 from the BB hoping to take it away from you. Flop comes 679 so i lead out for 16k i think and the push from you was only about 12k more so i had to call. I hit the low end of my straight to beat 1010.

We all need a bit of luck sometime!

Well done tony, GL in the final......
Went out in 13th myself... got short stacked after turning 45K into 15K without playing a hand through a carddead 3 hours.
Mighty toutney despity the €0 result.

Mac.

No worries Tony, I figured i was due some "feedback" for all my recent raising and once you made the flop raise the hand played itself. I've inflicted worse beats on others (as you recently witnessed) and hope to do so again in the future!

GL tonight

AKQJ10

good luck delanec8 hopeyou can take this down.

smurph

Good luck everyone, me included tonight, lost half me stack at final table on the last hand of the night,

Blinds 2k 4k guy raises to 10K in early postion, then a short stack goes allin for 20,400, folded to me i have Ad10h, limp in, around to original raiser who flat calls.

Flop comes A 8h 5s, I check as I know if he likes the Ace he will bet, he checks, happy days. Turn is 4h, he checksi bet 15k he calls, River is 7h. He bets 20K I call, he turns over Ah2h for the nuts:(

I reckon if I had of pushed the flop he was the type of player who would have called, so even though I felt i got unlucky to runner runner flush, i could have done my whole stack.

70K add so on way now to SE,

Great tournament, felt the final table last night, you could see the tiredness in people, I have flush draw in my SB so it should be a doddle:eek:

I would've definitely layed down to a push, the flop was either a raise or a fold for me, flat calling was out of the question. K4 huh?, the cheek:) , you probably got me to lay down the best hand on that 10 high board earlier with similar garbage. I had 10dJd.


Good luck Tony, Collette and Delanec8, and remember if Mr Spiral checks in the dark, he has a pocket pair. Checked the turn in the dark last night with a flopped set, he turned a boat, board read 9 5 K K, and was very fortunate that bad beat Joe pushed AA into him.

He did it a total of three times during the time I was at his table yesterday. He will slowplay monters on the flop and turn and if he raises on the river you will require the nuts or close to it to call.
