AdMMM

In breaking news, the round 3 game between myself and Zuutroy that resulted in him getting a walk was played today after he kindly agreed to it.

I made a pretty lose call in the first game with JT when Zuutroy 4bet shoved giving me 1.6 to call, but I think it's okay if he's shoving with 88+, AJ+ and the odd random bluff.

The second game was swung in my favour when some random railbird came in and begged for $5.50 to play a very important tournament! I promised him 40c if he'd cheer for me. The pressure got to zuutroy and the constant chants of "GOOOOO MURDERERER" got to him and he soon ran into my KK with a lesser hand.

Thanks to zuutroy for the game and for agreeing to play the match even though the deadline had expired.

KevIRL

Fair play to Zuutroy for agreeing to play the game. Good to see the spirit of the competiton is still alive even at this late stage. Congratulations to Murderer on his victory

Here's the revised round 4 draw

1. Aegilops V TommyGunne
2. Ionapaul V Slash/ED
3. Spectre V White Knight
4. Armanijeanss V Phantom_Lord
5. HiCloy V Murderer
6. Ruush V Requiem4adream
7. Cardshark202 V Lauralashes
8. Culchie V Chdpoker

I'm away from tomorrow until next Monday, I sent Murderer a PM to see could he play this evening, otherwise will play when I get back

TommyGunne

TommyGunne 2:Aegilops 1

Tight games, went down to the wire. Very tough to get any chips! I only got my chips in ahead once, but I got lucky! I sucked out in the first game QT vs A4, got it in bad in the second with an underpair in the second:o to lose but I got 2pair vs TP in the last game to taint my record of getting it in bad in all 3 games.

WP and ul.

aegilops

Well played Tommy. Good luck in the next game and take the whole thing down.

4. Armanijeanss V Phantom_Lord

1:1 after a tough grind! We're gonna play the decider at the weekend.

ArmaniJeanss

ArmaniJeanss 1v PhantomLord 1.

2 quick donkathons on iPoker with 10 minute blinds and not much room to manouevre from level3 onwards. 1-1 a fair result I think.

As per prematch agreement, decider will be on Stars at the weekend on some H2H tourney table where the blinds don't increase (It sounds suspiciously like a cash table to me ).

Good luck, will PM you tomorrow/Friday to arrange.

KevIRL

Good luck at the weekend lads, stick up on the thread when yer playin in case people want to rail what could be an epic game...

AdMMM

HiCloy wasn't around yesterday (not on MSN anyway), so I'm guessing we'll be playing when he gets back.

Slash/ED

Slash/ed 1 - 2 Ionapaul

First game he took, the big hand being my C/R with air on an AAQQ6 board on the river where he shoved over me and left me crippled, despite my KQ > A7 aipf he managed to take it. Second game was over in a heartbeat, j8 vs 78 on a 88t board, cooler really, gave me the win. Third game he semi bluffed the turn, I called him with 2nd pair but he hit his straight and then we were almost dead even when we picked up AK and 99 and got it in, gl in the rest of the tournament.

ionapaul

Twas 3 good games IMHO, lots of fun. Hard to get NL tables on Sunday evening on Stars, let me tell you! So we played all three PL instead.

AdMMM

I'm going to try sort out the games with HiCloy today.

KevIRL

Hi All

Due to a few people having technical issues/being in Vegas and also the shorter time frame for this round, I'm gonna extend the deadline to complete the games till the end of this week. So you have until Friday evening at 6pm. I'll do the QF draw then.

ArmaniJeanss

2-1 for me.

Exhausting stuff, seemed like about 100 hands in the 25 minutes it took.

I won a mega race with KQ v 77 when I'd 20% of the chips otherwise it would have been an easy victory for PL.

After that I got slightly the better of the blind stealing for the next 10 minutes and had a 60/40 lead when I was lucky enough to have QQ when PL had TT. And that was all she wrote.
Cheers.

phantom_lord

well done, best of luck in the next round!

AdMMM

Murderer 2 - 0 HiCloy

Really doesn't represent the true nature of the games. In the first game, I got my money in so bad on numerous occassions but GJP threw me a sympathetic bone each time. I finally got my money in good and it held before getting it in bad and hitting trips when HiCloy was left with 6BBs.

The second game was short and sweet. HiCloy flops the nuts, I flop a gutshot and the nutflush draw and I hit the flush on the river after all the money went in on the flop.

Good game by HiCloy and I feel embarassed to have come out on top!
