    Hey guys, long time since I posted on here!

    I'm buying into the Main Event but don't want to have 10k at stake. So I'm selling off some percentages, I am not really bothered about mark-up but because money would be transferred online I'm gonna do a little bit mainly to cover exchange rates, fees etc. I think 1.1-1 is still fair, I'm pretty sure that it's still good value :) If anyone is interested send me a PM and I'll get back to you there

    Thanks

    ffs i keep missing out on these-best of luck van dice


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,700 ✭✭✭Van Dice


    Just as well you did Robin :(

    On dinner break now but it's been horrible so far.

    Starting table was pretty tough, only one poor player and he was to my direct left. Anyway, lost almost every pot I played for the first 2 hours, mostly through flopping very badly. So down to around 26k. Then squeeze with AK from SB, get called by good player, don't cbet a co-ordinated middle card flop with 2 suits (can't remember exactly what the cards were), and check again on Qo turn. He bet 2/3 pot, I kinda wanted to call twice but eventually passed. Not sure I like any of that hand tbh.

    Then the bad player limps UTG, SB calls, I have K5o in BB. Flop Kd Ts 5d, I lead 550 into 600, UTG makes it 1550. I call, and he bets 4k on 3h turn pretty quickly. I think in hindsight I probably should fold there, but he had been overbetting a lot of strong one pair hands to protect them. Including 5k into a 1k pot with KK on 654 flop. But he had been raising most of those type of hands pre, so I think I see KT or 55 most of the time. I called anyway and he checked back a blank river with KT. Then he fistpumped and patted my shoulder. FML.

    Table broke with that player on around 95k, lol.

    Lost other hands with AQ on AJ4 flop I bet, bet again on J turn and fold to a big raise. 3bet TT fold to a lead on AKx.

    Win a few ok pots, bluffraised a flush completing river with middle pair against a good player, and value bet 3 streets with top pair where the other guy who I thought was a station folded the river.
    Then just before dinner I 3bet AA vs a fish from 700 to 2050. He check-calls 3k on a JT9 rainbow flop, check-calls 6.5k on a 6 turn and open shoves an 8 river. Sweet.

    I only have 9k left, on dinner, and somewhere in the middle of feeling sorry for myself, lifetilting, and laughing at it all.

    Will surely double soon though :)
