Went to the opening of Europes biggest poker club last night

It really is a superb place

anyway the opening was a 108 player £100 buy in invite only tournament and for some reason I was invited

ended up playing for over 9 hours and got down to the last 6 ( was utterly hammered by this time )

then with 3000/6000 blinds and 800 antes I get AJ on BB ( 5 players with about 50k chips each and one huge stack ), a couple of limpers in front of me so raised to 20k, one drops out and then the other comes over the top all in , leaving me with 30k to call but about 75k in the pot so I had to call , he says "you caught me" and turns over J5 :D

flop comes 4,6,7 and turn a 8 :mad: and out I go

got paid £500 (I must have been the grumpiest person ever to be given £500) :p

since found out that 50 mins later the club had to close at 6am ( law ) and the money was split on a chip count with the last 5 getting between £1500 and £2100

not sure whether to be pleased or gutted :confused:
 
unlucky rotty, however you must have had at least one slice of luck to get to where you did at the end of the night???

me - 9h 9s , flop 7c 8c 9d

I raise and someone goes all in , of course I have to call and hope he hasn't hit straight ( he called decent pre flop raise so 5,6 6,T aren't likely leaving T,J )

he turns over Ac Qc so is drawing for nut flush , turn is harmless and then river comes down a club :eek:


the 9 :D
