OcUK Poker Thread.

yep, was OK though had a fun day though

was sat next to Maria Demetriou all day and had a right laugh, especially when she succeeded in just winning the blinds with flopped quad Aces

I assume it's a compliment when a player of her standard tells me I have been a pain in the arse all day :p
 
WSOP ME Final Table starts tomorrow at 8pm UK time for those interested.

I'm a heartless sod I am, 3 players left in a $10 SNG, 1 guy disconnected so me and the other guy raced through his blinds, folding to each other and knocking him out, then splitting the cash. :o

Think my HU play needs a little work - played 10 SNG's tonight - 1st, 4th, 2nd, 2nd, 6th, 4th, 2nd, 2nd, 1st :/

Unlucky Pandion. I was playing a £1/2 live cash game the other week and it brought about a 6 way all in pot.

Remarkably it was AA v KK v QQ v 10 10 v 55 v 66.

Don't ask me why the 5's and 6's were in there :D

Pot was worth at least £2000 and the Aces held up to scoop it all. The kings were mine :(

Well, knowing how popular PokerStars is, id imagine that they would go on for at least 5/6 hours, but a lot depends on starting stacks, blind times, KO rules etc etc

Last time I made a final table in a regular tournament, it was 5hrs 55 mins before I was knocked out - 5th out of 1,263. Finished about 20 mins after that, so typically 6 hours I'd say. Bigger tournaments with lots of $$ on the line can last anything up to 12/13/14 hours.

Duhamel against Racener for the WSOP ME bracelet tonight - 189 million plays 30 million. Some sick, sick, sick hands at the final table:

The second victim was also sent packing on a coin flip, albeit an exciting coin flip. Michael Mizrachi's AQ loved the QQ8 flop, but Matthew Jarvis' 99 liked the 9 turn a little bit better. It looked like he'd just saved his tournament life, but the river A gave the pot back to The Grinder and sent Jarvis off in eighth place.

Jason Senti's AK out-flopped Joseph Cheong's 10-10 in a big way as the dealer rolled out KKQ. The turn J was a little sweat for Senti, and the river 9 was a total disaster. Cheong's straight pushed his opponent straight out the door, and Senti collected seventh-place money on his way to the bar.

And this was mine from just now:

Personally put him on a missed AK with his flop bet, hence the raise, was committed to his shove and well.. :rolleyes:

FT hates me today.


And another one - I'm done for today, this is quite incredible the number of <10% shots beating me today, didnt get it on replay.

K8 BB, cutoff raises min, SB calls, I call.

Flop 88T - cutoff bets pot, SB calls, I raise to 3x, cutoff shoves, Sb folds, I call.

He shows AT - turn brings a T, river 2. Fed up, really am. Played so well lately and this happens :(

Come on then ladies, what do you do here?

Brilliant, another spectacular beat to add to the list.

.10/.25
Me: $27ish
Him: $29ish

UTG+1 I make it 3x with KJc, he makes it 6x. Me = ???, but I take a flop anyway.

Flop K25, 2 clubs. Me = :). I let him lead with $1.50, I pop it to $4.50, he calls.
Turn J. Me = :D. I let him lead again with $4, I come over the top for the lot, he calls. He shows KQ. Dead to 2 Q's.

River? Qh. Of course. Almost predictable FT is. In fact, 4 times that session I correctly predicted his cards, knowing he'd outdone me, and several times what cards would appear on the board.It's quite uncanny,no?

It depends on the villains preflop 3bet % is. If he's playing with stats of like 50/30 with a pre flop 3bet of like 20% then no, KJ is not behind that much.

But then, of course if the villain has 20/10 with a pre flop 3bet of like 3-5% then yes, behind a lot of the time. But, 4 betting out of position there is a bad play. Personally, I fold to 3 bet or maybe call, never 4 betting there.

yeah course but like if his 3x 3betting then stabs IP for 1/2 his most likely semi-competent with say apporx 6%-12% 3b.

Agreed he probably doesn't fold to the 4bet tho. My point was I would rather fold with KJs as so many combos of Kx that crush us. But IF I wasnt going to fold then i would 4bet instead of calling (depending on reads/more info on villain). at 25nl anyways... at 100nl where players will take a 3bet/5bet line with trash we get in more difficult spots pre but at 25 regfish play very honestly!!
