  1. $20 Freezeout, second in chips at the final table. 12672448 if anyone is still up!
  2. I'm there watching it now. GL. Take it home.
  3. Likewise. Take it down, Mc!

  4. well..gg man. 400 plus aint bad at all.
  5. Out 8th. Lost a brutal hand against the chip leader when he made a bluff but got lucky...didn't have to stones to pull the trigger on the flop even though I knew he was bluffing. Also couldn't do it on the river when I knew the ace would scare him. Sadness

    Went out when my A10 couldn't catch against queens. *sigh* GG me.

    On another note....anyone capable of folding this hand? Again, I just about knew I was beat on the river...but still paid it off. Not a huge loss, but a loss nonetheless when I knew I was beat.

    You're at a (nearly) full table.

    You get AT off, not in the blind.. and re-raise all-in pre-flop? In this situation, any hand that calls you has you completely dominated, as TRok1 did (71.1% to 28.9% pre-flop, and it gets worse from there..).

    Now, I know you were at the table and I wasn't. I just think I'd pick a better hand to get all my chips in with, particularly given that stack size. It wasn't nearly desperation time yet.

    Just one Hokie's opinion.. congratulations on the $380+ profit.

  7. Hokie,

    Yea, that hand was a combo of tilt/frustration, along wiht the fact that TRok had raised double late in position twice before and taken down pots without a call. FIgured he could be making a move, or might just have a small pair or something like KQ, maybe K10 and I"m a favorite. Maybe I could've waited for another situation with a better chance to steal the blinds and antes, but as I was steaming I was looking to double up and get back in it. But again, with blinds at 8k/16k and an 80k stack I can't wait forever. But in hindsight...I definitely could've folded and normally would've ( I folded AJ just a few hands earlier)

  8. Good, as long as you learn something from this, then you'll make more than $380 on it.

    (so I'm told, anyway.. I apparently haven't learned jack shinola yet.. heh) ;)
  9. How can you root for someone named McPeePee. :)
