Raiser(G.Forum) Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? Finished 2nd. Heads up, 1k more than kermit next to me, I call his reraise with 89s, I flop top pair and decide to put him all in, he calls with 2 overcards (a truly awful call by anyone that does it) and gets a J on the river - fcukin going on a run of these muppets getting the better of me despite playing the right cards and laying down good hands - don't mind me, I'm off to headbutt my gerbil. Hand #285915428 at table: JonnyTexas F/O Sat. Started: Tue May 02 21:37:16 2006 raiser98 is at seat 1 with 2620.00 RiverDaddy is at seat 3 with 3335.00 RiverDaddy posts the large blind 30.00 raiser98 posts the small blind 15.00 RiverDaddy: --, -- raiser98: As, Jh Pre-flop: raiser98: Raise 90.00 RiverDaddy: Raise 300.00 raiser98: Raise 840.00 RiverDaddy: Call 840.00 Flop (Board: 5c, 2d, 9c): RiverDaddy: Bet 1830.00 raiser98: All in Showdown: raiser98 shows: As, Jh (high card, Ace) RiverDaddy shows: 8c, 9d (a pair of Nines) Turn (Board: 5c, 2d, 9c, 7c): River (Board: 5c, 2d, 9c, 7c, Jd): raiser98 shows: As, Jh (a pair of Jacks) Mainpot: raiser98 wins the pot of 5270 with a pair of Jacks For the record i called because i thought i was ahead! simple as that - i admitadly got lucky. However, you need luck sometimes and i managed to get it at the right time. Also, instead of slagging my game off on this forum i suggest you look at your own game first - that preflop call was (IMO) not the best!.... i was quite compllmentary about your general play on another forum, but i dont appreciate being called a muppet etc etc........ Looking forward to hopefully playing you again on monday in the forum Vs forum challenge. :tongue2 Ps What on earth is this >>> :nana ROFL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Puntalot Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? Raiser - go read Doyle Brunson's book, can't remember which one it is now, but he calls it a "poker sin" to call with only 2 overcards, a raise by all means, but calling an all in was a shocking move. As for my calling your re-reraise, its HU, it's always loose HU and I play loose HU all the time. I had the chips to call you, but I stand by what I said, it was a truly awfully poor decision to call me with only 2 overcards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are full of it!! :moon IMHO, i couldnt careless what was in my hand - if i think iam ahead at any point in a hand and someone puts me all in i will call every time.... i will repeat that again just in case you didnt understand me the first time..... I couldnt care less what was in my hand - if i THINK iam ahead at any point in a hand and someone puts me all in i will call every time. I like the way you tried to make out that you fell foul of a bad beat or something in your first post on the subject!! So my advice next time you intend to slag someone off: 1) post the hand history 2) post your comments on a private forum 3) i bet you are well annoyed that i tracked you down :nana (these smilies are great) I will quote and unnamed person on this hand "he hit the flop, you hit the river, thats poker" :cow :moon :rollin Good luck on monday BTW - i think you need as much of it as possible :D :tongue2 - because if you keep making stupid preflop calls with crap you are going to run into to a hell of alot of trouble!

Valiant23 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? Pre-flop odds: Raiser - 62.18% RiverDaddy - 37.50% Post flop odds. (when the money went in) Raiser - 21.92% RiverDaddy - 78.08% Post turn odds Raiser - 9.09% RiverDaddy - 90.91% Funny. Now I'm REALLY looking forward to Monday - if he is a forums' good player. And before you say you thought you were ahead - b-s! You had nothing - not even a runner runner flush or straight. You called cos you were tied to an Ace. I hope you don't realise I'm right - its plays like that, that pay for my treats.:ok Thanks for putting up the hand history, I didn't realise how far ahead Paul was.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raiser(G.Forum) Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? At no point have i disagreed with the fact that i got lucky after the flop - i know that and everyone else knows that!! The fact he made such a pathetic call preflop was my main point & come to think of it moving all in himself on the flop when he was first to act is CRAZY - i obviously shown strength preflop. It was a very very risky move on his part IMO - i could have any over pair. All in all the best player on the table won the hand and the game!! LOL - oh and not to mention iam from the more superior forum.....:tongue2 :rollin :loon (these smilies are great!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Puntalot Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? Dear Kermit, It was preflop heads up, very different to preflop with 6 players or more - go read a book.

Sharpe1ne Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? Now it's time to get myself a bad name.Now only being able to see 1 hand history it's a bit hard to make a decision,but Mr Ross' bet on the flop could look like a panic bet to preserve Ace high with a small kicker.I would have gone for it and called the all in(and if i had lost then so be it).More reviews of hand history's would help maybe Mr Ross had made some bad moves before this hand and Raiser fancied his chances.

Sir Puntalot Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament?

MattD Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Re: Wanna play a Live TV Tournament? Just to put this thread back on topic a little, I realised that only 2 prizes: 1st: Entry to Jonny Texas Invitational on Sky (worth $5000) 2nd: $3000 might mean when it gets to heads up, people will be fighting to get the 2nd prize rather than the first. This could make a mockery of the heads up. Therefore, we have come up with the following enhancement: 1st: Entry to tournament (worth $5000) 2nd: 40% of remaining funds ($1200 if 16 players in final, as expected). 3rd: 30% of remaining funds ($900) 4th: 20% of remaining funds ($600) 5th: 10% of remaining funds ($300) This should hopefully mean everyone playing will be trying for first place, rather than second! Though, second at $1200 is obviously pretty attractive too. If you haven't entered yet, what's keeping you? :nana :cow :nana (whilst on the subject of emoticons, we must get some of these for our forums!) There are only 8 spaces left, with satellites running every day until Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
