I stand with Ukraine.

I hate pocket Aces. Every time I get them I lose, unless I go all-in right away. Yesterday was no different. I didn't want to go all-in in the beginning of the game, so I just raised a bit pre-flop, and was called by Goethe and SuckMyChips. Then I raised almost 10 BB after the flop, thought it would be enough for the villains to fold, but this was what happened:

Probably Goethe decided to bluff, and SuckMyChips ... well, I thought he had had pocket Js, 7s or 9s, so I folded. (I'm dying to know what he really had though.

)

That's how I lost more than 20% of my chips in the very beginning (with pocket Aces!).

Then, with some ups and downs along the way (I was on the 1st place even

for some time), I finished 6th in the end, after going all-in pre-flop with KQs:

Now, I wouldn't call all-in with KQs, neither would I go all-in pre-flop with those cards, expecting a call. I just thought knowing how cautiously I play, everybody would think I had pocket Aces and fold.

But I was called by imaginethat with pocket Js:

Alright, alright. What's next ...

So far so good. "You won!", my wife shouted, sitting beside me.

Okkkaaay....

Oops! And I was knocked out by the guy, who won yesterday's tournament.

GG, everyone!

Congrats, @bitmutiny/imaginethat, on winning the tournament!

Nice start from you Globb0. You are much better now than the 2nd series, too bad you wasnt on top 4 paid places today. Better luck next week to us, I will be seeking my revenge Cheesy

The game changed a lot near the end, I think I need to learn the next phase a bit more now.

Thanks.

Congrats to @bitmutiny! Cya all next weekend!

Out at 9th position and was really a dumb play from me . I was hoping for a straight and got strong guts feeling that Hhampuz might be bluffing. Saw him made some good comeback with some good cards so I thought he couldnt be lucky all the time and tried to go with it perhaps he was just bluffing but turns out his card was good Tongue

Well, I was kicked by Hhampuz too. Cheesy

Good hunting day for him. I had 44 and he had A10s. Usually, I don't play high bets with 44 but did anyone else notice too that 4 was dealing too many times among community cards today? So I thought another 4 will surely come. But it didn't happen and Hhampuz won the hand with the pair of Aces.

See you all next week. Happy Sunday.

We just got tricked by our own mind thinking that Hhampuz couldnt be lucky all the time, turns out this could be his lucky day. I still feel shitty about myself for that dumb play to be honest Undecided

. I guess I wasnt really focused on the game as well, was playing this while playing some mobile phone game with my friend

i had 10bbs left after that, and eventually lost a preflop shove w/ A9 vs K2 from @Hhampuz, he hit a 2.

tough break on that set over set hand, @Steamtyme. that gets me every time!

i was plugging along alright until this hand where i limped from SB w/ A3, @webtricks checks from BB w/ 37. we both turn a straight, me with a 6-high and him with a 7-high. i assumed no one had the only combination that beat me (37) but then i forgot about the BB special. Tongue

i had 10bbs left after that, and eventually lost a preflop shove w/ A9 vs K2 from @Hhampuz, he hit a 2.

Good luck y'all!

You're not getting off that easy lol. Pm or something if you are stuck again, I'll help you out anytime. That goes for any regular if you can't reload your chips in time.
22 minutes left and we have 17 so far nice turnout but let's hoe for a few more, 2 full tables would be nice.

Little less than 3 hours before the first game, there is only 13 of us at the moment but we have a history of registrations just before the tournament starts so I am expecting 18-25 players. Hopefully all of them will remember there is no late registrations this time around.

See you guys soon.

efialtis, 3200 chips has been sent to you few seconds earlier. Tx Number: 51848913
I will be registering for the tourney after making this post. Things are going back to excitement. I hope this time I do not finish close but take a place in the final with some winnings 😜

My thoughts exactly! Only not about you, but about myself, of course.

I finished 4th in the Grand Finale of the #2 Bitcointalk Poker Series(with 3 places paid), and I felt happy at the time, I really enjoyed playing with all of you, guys, but this time I want to really win something.

Well, I can only say, good luck in trying to beat me! Take it any way you want. Cool

I do. And I'm very grateful to you for making them! It's not that I watch every minute of the recording, but some parts are really interesting to reminisce about.
And, yeah, a bit of voice over would be great! Thanks for what you are doing, mate!

Quote from: figmentofmyass on June 27, 2020, 03:07:06 PM

if it's a hassle for you, don't worry about it. i have watched a couple and enjoyed it though. voice over would be great.

if only we could record it with all visible hole cards like on tv---that would be fun! i'd watch every minute.

Quote from: arallmuus on June 27, 2020, 05:40:59 PM

I watch few videos just to check on the games if I was knockout early.
~snip~
I'd say leave it as usual because adding some voice over might be a burden for you. The main point is to watch some poker games, if we can watch it clearly then it is good already. You are doing nice job recording it so I dont want you to feel any burden by doing some extra

Sounds good. It's no hassle apart from the odd program clash when I'm home. The voice over is something I might try as I think it would be fun. It might also help me in seeing how well I can analyse a spot, on the spot. Not sure when but it will be something I throw in when I have an abundance of time to sit back and cover some spots. Might even do a cut and just run with a FT or something.
I should think about maybe setting up the dual monitor so I can run a satellite as well Tongue

I did think about asking SWC if they would have had the replay from the Championship with hole cards, but I wasn't sure if other players at the table would appreciate it. Assuming SWC had it and was willing to allow me to use it.

Sorry to jump in here guys but I just wanted to point out it's pretty easy for us to just send chips between one another. Whether it be for a tip, or even a side bet. I just think it's best anything outside our personal tournament fees we handle on our own ends.

See everybody tomorrow.
