Topic: #4 Bitcointalk Poker Series @ SwC Poker (0.06 BTC, BIG BTC Ticket by SwC) - page 15. (Read 31838 times)

I am back as well, not only that I registered for all the tournaments until the end of our series.

While grinding up krill this morning I had a very profitable/lucky hand. I had KK from begging and raised, other guy raised my stake and I went all in 5000 chips, he followed and he has, guess what - KK. Long story short there was 4 diamonds on the table and I had the right king in the end So I used the profits from there to secure buy in till the end of series.

Good luck today, you are going to need it  

Silence... I will be playing tonight, I guess that's the reason?

There is one free buy-in for today's game sponsored by iv4n guys!

I think I can use these in my training.

Thanks so much for taking the time to make them.

Q#4: https://play.swcpoker.eu/?tournamentId=58532606

I can assure you that you are not alone with those aspirations.  

So, we can expect a tough(meaning entertaining) game this Sunday. You can't imagine how eager I am to punish those aggressive players with some good bluff-catcher. But we'll see what happens. Sometimes you call a seemingly obvious bluff from a regular raiser, and ... Whoops!, you lose. "That's Poker Baby!", as they say.  

Ivan... you know you cant win - I have started playing more seriously until I secure 5th place and then I throw... lol

Very nice move, thanks for that - so if anyone would like to join the series, ivan will generously be paying for it - give it a try, you will still have a shot and in series #3, someone who only played one (I think it was one...) tournament even won the lottery.

Well I count that one of the seats for the final table is mine! Others can fight for the remaining 8!
I have troubles to get in the money in this series, but this Sunday I plan to change that! More than for money I will play for 10 points! I have my eyes on some players (don't wish to name anyone), and their little games will not pass this time!

I will follow the good example set by others! For the first new player 1000 chips for buy-in with 400 chips fee for Grand Finale and Lottery from me! Rules are the same, must be bitcointalk member and new player in our series!

It's a tight race indeed. Anyone, absolutely anyone, even someone who missed all the first 3 games, can make it to the finals still, because we have 5 games to come. On the other hand, the place in the top 9 isn't guaranteed even for Pitkins(21 points), because, for example, you needed 25 points, at least, in the #3 Bitcointalk Poker Series for that.

So, I encourage new people, who love to play poker, join us in this Series, because it's definitely not too late yet.

Ah, you have been already missed. Was already wondering..

So you are surfing? Thats an excuse I can accept. May I ask you where you live that you got those big waves?

I know you gents miss me

Doubt I will play very much in this series. Super busy time of year for me and there have been a bunch of hurricane waves out there every weekend that need surfing Its pretty much the ONE thing that will keep me from Sunday poker.

Good luck to all!

Congratulations to the 14 players on Sunday, especially those who did ITM, and those who did ITP.


Everything ok!

But if it is good to say and the recommendation is; make your "send" early.

In my defense I must say that I was with the issue of the satellites or the placebo effect of getting that ticket, so that by individual conditions of fun, to be able to say, I got the buy-in. man! I still enjoy being able to enter this way, and it also serves as a warm-up for those of us who are not on the daily rails of poker.

This week I'm going to the Gym but the "pokerGym" ... I put a few hours this week in SWC, writing you this I swear I hear the song "eye of the tiger" in my head

In fact, the entry to MTT Q# 3 was at 1200.
The route was not the satellites, they were desolate, only another user accompanied me on the waiting route ... but the minimum number of players never arrived.

So I noticed there are some Tiny turbo tournaments [500 GTD] buy-in.48 + 2
And voila! hit the first one, I actually, I left all my abilities and desires in this tournament, you see the thing about not being in shape (lack of poker gym) ...


Thanks for your good vibes not only here but in the tournament, a GG is always well received... in a late "chat" effect : GG

The chat is off for me in SWC. <500

congrats on taking it down yesterday, @Steamtyme.

fingers crossed, i'll have internet again after today so i should be back next weekend. i'm going out of town on work next week but i think i'll still be around sunday, tentatively anyway. this is turning out to be one hell of a month......

Yeah it's nice seeing 4 of a kind but it did make I couldn't really think of a way to get paid anymore on the river. Though that board was so connected It was nice knowing I had the nuts.
I would say you are playing fine, you folded out top top instead of calling down and losing your stack. Not much you can do before that to get away.

I have updated the spreadsheet for finishes. Still a tight race.

Looks like some of you aren't happy missing your chance with the best player sitting this one out... you know who I am talking about...

@kolloh LOL... you rock the SwC tournaments on a regular base! Congrats! I have to repeat, looks like our level isn't too bad after all!

Alot of us actually feel awful about ourselves especially after that lame play yesterday. Whats worse is that with only 14 registered, it should be 'guaranteed' points if you actually play a tighter game compared with the others but yeah shit happens

I feel awful about myself yesterday and tried to go for the little BTC tournament on swc as a redemption, satellited myself with 100 buy in. I was doing decent on the satellite and on the early stage of the tournament but then shitty gameplay from me made me out again. I really need to hold myself from clicking that all in button if Im not 100% sure I might win the hands 

That reflect the playstyle I played yesterday.
One fish move followed the other, was tired and jammed pocket 8s on the flop with an open-enden straight draw for 40BB. That move was punished immediately by QQ.

My goal should be to get atleast in the ranks which are paying points. Will not punt myself out next sunday like yesterday.
..Prepare for the nitty seek3r! 

I remember that hand! Wow you had for of a kind Q´s??? Lucky me, I played AK, the flop was K, Q and a low number which i don´t really remember.
So you have been in front on the flop already, when the 2nd Q wouldnt come on the board I probably would have lost everything 

Anyway, I just play bullshit last tournaments - dunno what is wrong with me :-/

It was a tight game! You and Globb0 predicted it right.

After losing my chance to triple up by folding A5s, preflop



I quickly went down to 5 BBs, and lost all of it, going all-in with K9s(which could be expected with 7 players at the table).

Not the best play from my side, but overall a tight and thus thrilling game, which I enjoyed very much.

Congrats, Steamtyme on the win!

Congrats, Obaming and Pitckins for finishing ITM!



GG, everyone! Let's play even tighter next Sunday!

GG everyone and congrats Steamtyme!

Only 14 players today, for a second straight week, some regulars missing again, i hope that downtrend in attendance will not last for long.
It's always nice to have at least two full tables to start the game.

I had almost the exact same experience as last week, short-stacked after going against some unfavorable river cards (plunging under 3k), then start shoving my way into the final table and finish 3rd, that's back to back ITM for me and 21pts (leading atm). Yo, what the hell, that can't be? haha

Anyway, gg again and cya all next weekend!

Congrats and welcome. Glad you made it in. I wasn't around early and had to register on the highway lol. Had a fishtank emergency and had to drive 2 hours to get my daughter a heater for her little Beta fish.

Glad I made it back though. As Iv4n might say score one for the bad guy today. I took it down today but no one made it easy.

I had to play the player in this hand. I can't remember all the details but I think you limped in and I was one of the blinds. I was hoping you had a strong hand as I've been caught by you limping those a few times. Decided to keep with the slow play a bit and got lucky you hit top pair on the board.

I had some great hands today that actually got paid. I hit Quad Q's against 1ron1c I believe, the board was so wet I couldn't risk them just checking back on the river so I bet out half pot and they thought about it and folded. I'm assuming it was something like AK, but there were flush draws and straight draws that also hit, and the paired board.

Then there was my Iv4n suckout, negating his straight on the river. I almost folded to your 1500 chip bet on the turn; if I only had the flush draw I was going to fold, but with the straight draw added in I couldn't pass it up. Like any true villain I willed my 3 outer 9 and took it down.

Solid final table today. I rolled into heads-up with a massive chip deficit, 20K VS. 40K ish, managed to get to even stacks then it was a battle with each of us gaining and losing fairly equally. Final hand wound up being my AQd against their A9s, I can't remember if they opened and I 3-bet or if they limped and I raised, either way I believe they jammed and I called.

I'll update the spreadsheet this evening. Great game again today everybody.
