Token Frenzy


If you need a token, this is a pretty good start
(of course I didn't end up winning one)

Skillz Winner

Congrats Joananda...............
Hey how about a tournament live blog. I am playing the Blogger Skillz Game. This week it is HOSE.
6:40 - 1 beer down. End of level 1 Hold-em. 2870 chips. During the level.....

Looks like we have 24 runners after late Reg.

My opening table I had cemfredmd, pirate lawyer, champsampson, muhctim, jeciimd and myself. All good players from what I know (with the exeption of perhaps me).

Kinda quiet in here, gotta fire up some BDR.

For omaha h/l, the tables re-balanced and I was moved now I have:


6:50 - Still on Beer 2. End of Omaha. 2900 chips.. During the level.....

Not much to report, played only one hand, had AA8x. Flop 677, Turn 7. No takers.

7:00 - Just started Beer 3. End of Stud Hi. 2545 chips. During the level.....

Ugh. Stud Hi is my worst game. Okay, so the pot was raised by a queen. I also show a queen and have 1 hidden. So I reraise, and bet out every street. Brick, brick, brick, brick. Sophie2002 wins with 10s and 8s. This may be a short live blog. NO, I WILL COME BACK.....maybe.

7:10 - Still on Beer 3. End of stud h/l. 2490 chips. During the level.....

Split one pot with LJ. I had 7 low w/ 2 pair, unfortunately no straight. She had aces showing and also a pair of 7's.

7:20 - Starting Beer 4. End of Hold-em. 2550 chips. During the level.....

YaY!, won a pretty big pot (1350) from Heffmike:


Then lost a bunch chasing another diamond flush. At least this time I was chasing a nut.

Then some more lost betting into an A high flop with my 10s. Hey, I made 60 chips that level. Nice.

7:30 - Still on Beer 4. End of Omaha H/L. 2350 chips. During the level.....

Need a hand to play, gimme a hand.
Need a hand to play, gimme a hand.
Need a hand to play, gimme a hand.
Need a hand to play, gimme a hand.
Need a hand to play, gimme a hand.

Okay, we're at the first break. Joanada has the chip lead with 6662 while MrBlanky is in the Dank position with 945. Buddy is the runner-up Dank. Everyone is still in. As stated above I have 2350. 18 of 24. My slow and steady decline continues. And, hoorah, here come stud hi.

Here's my table now:


7:45 - Starting Beer 5. End of Stud Hi. 2065 chips. During the level....

Gotta ramp up the beer consumption, everyone needs an excuse.

Chased a spade flush for a couple of streets, brick, brick. Tried to catch on a couple of others.

I need to re-read Stupid System.

Rolled Jacks......

( would have inserted the screenprint here, but I spazzed like a little girl. Anyway, I think I bet twice and won the pot)

Yay!,

7:55 - Beer 5. End of Stud Hi/Lo. 2565 chips. During the level....

now rolled 2s.



Anthrax on BDR, "I'm the man". Forgot all about this song. Me Likes.

Nothing else to play

8:05 - Still on Beer 5. End of Hold-em. around starting stack I think (forgot to check, damn beer) chips. During the level....

We've lost 6 total. Blinds are getting up there 100/200. Time to go big or go home. Wait....I am home.

Lost a bunch with 77 when I kept betting into the overcards on the board, then folded to a re-raise from nzgreen on the turn.

Won some back. AK raised on button king flopped. Currently in the Dank. All in soon, hopefully before Stud Hi.

oh, KK, let's see....

Ain't my day, Ain't my day

and the very next hand, I'm all in w/ AJ against AK and flop 2 J's. Best hand sucks, who wants that, as nzgreen said.

8:15 - Beer 6. In the middle of Omaha. not very many chips. During the level....

Where is my all-in hand....... Oh, here it is. All in pre. only had 775 and blinds crawling up my ass.


15th out of 24 and never a factor. Par for the course. Hope reading this recap has been as disappointing as my play. But I'll be back to play again next week.

Later,

NYRPS #12 and Blogger Tourney Satellites

Was first loser in NYRamblers poker series last night. I was able to take out the gracious host in the first round. Got a 2-1 chip lead on him, then he reversed it, then I won a big hand to put me way up. Finally was able to finish him off. Second round I drew someone named Kazor. I also got up on him 2-1, but alas, it was not to be. He steadily beat me to a pulp. At least I lost to the eventual winner,...... I guess.


Us bankroll challanged people should find a way to satellite into the blogger tournies, especially with the upcoming BBT4, and I have mine. The 50 cent rebuy satellite to the double duece. I've played three of them in the last couple days and won 2 seats. Unregister, and poof, almost 4 blogger buy-ins for the bargain basement price of $7.30. Can't beat that.

Had a big long post about how I fucked up my tremedous chip lead, but had to delete it because...
como se dice....
BBBBOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!
Need lots more of these to afford BBT4.

This is how you stage a comeback

let me count the ways

How could I possibly screw this up....
(not this hand, the chip lead)
See next post for the ways

Finally.....something

I have been on quite the downswing. Any little bit helps.
Now I just need to outlast 10,000 poker experts and I'll be a thousandairre.

Naw, unregister.

dime

I'm the 4th best dime player in the world if you take out those pesky rebuys

8 game

These are fun. Sure it's only a buck, but that's a good portion of my bankroll on stars.

It keeps my concentration, mostly trying to figure out what fricken game is up. Usually multi-tabling and drinking. Not a good combo for mixed games for me.

straight flush

This got me off to a great start in this $26 token HORSE super sat.
But then a called some guy in Stud H/L thinking I had the low (he couldn't have), but I didn't even have a low. Dumbass. We're on break, but I'm all but out. Fuck me.
