Re: ***Official "It Lives, It Lives" Chat Thread***
Going down to Atlantic City this weekend. May play some at the Revel again just to check out the poker room. But I may not. Hoping to play some tournaments at the Borgata series this weekend at their poker series. Anyone going to be down, hit me up.
Re: ***Official "It Lives, It Lives" Chat Thread***
Witnessed a ridiculous hand last night:
Pro - UTG+1 (3.5k): very solid TAG, plays 5/10-10/20 live and 5/10+ online HU for a living.
Villain/Fish - Straddle (covers): older rich tourney player. has no concept of playing >30BB deep.
5/10 NLHE (STRADDLE 20)
Pre (35):
- Pro raises 80, bunch of folds, Fish calls from Straddle
Flop (175): J83
- Fish check, Pro bet 140, Fish call
Turn (455): 2
- Fish check, Pro bet 360, Fish call
River (1175): 3
- Fish BET 500, Pro RAISE 1200, Fish ???????
Spoiler:
Fish calls and wins with AK
obv, the "pro" wasn't repping much and pretty much knew the fish had nothing... but still, the fish/station BET/CALLED ACE HIGH?!?!?
Part2:
My hand against the same fish:
- fish limps, I raise 66 OTB to 50, and two fish limp/call.
- flop: AAJ... check to me and I check back
- turn:2... check, same fish bet 40, I raise 220, other dude fold, fish calls
- river: K... fish check, and i take the showdown.

Got my official notice yesterday that I will be moving on. Going to put poker on the back burner for a couple weeks (except for league game) and study as much as I can. Buying a suit this weekend for my interview. Mpethy has seen me before, I probably dont look like the suit wearing type. If I land this job probably going to take a week or so before it starts and head out to either Vegas (mpethy and jm3 hu4modz), LA (PB hu4rollz), or nor cal (stampler hu4food). It always ends up being LV.

You got let go from your job? I am sorry to hear that. I got fired when I lived in Kansas, best thing that ever happened to me.

Where did you work/what do you do for a living?
You missed the first part of this..
I am still working, but I am going through a hiring process for a career that I have been wanting to get in. I scored high on the initial test and got ranked pretty well. I got a notice that I will be moving on in the process.
