HU with Perky (smerky) The world challenge - Page 2 - High Stakes Poker Pot Limit and No Limit

yeah, kenny tran is probably the king of private L.A. home games. he's made an insane amount of money in those games. supposedly they go as high as 100/200 NL.

as for NYC there is from what ive heard a Ton of big private games there almost every night. So that seems pretty good. There's also a sht ton of small underground games. And, arent poker rooms illegal in NY? id imagine that contributes.

LA is def insane w the private games. Ive played commerce like 5 times in the last year and pri games 4 days a week. I wont even *** w commerce. No reason to play 7 regs when i can play 3 epic fish, 3 abc's and 2 regs

Perky "once, run it now"
Flop KTX
Perky "I lied, I have a Ten, u really have queens?"
Reg flips queens over, tun X river X
Perky "nice hand"
Reg "FU, what u really have"
Perky "air" this goes back n fourth for a full min tll perky starts yellin at dealer to ship reg the pot cause he has air. Dealer starts shipping the pot and perky junps up and throws his cards down and screams "king ball" K4o! He starts doing laps around thge room fist pumping "nutter butters w the king ball".

gettin on the plane soon, i get in NY round 7am. Match commences early. Many days of fun ahead of me. Will update any hands/stories worthwhile, which I magine there will be.

Its a funny feeling knowing 99.9999% of all poker players on the planet are routing against you cause they cant wait for Perky to give em my money. I really hope to dissapoint.

Im sure twitter is more convenient, but posting updates here from my phone is pretty easy.

So, Im with Perky now. Already plans have changed/been altered. I got in around 8am and he picks me up w a change of plans- cards are delayed for a day, we're goin to the Hamptons for the day/night, then start play tomorrow.
Fine by me

I could very easily see this turning into a 4 day partying affair. He says we'll be back by 3pm tomorrow and start playing immed. I know myself and i know Perky. Pretty unlikely cards will be flying by 3pm tomorrow.

so we started playing a lil while ago. I woke up hung over and refused to drive back to NYC, perky went and got a chips set and we just started playing here. within the first 40 hands i was up ~50k. Perky reloads to 50k and says "*** this 25/50 sht, lets play 50/100 J" LOL so predictable. Very next hand, STACKED!

i raise btn w 56s perky 3bets to 1200 i call. flop 347dd perky fires 2k, i raise to 9k, perky auto insta shoves. i call. we run it twice i win both. Perky had Ad3d .

He insta tilted another 30k and is delaying big time now. making phone calls, sending emails, walking outside for "conference calls" etc. So im on aim, posting and screwing around on facebook while he "works" (LOL) during a HU match. Id be sent over the edge if he did this and i were stuck, but i cant imagine this'd be goin down if he was up.

We agreed he can quit when ever he wants if im up, otherwise its 70 hours play, and i can not quit him if im up before the 70 hours. the loser may quit whenever they like.

Perky yells from the patio "5 mins J, whatr u doing" i tell him posting on 2+2 and he yells, dont be telln those **** any bs and let all of em know, im ready for them after you. and your boy good2cu on 2+2 too"
LOL

Guess good2cu tried settin up a big match w perky this morn.
this is gonna be a fun weekend

we just finished day 1 ~6hours w me +120k. I was up $280k at one point. Blinds got to 100/200 and we were both straddling the button every hand.

Perky caught a sick rush and coolered me a few hands: Boat vs Boat and flush vs flush, etc and made a sick comeback, putting me up only like $30k. THENNNNNNN he hit the party favors. We just had to stop play for the day cause he's misreading hands and boards and basically laughing to himself bout things i said when we're sitting in silence. Last hand before he quit was when i fired 16,000 on the river and he called w 8 high thinking he had a straight.

We're goin to party for the night and resume play tomorrow.

Fun story for the day: ~$35k pot perky check i check.
Perky: its urs i missed.
i table an airball
perky: *** me, shoulda bet
i start reaching to scoop the chips
perky: (in very excited laughing tone) "nutter butters. you didnt see that comin, w ur little $40k slowroll rule did you bitch"!

I got a pretty good laugh out of this

im pretty certain that when we start play tomorrow perky will still be up from this morning and in a parallel universe. perk/coke/oxy/etc is a helluva drug
