Saving all the run good for the last tourny, I can live with that.

golf roll me over into any future package for same % gl

Thanks CJK and MDRoz. I sure hope I can fare better in the flip situations.

It is amazing how bad I am running with the coin flips.

AK<AQ
AJ<A5
AQ<AK

I sure hope I can fare better and cash in the last tournament.

Are you guys interested in one last cash session along with the tournament?

I would say a 3/4 hour session of cash game.

Otherwise, we can close the same out after the last tournament.

The Roll would be $905 if we don't cash in the last tournament or higher if we do.

I will let you know the cash game package details once this is complete. I will let you guys have the first dips.

A detailed report on Tourny 3 and 4 and Cash 3 and 4 would be coming soon.

Tourney 3 Update

It was a slow grind from the starting 8K to reach the highest point of 26950.

A couple of mistakes in Level9 decimated our stack.

The following is the way it went:

Level Average_Stack My_Stack # Players
1 8K 11075 93
2 8K 9525 104
3 8K 10600 111
4 8K 8125 120
5 8K 6225 124
6 8K 11075 127
7 14422 18125 71/128
8 17655 26950 58/128
9 22755 8800 45/128 Two mistakes here!
10 Busto at 39, AI for 5200 with AJos < A5s, Board: K7549

Level 9 - 200 ante, 600/1200:

Mistake 1:

One limper in EP and I raise to 3600 with A10s. Limper tank calls. Pot: 7200+ (V had another 7K behind)

F: K108 with one my suit, he checks, I bet 4K, he shoves for 2900 more Pot: 19K, I call, V had KQos.
T: 9
R: 6

We loose 10500 on this pot.

Stack was around 15-16K.

Mistake 2:

I am in MP and min raise to 2400 with AJos. SB calls. Pot: 4800
F: A103, he checks, I check to induce a bluff Pot: 4800
T: 3, he bets 2K, I call Pot: 8800
R: A, he bets 3K, suddenly this started looking fishy, I make the crying call. V turns over AQos.


We loose 7400 here. I might have saved 3K on the river. I don't think I am folding trips with a decent kicker here.


Hand 3:

I went AI for 7775 and the same guy from Mistake 2 makes the call after tanking. We chop the pot as both of us had the same hand (AJos vs AJos).


Ended the level with 8K at Second Break.

Level 10 - 200 ante, 800/1600:

Stack went down to 5200 after a few hands and posting the blinds.

There was an AI from Mr. Cat (as mentioned on twitter), this was his 11th/12th AI. He went AI a few hands before when his stack was at 4K with 910s. He was called by two people. Both of them had AQos. He flopped an open ender with 783 flop. He hit his money card on the turn with a J.

So, I wasn't too worried about his holdings here. I shove and we are heads up.

Our AJos his A5s. Board ran out K7549 to knock us out in 39th.


Win the goddamn flips GolfPro! Win the flips!

If you can squeeze in another cash session then I say go for it.

Sorry made a mistake in detailing one hand in my last report:

I am in MP and min raise to 2400 with AJos. SB calls. Pot: 4800
F: A103, he checks, I check to induce a bluff Pot: 4800
T: 5, he bets 2K, I call Pot: 8800 (turn was a 5 and not a 3)
R: A, he bets 3K, suddenly this started looking fishy, I make the crying call. V turns over AQos.

Thanks MDRoz for the confirmation.

GolfPro

niether one of those are mistakes... those are super standard and how you don't bust on the 2nd one is amazing...

For the record neither of your "2 mistakes" are actual mistakes. Thanks for the shout out.

CJK sometimes deep in the tournament you can sense that something is wrong with the way the villain is betting into you. As he was a big stack I was taking the less risky approach. I was happy to make the crying call and still be in the tournament.

Thanks TMade. So, are you back to your neck of the woods or you still at AC?

Can I assume everyone is ok with one session of 1/2 (3-4) hours in addition to the last tournament?

There was one hand in the 1/2 cash game that would be a part of the Cash Session 4 update I wanted to discuss:

Stack Sizes: 300ish Villan: 175-200ish

On the button I raise to 7 with 86os over 2/3 limpers. Villain raises to 17. We are heads up and I make the call. Pot: 34+

F: Q87 V bets 15, I call. Pot: 64+
T: 8 V bets 25, I bump it to 65. He calls. Pot: 194+
R: 5 V donk leads 50, I didn't get this bet, it is possible that he might have Q's as he raised pre and lead with a very small bet compared to the pot or he stayed around with a str8 draw. His raise pre is cutting the hands like str8 draws out of the equation.

He was left with another 70 behind, I chicken out and flat the river. He shows AQos. There is no reason for me to flat here, I should make him put the rest of the chips.

Sometimes I keep falling into this tournament mode and take the less risky approach.

Hello All,

Here's a draft version of the cash game package for your preview.

I will lock 25-30% percent for the investors in this package.

Let me know. I will post the same in market place today.

GolfPro

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hello Market Place Investors,

This is GolfPro. This package is for cash game action at MD Live. MD Live is my new tournament and cash game home.

I would like to call these packages as 366 MD Live Cash Package, as they will run for 3 Weeks, 6 Sessions and 6 Buy-in’s. My typical sessions are 4 hours each, so, 24-27 hours total. If successful I would like to run these periodically.

The cash game action is always great at MD Live. The cash game bankroll would be $1800 (6 full buy-in’s of 300). I would be playing for a total of 24 - 27 hours (4 hour sessions). There would be a profit lock at 500+ (300 buy-in) with a trailing stop of 10%.

I have done a package recently combining both tournaments and cash game play. The cash game play substituted for lack of tournament success and made the tournament buy-in’s as a free-roll. I can ask a few of my previous investors to vouch for me in case someone wants a validation on my cash game sessions.

The exercise of keeping track of all my hands made me a better player in cash games and is helping me build my cash game bankroll to move up in stakes.

Also, I will throw in a free-roll (on my own dime) $80 buy-in tournament for all the investors of the package.

For legal mambo jumbo and references please find included the links to my previous packages on MP:

I am fine with running 1 last cash game session if you want to.

Thanks for the confirmation thadarkman78.

Go for one mire

Sorry I've been away from the forums for a while and missed all the chatter... I'm cool with the one more tourney and one more cash session... Also put me down for 5% of the first 366 package when you post it and pm me the link to the package... I'll paypal the funds shortly thereafter... gl dude!

I'm back in MD and will be till beginning of Dec then headed up to WSOPc Harrah's, anyhow I am cool with 1 more cash session.

I'm not a big fan of how you played the 86o pre, but I think you played it fine after that. I don't think there are many hands you are beating that will call a shove on the river. AQ might be the only hand you can beat that will call a shove so the $50 is more then fine IMHO.

Let's see how we wind up and then most likely I am cool with rolling over whatever is owed.

I don't play a ton live, really any actually, but it looks a lot like a blocker bet in the 86 hand. People like to do that when they don't know what else to do/want to set a cheap price for showdown. Shoving is best (I think), he realistically is never folding AA, KK, or AQ, if he has QQ oh well, that's only 3 combinations.

Don't post the results right away next time, it makes it less fun.

I am also most likely going to roll mine over into the next package. GL in the final turny and cash sessions.

Go for one more and I'll probably roll over my holding to the next package.

Hello All,

The cash game part of the package is completed.

The following is the the breakdown:

Tournaments:
4 played 1 to go.

Tournament Roll: $80

Cash Game:

Sessions played 5:

Session1: 4 Hours -140
Session2: 3 Hours +649
Session 3: 2 Hours -339
Session 4: 2 Hours +135
Session 5: 4 Hours +377

Cash Game Roll: $600 + $682 = $1282
Cash Game Hourly: 682/15 = $45 (I know 15 is a very small sample)

I am glad the package ended up positive. The idea of including cash games wasn't a bad idea.

In regards to the 366 package:

I have the following percentages for the existing investors:

Gr8fulmouse 5%
LotGrinder 3%
MDRoz 3%
TMade 5%
CFalls 3%
Deke971 5%

If you want to change, please respond in the market place thread.

I will finalize the numbers once the package is completed and ship the difference.

Hello All,

The following is the update on Tourny 4.

I played the Tuesday 220 tournament. It has 12K SS, 30 Min blinds and $100 bounty for knocking out a player.

First things first, I really liked this tournament:

1. Good starting stack and blind levels with a cherry on top with the bounty.
2. There is a 10K GTD on this event, but, I didn't realize that the GTD includes the bounty (80 players made it 8K of the 10K GTD)
3. The play is miles different from the 80 buy-in donkfest.

The demographics:
Seat 1 Mr. Sun Glasses (SG)
Seat 2 Young Guy (YG)
Seat 3 CT Old Regular (CTOG)
Seat 4 Another Old Guy (AOG)
Seat 5 Hero
Seat 6 Mr. 23 Suited
Seat 7 Spanish Inquisition (SI)
Seat 8 Grand Ma Soul Crusher (GMSC)
Seat 9 Didn't get involved with this guy
Seat 10 Terminator (he joined late)


The following is the way it went:

Level Average_Stack My_Stack # Players
1 12K 8K 60
2 12K 8375 69
3 12K 10600 74
10 iBusto, Raise 600 from MP, Terminator (LP) is AI and I shoved for 5200 total with AQs < AKos Board: 9103 8 6

Level 1:

1) 48s BB, called a raise from LP for 300. 5 callers total.
Flop: Missed us by a mile. (-300)

2) 25s SB, fold to a raise. (-25)

3) A7s B, GMSC limps for 50, AOG limps for 50, I raise to 300. Both call. (Pot: 1200)
Flop: Q75, GMSC bets 400, AOG folds, I bump it 1200, GMSC calls. (Pot:3600)
T: 5, GMSC bets 1800, I tank and don't see her doing this with a 7 or below and fold. (-1500)

4) K9s in MP. SG started opening his range and Cbetting every pot he was involved. He opens it for 300. I call.
3 callers to the flop. Pot: 900ish.

Flop: K8Q 2H, he bets 450, I call. Pot: 1800
T: KH, he bets 800, I bump 1600, he calls. Pot: 5K
R: 4H, he hesitates and checks, I fire 1600 again (I would rather bet and fold than check and be unsure), he makes it 3500. I say I have a K and fold.
He shows the AH. (-3650)

Winning a couple of no showdown pots and we end up with 8K at end of Level 1.

Digression:

How did Seat 6 got the name Mr.23 Suited?

He raises in LP for 350. GMSC calls. She didn't fold many hands.
F: 45s8, GMSC checks, Mr.23 makes a Cbet 700, she calls.
T: J, GMSC bets 700, he calls.
R: 6s, GMSC bets 800, he makes it 1700, she calls with A7os and he shows 23s for str8 flush.


Level 2:

On the button, with two limpers, I raise to 400 with 86s. Both call (Pot: 1200). V1 is SG and V2 is AOG.

F: AA5 with one my suit. They both check, I cbet 850 and they fold.

No other hands at this level, we end up with 8375.

Level 3:

YG in LP makes it 325. AOG calls in SB, I call in BB (89os). Pot: 975.

F: 7J10 with 2 clubs. Yahtzee!
AOG leads for 450, I flat, YG folds. Pot: 1875.
T: 6 clubs, AOG bets 1K, I RR 2K. He calls. Pot: 5875.
R: 4, he checks, I check and our str8 is good on a flush board.

We end Level 3 with 10600.

Level 4:

Unlucky Hand

I raise to 450 in MP with 10Qs. Pick up two callers Button and SB (Terminator). Pot: 1350
F: K85 with one of my suit. I cbet when checked to 1100 and SB calls. Pot: 3550
T: 9 of my suit. He checks I bet 2K (with a gut shot and flush possibility), he calls. Pot: 7550.
R: 5, he checks and I check and loose to KJos.

This hand would have put me back at a comfortable position, instead I end up with 5Kish stack.

Busto Hand:
I raise to 600 in MP with AQs (with 4600 behind). Terminator takes a few seconds and goes AI. I felt
this is a decent holding against his range and shove.

AQs vs his AKos.
F: 9103 with one suited card.
T: 8 giving me a little more hope.
R: 6 and we are done.

Winning the hand in Level 4 would have put us back in the game. The event ended up having 90 players in the end.
SG got busted around 35th when his A's got cracked and came back to haunt us in the cash game for his last pot.

The details would be included in the Cash Session 4 review.

Tourney 5 Update

Thanks CJK for the virtual rail support today. I really appreciate it.

As always I felt I had a good chance at the home stretch, but, poker gods had other ideas.

On my BB wake up with K's (65K stack). There were 29 people left and 15 get paid. UTG opens the pot for 8K (1500/3K), MP goes AI for 28K. I take a sec to announce AI.

After all this, UTG still feels he has the best hand and calls my AI for less (59K).
Time to show the hands K's vs SS AKos vs UTG Q's.

Flop comes with three spades, I had KcKh. Turn seals the deal with 8s.

SS triples up with Ks, UTG takes rest of the chips with Q's.

I never felt as disgusted as this before. It was very very disappointing. I didn't feel like staying there anymore and drove home.

GolfPro

The final bankroll is $1282 with a profit of $282. We pretty much got a free-roll on all the 5 tournaments.

The percentages are as follows:

5% $64.10
10% $128.20

Those who have invested in the 366 package, I will ship the difference. Others will ship the funds tomorrow.

Thanks for your investments everyone.

Variance veered it's ugly head. Getting KO'd of tournaments is one of the worst feelings in poker especially when you get it in way ahead. I very rarely play cash after I get KO'd of a tournament unless I am feeling good which usually doesn't happen. You can always fight another day.

Thanks once again everyone for your investment and rail support. I have shipped the funds.
