I'm here! Just skulking when I can. Will be playing the MSPT in May. Hoping to satellite in if I can. Trying to play more cash too, but work is too much most weeks.

I have children older than you.

I always assumed I was the youngest in the MI threads, but now I know I'm not!

Couldn't get anything going the other day at MCC until I took a seat at 2-5rxr .. and then it promptly fell apart. High hand fever wasn't as bad as I thought it might be.

I would play MCC daily if I could. I don't even care that the deck was not my friend all the time. When you can get guys to dump in over $200 with middle pair ... another guy shoved $265 into 9866 with AK. My last hurrah was a guy who called my Flop shove of $245 on T98 w T7 and went running flush cards! (I had QJ of course) Saw a player cold 4-bet $420 the B with 78o and then call a $1500 over-shove Flop of 763 ... Shover had J9s

One of those days where you have to realize that you played 'correctly' but just didn't get the results. GL

What's the high hand setup at MCC now? Any changes to their ******ed BBJ qualification split?

This table is where you should have invested all your money. I miss MCC.

The great thing about RxR is that you'll see things in hold 'em that you wouldn't see in a regular game without PLO

Like half the table leaving

1) They have $500 High Hand promos Monday to Wednesday during different time frames .. Monday (5PM to 1200) Tuesday (9am-5pm) Wednesday (Noon to 10pm). Bravo suggests either 30 or 60 minute windows but they were all 60 minutes on Tuesday. They even had 2 rollovers/pushes when the qualifying hand was 'only' AAA22.

2) BBJ main pot is still Q v Q ... I didn't really talk to any of the floors too much since they had seats for me both times I walked in!

3) On Sunday they will hold their first tournament in quite some time ... $150BI with $7500 guarantee ... $1000 added this week #1 as well. 1:00 PM No info on chips or structure.

GL

Structure in Toledo is good for this 100k. Lots of levels added. 77 runners at 10:15 this morning. 8 move on to Sunday. 14 left, I had 85k. blinds 300 1500 3000. I'm utg w Ako. I go 9k. 2 callers(!) around to the bb, who shoves 200k.... Too much xtra $ in there to fold I think. I call, he has qq. q on flop. coulda been a contender!

Bagged 358k in the 6:15 flight at Toledo yesterday, which also had 77 runners.

HH of the night:

Down to 9. The mood has been light with lots of banter and joking around. This hand occurs:

BB: 255k
SB: 325k
BTN (Hero): 240k

Blinds 5k/10k/1k

Folds to me on the button, I look at 72o.

(Ha, wouldn’t this be funny. I’ll raise, they’ll fold, I show the 72o, everyone laughs! Great idea!)

Hero raises to 25k, SB folds, BB calls.

(****. Whatever, a cbet will surely end this.)

Flop (64k)

KT5

BB checks, hero bets 35k, BB calls.

Well, I hope you’re happy, Alex. You’ve lost 1/4 of your stack with 72o.

Turn (134k)

KT52

BB checks.

Whatever. I’m done.

Hero checks.

River (134k)

KT52K

BB bets 18k.

(Jesus, how am I supposed to fold to that? Even if I call and I’m somehow good, am I really about to show this down...?

Ugh. The price is just too good..

Hero calls.

Villain says two glorious words:

“Ace high.”

“Ace high???”

*villain turns over AJo*

Hero sheepishly turns over 72o and tries his damndest not to smile.

And it turns out I was right, everyone at the table did find this move to be quite humorous. Well, almost everyone

Tune in tomorrow for my 16th place finish

At first I thought you meant bagged $385K winnings, and I was pretty salty getting my sob story ready.

Your meme hand is glorious, I now support you taking the tourney down :thumbup:

lolol nh

Are you going for the D bag you D bag?

Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

I thought they were both going to chop a 2-rag hand ... is there such a thing as Deuce-rag? Finish up nicely ...

Don't forget the $1K add-on today at MCC ... GL

No I could only play Friday night. Double bagging this event would be tough anyway.

Played the MSPT satty at firekeepers last night. They tweaked the structure from last time, anties start at lvl3.
70 runners/ 14 get a seat. With 16 left at 1500/3000/500, UTG makes it 15k with around 100k back. Folds to me on the button with KK and 56k. I'd say 5 or 6 people were shorter than me. Also worth noting an orbit before the same guy at the same lvl raised in early position to 9k, I shoved for 40k., and he mucked an ace face up.

What should I do?

Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

Depends on how short those 5 or 6 are, but assuming they’re not only slightly shorter, I fold and lightly sob at the table.
