why are you calling with a set? @ first hand

you coolerd yourself there
08-24-2008 , 05:31 PM
Beat: since Friday evening, 1214 hands, 57 pocket pairs, not a single set and just once flopped a made hand (wheel, no action)
Brag: still up 34BB
Variance: haven't run into sets, but instead into flopped boats or straights to make up the difference

Running break-even with cold deck must be good, right?
08-24-2008 , 05:57 PM
Brag: Received a check in the mail from PokerStars... my first ever.
Beat: Timing out on my HEM trial and having to wait for the serial.
Variance: PayPal's registration system.

Standard two-outer river suck-out. Villain apologized for calling and said that he put me on a FD. LOL!

You played the hand great, but don't you mean to say that an A92r board is dry?

Let's see. On the turn you have a FH and are safe but for one A or three 9's - making 4 outs. Looks like a pretty clear fold to me - you know he's going to hit!

[I'm joking, of course. It is pretty sick!]

Uneventful hand, you say. I would agree, except villian's stats were ( I kid you not) 0/0/0 after 77 hands. He timed down before folding and I really think he ended up folding kings.

Alas, this hand occurred right at the end of my session. Plus I was not directly to his left. Plus, it would probably take another hour or two before he dared to raise again.
08-25-2008 , 02:40 PM
after getting 0% luck as usual, yesterday, today my first considerable pot after like 30 hands, where i got AK 4 times and not one paired on the board before. When will i get a slack? I usually leave the tables after getting a bad beat, i dont remember the last time i played more then 200 hands.
