Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

Had my first real live degen session. I usually play 3-5 hour sessions. I played 16 hours (non stop) at Foxwoods for this one. I ended up playing 1 / 2 NL obviously. Went in with 400 dollars.

First table I am sitting at, a bunch of foreign exchange students who were Russian sat down. They started speaking in Russian, but a bunch of people complained to the floor since you can only speak English at the table. The biggest douchebags I have ever played poker with, hands down. The first guy played a huge pot, and actually shows down king high. He told me it is his first time playing live poker. O rly?

Next pot I play with him I have K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img] in a straddled, 6 way pot. Flop comes QJ5 (no flush draw). Bet of 15, 4 callers. Turn is the money card, a 9. I bet 40, Russian guy calls only. We have about 200 behind us each. River is a ten. I bet 50, expecting him to fold. Instead he just flat calls. He has AK. His friends all start applauding at this, as he turns to me and said “Nice hand”. I don’t know what tilted me more, the flat call or the applauding. Yeah, we’re going to war.

I manage to regain my composure because I know they’re terrible and the monies are being shipped my way. I make a point to get a seat change, so I have position on all of them, as they were playing a lot of pots together. I win a few other small pots in between to make up for the previous hand.

Next hand vs. the other Russian. I have QT off. 6 way limped pot. Flop comes Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]4[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]. Checked around, I bet 15, he calls, his friend calls, everyone else folds. Turn is Q[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. Checks around again, I bet 40, only one caller. River he has 130 and shoves. Its an 8[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. I insta-call and he flips over Q8 for the rivered full house. GG life. You guessed it, they applaud again. I make a mental note to slow roll the next chance I get.

I have K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] . 5 to the flop. Flop comes A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]2[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]. 12 dollars is the bet. Call call call. Me and the two Russians again. Turn is a 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], Russian bets 35. His friend comes along for the ride, as do I. River is a Ten, giving me the nut straight. Bingo, he leads for 50, his idiot friend calls. I insta shove for maybe 120 or whatever small stack I have left at this point. He calls and his friend folds. He shows me his 34 for a turned straight, and I look at him sympathetically. He starts to push his cards in the middle and then I slam my hand down, followed with some self applause, Russian style. I look at him and say “Thank you”, as I rake in the chips.

Next significant hand is a 6 way straddled pot. I am in SB and I think gee, it would be nice to look down at aces here. Instantly, two black aces appear before my very eyes. I raise it up to 22 because everyone’s a huge station. There is a terrible player with 1300 behind him, playing out of two racks at the table. He calls and we are heads up. I am OOP, flop comes K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]. I bet 35, he calls. Turn is Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], which I hate. I bet 55, and he flat calls. River the board is K[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img]T[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]8[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img]Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I pretty much only beat a bluff it feels like. I check the river, and he bets out 120 very quick. I think for 1 min and fold AA. He shows me a pair of nines, and I am pretty pissed. Yeah, I played that hand about as poorly as you can.

New table:

So I'm back to even. I then proceed to lose 4 more all in pots, getting rivered. I have QQ, raise to 17 and 3 callers. Flop comes 998 and I have position. Check, check, I bet 35. Both call. Turn is a 6 and they check again. Pretty sure no one has a 9 here, and I shove. Both call. The old man (huge station) announces "I know exactly what you have". O rly?

He flips over A8. Other guy has open ender. There is a 100 dollar side pot, since Gramps is the short stack. River is an 8 of course, and I tell him nice read sir.

I really start to tilt at this point. I start letting the table know. I straddle, and announce if anyone raises I am shoving all in (only have 85 left anyways). Someone raises to 6, 2 callers, I shove. Its folded around to a young asian lag, who tells me that he has 2 overs. Do I want action? He finally folds after making me wait two minutes. I take a moment to look at my cards for the first time, and I see 42 off, so I advertise it and turn my hand over.

I do this two hands later with AK. Raised to 12, and I call with 3 others. I am first to act, and I open shove without even looking at the flop. Nobody calls. Someone shows me they folded a gutshot (wow thanks, big laydown).

Next hand I get KK. Someone raises to 7 dollars, 2 callers, crazy asian raises it to 20. I shove obviously, and they start to think. Initial raiser calls, asian calls. I announce that my hands probably going in the muck. One guy flips over QJ, asian guy has AJ. Somehow my KK holds up. Ship the 300+ pot. Asian man tells me I set up well, "You a professional". Thank you sir.

I eventually get A[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img]J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] in SB. Raised to 14 pre-flop, 3 callers. Flop comes AKJ, vs. 2 guys who hate folding. I lead for 35. They both call. Turn is a 7 and I shove the rest of it. Asian guy tanks for 3 minutes and starts the interrogation process.

“You want action? You want me to call?”
"I'm all in sir, its up to you"
“I think we have the same hand (I initially think he has KJ or AK, because he wouldn’t think this long with QT). He finally calls 3 minutes later, and river is an Ace. I table my boat. Ship it! Back up to 650 or so.

I win a bunch of other random pots. I leave and am surprised I am actually up +400 or so.

Brag: Slowrolled Russian douche. Won 400 dollars after initially being down -325.
Beat: 160 dollars in rake over 16 hours.
Variance: I could have played another 10 hours probably.

beaaaat slowroll dude...dunno- it's something i almost never do. sounds wild.

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

I never slowroll. This is the rare exception.

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

you seem douchebaggy. this thread is now about douchebag slowrollers.

lol awesome trip report, <3 Foxwoods

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

haha how do I come off as a douche? I'm honestly a nice guy!

I never succumb to that level unless someone goes out of their way to insult me. This was the first time in my life, I guess its beyond BBV etiquette though haha

Seriously though, have you ever had people applaud every hand that they sucked out on the river? It's damn annoying

Also, apoligies to anyone who took offense to this story who is Russian. I didn't mean it as a dig at anyone who is Russian, these guys were just ridiculous

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

you come off as a douche because slowrolling is v douchey, esp when the players are clearly fish - the applause and suckouts suck but that's no reason to nit up the game w/ dick moves

i slowroll shortstacks online, not total live whales asking to be fleeced

(mixed metaphors ftw)

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

I wouldn't say completely fish. They were bad, but they definetly had a clue what was going on.

But, yeah it was pretty douchey. I will not slowroll anyone from hereon

mehh, they were being pretty douchey also, and it's not like they are going to get up from the table because they got slowrolled I don't think. If anything it will put them on tilt and make them play worse. I don't think its that big of a deal really. Not saying slowrolling isn't bad in general, but I can't really blame OP here.

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

I dunno, the slowroll, the "nice read sir", and especially the "thank you" after winning a big pot really really make it sound like youre a huge douche. Maybe you aren't, but I don't think I would ever do that, and can only imagine douchebags doin it

otherwise nice report, sounds like a good time

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

I think it was the 16 hour session. I just acted out of character, because honestly (ask any 2+2er I know on here) I am a genuinely nice guy

But yeah, huge douche in this post haha. Ty though

This post is like rounders, except not good.... and OP is a huge yobnutiy pidaras for slowrolling obvious fish and acting like a douche.

Do you not like money or something?

How are you gonna say you didn't mean it offensively when the title of your post is : " I never trusted the Russians"


And I second adanthat when he says: umri v ogne pozhalycta [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

It's a joke, its a title of a song. Inside joke, but most people who aren't into music won't get it.

Lol, someone cut me in or pm me all the russian translations ftw?

They definetly had a clue. I think the hand where he tabled king high was a set up hand. Especially because he made it a point to tell me this is his first time playing live at a casino. Because he definetly improved and understood how to play after that hand. So thats all I meant by it, he was lying to me.

[/ QUOTE ]No way. Russians applauding bad beats is fairly standard and the posters here are quite used to that.

I'll translate some more, this is after all a fairly useless exercise in kindergarten lexicon.

He put you on AK, obv. "Nice read sir", hmmm...this whole post is laced with comments like this. Which makes you look like a big duche.

AND I AM PROUD TO CALL HIM MY FRIEND! LMAO!

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

if [censored] like OP didn't slowroll these idiots, maybe they'd realize it's shunned upon, and stop

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

Meh, I liked OP's stooping down to their level only to give them their comeuppance.

I prefer a nice stabbing or a derringer shot but that's just me.

Thank god someone has some common sense. I am the nicest guy in the world until someone starts sh*t like that

Re: Friday the 13th at Foxwoods: I never trusted the Russians (long)
 

Also I made up the part about slowrolling to enhance the story. I have never slowrolled anyone in my life.

I can't believe BBV looks down on slowrolling that much though

okay, I'd have to start cracking down on the Russian insults now that they've been translated so this thread's pretty much run its course
