Default You wouldn\'t think it possible!!!

Ok, 7 man LIVE (yes, live, not online with fixed cards!) tournament, blinds 25/50 and starting stack of 2000........

Now sit back and read about the three most amazing hands played back to back I've every seen.


First hand, BB with 55, small blind made up after all folded so me against Tarny (who calls anything with anything)

Flop - 5 9 K (rainbow) figured Tarny would call anything so after he checked, I bet 200, he goes all in, I call, he turns over AA, my trips hold up - first hand and I've doubled up!!


Second hand - SB with 66, everyone folds again (WTF!!!?????), I raise to 300 (blinds now up to 50/100 as they increase blinds when people drop out), BB calls

Flop - 2 6 7, i check, BB bets 500, I go all in, he calls and turns over 77 (Nooooo!!), his hold up. I've just doubled up someone and back to my starting chips


Third hand, Button - 44, two limpers, I raise to 300, SB (large stack) calls, limpers fold

Flop 4 6 10 (two hearts), SB bets 500, I go all in, he calls, turns over Ah and Ac,.....
Turn is Qh
River is 8h...... so runner runner hearts gves him the flush!

Three hands, three times in a row I flop trips and yet I'm out!!!???????

And they say "I'd rather be lucky then good".... he certainly was! Going into the 4th hand as he's got 6000 in chips and blinds now 200/400!!! God help the rest of the table!

So how much did you lose with those two flopped sets? 5 or 10 bucks?

It a poker league run in the UK in bars so although you only win a small amount on the day, you get points pushing you into the regional and then national play-offs. Then the prizes are huge. So only lost £5 buy-in (about $3) butmissed out on loads of points.
