Of course, he neglected to mention that Yugo would be there until after I agreed to meet him at the Wynn pre-super bowl. Oh well.

Just kidding. I was glad you to meet you guys. I would have told more people, but I wasn't really sure until last minute if I could make it or not.

I almost forgot about Irie talking Mama into calling me. I'm not sure if he thought I had a real hand and was trying to help me, or just mess with me. When I saw that she couldn't decide, I knew my A5s was probably in reasonable shape.

Philly,

Yeah, I can't believe that guy with the huge stack didn't just call both of you given her *obvious* weakness....He had like a bajillion chips so it seemed like the perfect spot to overcall.....so I was worried for you. Of course, he apparently [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] mama and sucked at poker and life.

So if you're in Vegas or So CA definitely let me know and we'll party like it's superbowl weekend and all our money is on the Seahawks! booyeah!

About 4 hands later, I'm BB with 88. Folded to SB who raises to 2400 (400/800bld, 100ante). I have about 28k. He has a decent stack of about 15k. I push. He calls with ATo and rivers an A.

Any thoughts about raising (not pushing) or calling with this hand instead? At 35xBB, seems like you have more options.

He had less than 15BB after his raise, so he didn't have many options no matter what I raised.

I could've called I suppose, but this guy is going to be sitting to my right for a while and I'm going to take any reasonable opportunity to send him a message.
