NO.

Hit my first bad beat jackpot tonight, except for it being in 20 game where there is no bbj. And yes I had the losing hand.

Hero has AA
capped 3 ways pf

flop A Q 7

2 bets 3 ways

Turn Q

6 bets 2 ways

river 4

2 bets 2 ways.

I get the silver metal.

Pick up AA again 3 hands later the old old old man in the 5 seat calls 2 cold twice on the flop of KTx with AJ and hits his gutter ball on the river. Grand total of 3 outs in 2 hands (UTG says she folded QQ on the turn)

bout 7 hours later I pick up the blinds with AA.

an hour after that AA snapped of with another gutterball on the river, 74o this time.

Played with Howard Beale for a few hours and we both won a total of about 4 hands in 2-3 hours.

After all of this I end up winning 2 racks in 10 hours to put me down only $200 this month after having my best month ever in August.

I wanted to talk to you about that hand. The guy who beat you w/ the quads plays very conservatively even though his starting hand requirements won't impress many people on here. If he goes more than 3-bets at any time he's got the nuts.

Ya I know and there were a few reasons why I put in 8 bets. They may have not been good enough reasons but at the time thats what came to mind.

REASONS FOR LOSING 8 BETS:

1. I have aces full.

2. he has lost about 3 racks of chip in the last orbit.

3. If he shows me AQ after I stop raising- killing some one is an option.

4. One time I saw PQX a good high limit player almost fold in the exact situation. And I remember thinking I would never fold there unless they showed me their hand.

5. How often do you have aces full right? I mean does it really matter if I go 5-6-7-8 bets here?

5. I HAVE ACES FULL GOD DAMNIT!!!

At least it's one of those things that very rarely happens but I've become friendly w/ that player and he lets me sweat his hands sometimes and explains his actions. It is unbelievable the number of bets he misses because he sees monsters under the bed so if he's raising he's got the merch. That's very player specific but it's why we play live. If that old guy who hit the gutter-ball on you had been your opponent you could've kept raising but against the guy you were up against, no.

At least you won last night. I lost a rack. Because people kept hitting sets on me including you.

Yes, and I love that guy that was to your right that called me down with a flush draw and made 10th pair on the river and still called. He's my new friend.

Well Hass and Howard, your winning ways at the 20 game will come to a screeching halt tonight. I am back! After moving all of last week, then spending the holiday weekend in Vegas totalling killing my liver, but luckily not my bankroll, I am ready to win all the red chips.

Highlights:
-Played with Roy Cooke in both my 30/60 sessions at the Bellagio. This in itself is not a highlight, but during my first session (the sober one), he folded his BB in an unraised pot preflop. I promptly laughed at him during the second session (my drunk one).

-I won at both 30/60 sessions, a rack and a half the first one, and about 400 the second one, where I came back from being down 1400 because I was limping with 74o UTG because I was drunk.

-I tried to bluff someone off a straight flush on the river in my second 30/60 game, when a fourth of the suit came out, I bet, he raised, I threebet, he flat called with the straight flush.

-I slept for a total of 5 hours between 6am Friday and 1am Monday. This included nonstop drinking the hours I was up after 10pm Friday, except for my Sat night 30/60 session for 4 hours. Sunday morning/afternoon, I WAS THE ACTION at the 30/60 game, so if anyone played with a really drunk guy, it was me!

-I won $1000 at the 1/2 NL (Imperial Palace) game Friday night/sat morning while drunk, and gave most of it back Sunday morning while drunk, before wandering over to Bellagio.

-I lost the shirt I was wearing sometime Sat morning, I also tried to go to my hotel room with almot $2000 on the 1/2 NL table. Some guy caught me at the elevator and walked me over to my chip stack. He then asked for a tip. Since I was drunk, I gave him $20.

-I had three meals in Vegas, all involved pizza.

-I was shaking Mon morning from all the alcohol and lack of sleep.

-I am sick of Vegas until Decemberish.

Here I come Casino AZ!

I'm hung over just from reading that. Glad you didn't hurt yourself. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Anyway, don't focus on me please. My 'winning ways' have come to a halt. I might never win another hand of poker. Ever. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Yes we all (the three of us above) do. Why do you ask...

[Captain R]

Lost the last 5 sessions at 20/40.

Fortunately, they were all like 2-3 BB losses and I've been running crazy good at games I have no idea how to play (5-200 spread limit and 4/8 O8) so I'm actually like even.

Yesterday I played O8 for the first time ever and raised the 3rd nut low in a 6-way pot on the turn in position (everyone called) and then bet the river when everyone checked.

My 35 low was good on an A-4-7-8-T board with 3 callers. Hahahaha, ignorance is bliss. Everyone looked at me like I was mentally retarded.

Funny thing is I thought I had the 2nd nut low. Fook me, I'm used to playing Stud8 where A-3-4-5-7 is a monster! What a fish.

[Hass]

I get revenge tonight.

3 limps hero limps 22

flop 229 two spades.

capped flop.
capped turn
2 bets on the river.

Villan has 99.

Glad it wasn't me with 99 I would have lost....oh about 10 bets again.

And yes, I know Jake. Nice guy, good player. How do you know him?
