Sick Quads!
woensdag, april 15th, 2009Yes I played one of my most exciting hands, maybe thé most exciting hand ever, yesterday. Lately I’m playing some tournaments on FTP that give you the opportunity to win so-called ’satellite tokens’. For example, you play a $6+.5 sng with 18 players and the top 4 players will receive a $24+2 token. You can use this to play a satellite for a big MTT or just play a regular MTT with this buy-in, like I did.
I used a token to play in the $ 27.500 guaranteed. Now I wasn’t able to finish in the money but I did play a very interesting hand in the beginning of the tournament, giving my opponent a really bad beat. I made a nice picture for you:
It was raised preflop by the pocket sixes and a lot of people called, so did I with 55. Flop was certainly not bad for me, as I prolly still had the best hand and a gutshot straightdraw. It was checked towards me and I made a big bet, which was only called by the slowplayed pocket Sixes. Turn gave me a set and it was unlikely I was against a 3 so I fired again and was against flatcalled by the 66. I really had no clue where I was against but the river made me quads and suddenly the other player shoved all-in. Instant call
.
I also witnessed a marvellous donkey-move in another tournament yesterday. It’s really sick sometimes to see the play of some people, watch:
So it’s the button versus the big blind (f*ck those texas dolly’s
). They check it all the way to the river and the the heroic big blind decides to shove all-in with two pair on a 100 chips pot. The button thanks God for having a drunk player on the table and instant calls with the nuts
.
