44 BB in one hand??

I only post about this hand because I cannot believe it happened. Yes, I know it was at a low limit HE game(.50/1.00), but still a nice hit for such stakes!


Let me first defend myself by telling you this was at Americas Cardroom during their high hand of the hour promotion and it was also a low limit game. I only initially payed the 50 cents so I could see the flop and hope for a straight flush possibility and a chance at the high hand...

Here I pause to think about what I got myself into, but am dead set on this straight flush. Also, seat 0 has been betting and raising EVERY hand to showdown regardless of what he/she holds...

------ Summary ------

Pot: 44.05. Rake: 0.7

Player LLAMA shows: Full House (10/8). Wins: 32.05. Bets: 12.00


Not sure what seat 6 had, but seat 0 ended up holding the last T, coupled with, I believe, a 4.

NH MONKEY! however the hand history is very hard to follow! What cards were dealt? and why pay 3 bets to play suited rags? and why hit n run on players better than you? And why talk smack with no merit? and why and how do u know me? Why am i stuck 2 dimes today? WHY LLAMA WHY?

I refuse to answer any of these questions on the grounds I may incriminate myself...

My personal record in a live 10-20 game is a pot of 56 BB. As I understand it, this was nowhere near a record at The Hideaway.


2nd most memorable was a 15-30 pot of 30+ BB that went uncalled on the river with several opponents!
