*** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Who's in? I've already sucked out on GigaBet at table 69. (AJs v AQo)

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

I'm in.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

I'm in and it's looking to be expensive for me.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Looks to be cheap and boring for me. People need AQs+ JJ+ to go all in. No gambool.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Possibly a minimum price for me... passed up about ~15k chips here though.

Bad laydown? I've got enough chips for post-rebuy, but I could've gotten a ton here. (i.e. chipleader) I limped just to see if I could catch an Ace or TPTK or nut flush draw on the flop, KidKGB hadn't pushed much in the last 15 minutes or so.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Guys, what are your thoughts on this hand? It was the last hand before the break and UTG is riverdave who (I think) is fairly well known and good. He's been playing tight since he got over 10k. As you can tell, I folded. Would it have been worth it to risk my 10k stack? I was fairly certain that I'd get calls from the 2 players to act after me, so the pot would have been something like 30k. So here are my options...

1. risk having 5k at the break for the chance of having 30k at the break.
2. take a sure 12k at the break.

Edit: I should say, incase I haven't made it obvious, that I'm pretty sure I'm behind to riverdave or at the very best, a coinflip.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

19,421 at the break, a bit above the average. At a table with Exitonly4... very angry table. And moved during the break.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

21.5k at break. was up to 48k.

i have a serious bad habit of bluffing WAY too much in MTTs. not necessarily too much, but bluffing too hard at a pot once i decide to bluff at it. i didn't used to do this and i'm not quite sure what made me start. i do know i need to stop it though.

On the upside, I hope my entire table saw me stack someone with 46 on a board of 24QJK. I suppose it could be good since I still have enough chips left to do some damage.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

swingiest tournament of my life. already back up to 33k 2 hands after the break.

and i'm fairly certain that anyone at my table that's been paying attention thinks i'm a maniac.

i'm starting to think that maybe i am a maniac.

Ha, yeah well...

at least they'll never suspect that i can beat 3rd pair.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

woo, tripled up, despite being heads up preflop go guys caught in the middle. i gotta try limp-pushing more often.

32k

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Nice, come to my table and just call all my bets and you'll have an average stack for ITM.

Actually, judging from the last hand I played, if I can just wake up with a hand sometime soon, I'll have about 60k

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

I'm in. Got about 53K at table 36.

check this hand out. Villan was just moved to table, I have not seen him play a hand

afterwards he acused me of slowrolling him! I took about 45 seconds to decide. I have to give him credit for possibly having queens, thats one of the few hands I would call a reraise oop from when the other stack can break me.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Very very strange hand. But up to 56k. One of the guys said he folded AK.

He reheated a couple of my steals. Too bad I've been card dead since the last break, I was itching to bust him up.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Out... flopped 2 pair v. flopped set. The thing is, I knew he had a set and could have gotten out of the hand with ~22k left.

I really should stick with SNGs and NL ring. Multis are very very -EV for me.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

And I go out of the 7:45 10+1 as the guy catches his miracle card pairing his lower kicker on his Ace.

74,520 at the third break, a bit above average.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Down to 40K after getting sucked out on (a fricken 3 outer), oh well. Time to make some moves.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Fourth break, sitting with ~110k. I stupidly tried to make a move against a guy holding a medium PP on a K62 flop, but he wouldn't lay it down so I was basically f'ed.

TT hits sets more than other pair.

He's up to 630k.

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

Way to go man. I'm sweating you until I go to bed, which probably won't be long from now. Good luck, hope you take it down.

if you had rags on that big hand with insanegamble, you're my new hero.

either way, nh.

So you were down to what, 5 BB after that J7s hand? Nice comeback.

(And remember who doubled you up! [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img])

Re: *** 5+R 15k Guaranteed ***
 

actually, i was down to 10k w/ 4000/8000 blinds.

And then weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
