Very nice report... Tough way to go out.

I also noticed you're in Seattle... I just moved to the area. Do you play live locally? If so, what are the good local casinos to check out?

For the record...

I open 22 in CO for 600, button makes it 1500, blinds fold back to me. I’ve seen this guy reraise with AK, AQ, and he has reraised my LP opens before, so I decide to call and push any flop. Flop is 842. Okay, so maybe I’m not pushing any flop. I check, he puts me all in with 66, and I double up.

that's one.

I limp utg with 88 for 200, another limper, and LP makes it 800, both of us call. Flop is 876 two hearts. Checks to preflop raiser, who pushes for 7000, I call all in for something between 5-6K, other limper folds, and I crack AA.

I limp 44 in EP, MP makes it 800, with 4500 behind, I call HU. Flop is T94, and for the third time I flop a set and get to check call an all in bet. AA no good. I’m somewhere around 20K.

CO (stars kid begging me to take his chips) opens for 3200 I think. I have KJ in the SB and decide to just call. I feel like I’ve reraised him enough that he’s going to want to take a stand sometime soon. BB folds. Flop is KQ7r, I check, he quickly moves all in for almost 30K. I take off my headphones in a haste to make sure I heard him correctly, and almost call without even thinking about it. I probably got about half a syllable out of “I call” before I decided to take a second. After maybe 3 seconds I decided I wasn’t going to find a fold and made the call. He showed Q9 and my hand held up.

Now I have a stack and am sitting very comfortably with around 100K. I had just raised and gotten reraised, so I decide to limp 89s utg. Folds to MP who makes it 4500 with 40K behind. This guy is bad. He loves to make big folds and show them. He’s the kind of guy who I think I can easily semibluff off a strong hand. For these reasons I call. The flop comes A88, I check, he moves in immediately, and I call before he could believe it. He was absolutely disgusted when I turned my hand over, and gave me a really nasty look. I can’t imagine how many times he’s told this story of the young donkey who CALLS A RAISE WITH 89. He had AQ.

Blinds go up to 600-1200, I have about 140K.

I raise to 3600 UTG+1 with 97d, MP (another bad player) makes it 8K. He has between 30 and 35K behind. I make the obvious call of his 4400 reraise. The flop comes 972 two clubs. I check, he pushes, and I call instantly.

A couple orbits into the level, monster stack (700+) open limps in EMP, button limps, SB completes, and I look down at KK in the BB. I make it 15K more, monster stack calls, the others fold. Flop is K73, two diamonds. I check, he puts me all in quickly, and I of course call

giving you a hard time, but every story I heard was "I check, he push, I call."

quite an unlucky seventh time, but I enjoyed sweating you. hopefully you run this good next time I'm around.

it was a blast sweating you in vegas man. you played some kick ass poker. I can only say im jealous of some of the opportunities you got, and reading this trip report im jealous that I don't have an even remotely interesting one of my own. Can't wait to see you at some more of these events.

[/ QUOTE ]

It was fun having you there. There's no doubt in my mind you'll have some good trip reports in the future.

Re: WSOP ME Report (long)
 

Great Report-Some bad luck at the end, but at least you cashed! (I wish I could say the same for me).

Where did you win your entry for the Legends of Poker tourney? I'd like to look into it if they're still running satellites.

Re: WSOP ME Report (long)
 

One of the better reports I've read. Tough break - I'd get me a bottle for the night if I busted out like that.

Re: WSOP ME Report (long)

Re: WSOP ME Report (long)

Best of luck to you in the future.

Awesome report, I'll begrudgingly admit, even though you're a Husky. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Great write up, reading the bust out hand just makes me feel ill.
