Yikes! I got hosed tonight!
I was in a live six player $5 SNG at a pub and get dealt AA from UTG+1.
We started with 40 chips, blinds are 1/2 going up with each elimination, and I have 35 chips after 2 orbits. Nobody has been eliminated. UTG folds, I raise from 2 to 8, folded to maniac SB who re-raises all-in. It's folded to me, and I call. Flop: 2K5 rainbow Turn: 6 River: Don't [censored] ask! And I lose all of my chips. Next tourney, 3 people eliminated by4th hand, blinds are 4/8. I get dealt 66, my virgin 40 chip stack being the second smallest of the 5 remaining. I push from UTG, having 3 x blinds worth of chips, and I get one caller, who has KQs. K comes on turn and I'm down to 6 chips. Next hand, I'm BB and put my 6 chips in. My 75s hits two pair and I make 16 chips against A2o. Next hand, I get K9s (of clubs) from the SB and push. BB calls and shows AQs (of diamonds) Flop comes 6c9c2H (giving me a flush draw) Turn comes Kd (giving me top pair + flush draw) Only two cards can beat me now... And guess what comes up? An As(s), of course. |

I feel your pain [img]/images/graemlins/crazy.gif[/img] But the good news is* your getting your money in when you are holding the best hand against extreme longshots!
* I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance. |

[/ QUOTE ] lol...66 is about even money against KQs (but I had to push that, given the situation) and K9s is a dog against AQs (again though, I had 16 chips and the blinds were 4/8). Incidentally, two hands after knocking me out, the player in question would knock two more of the six players out when his AT hit a T all-in against AJ and AK and would go on to easily win the tournament after that. |

Damn it...I forgot what the second card was...I originally put a T there until I realised that he had no straight draw.

Re: Yikes! I got hosed tonight!
How can you be mad losing with K9s vs AQ, even if he hit a redraw you were lucky to hit yours in the first place.
Also, the tournament you describe is the worst structure I have ever heard of, what a crapshoot. |
