Small Stakes vs. InternetTexasHoldem.com--the hour draws nigh
The Battle of the Boards: Small Stakes vs. InternetTexasHoldem.com tournament approaches.
Today, 3:00 PM EST, PokerStars, $20+1 NLHE. If you want to register, we're still taking all comers. PM me for the password. I'm guessing we'll have an unequal number of entrants on each team, but Mike Haven has provided us with a weighted scoring system to compensate. Presently there are 26 registered players: 14 2+2ers, 10 ITHers, and 2 uknown players. Does anyone know who "Mickey724" or "trnguyen70" are on PokerStars? |

I was sitting on the fence, but got out of my other obligations, and am now registered.
Good luck, play well, Bob T. |

Re: Small Stakes vs. InternetTexasHoldem.com--the hour draws nigh
Well, I promised that I suck at NL, and I am a man of my word.
There are 38 total players, 22 2+2 SSers (how great is that?) and 16 ITHers. I busted out 29th when 2+2er BugsBunny decided I was bluffing preflop when I (the SB) raised to 300 with KQo and called from the BB with 97o. The flop had a 9, I went all-in, and he called. Anyway, feel free to stop in on PokerStars and check it out. There's some fun smack talking going on. |

If you had raised any more than that I would have folded, but since I was already in for a chunk from the BB I figured I'd call and see a flop. After that I figured you for overcards, or maybe a weak A.

Doesn't look like we are doing so good.
I was short-stacked pretty much the whole time after giving half my chips away early when I had 77 limped, called a raise, check-raised a flop full of undercards and folded to his all-in reraise. On my final hand I pushed from the button with JTs with about T900 and 50/100 blinds. The big stack called with QJs from the BB and I didn't catch my miracle, so my only showdown of the day was a loser. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Sorry for miserable performance. Out in 24th when KQ runs up against Tosh's TT.
Had to be the coldest cards I have ever gotten in a tournament. Jim |

Yeah, I busted out both you and Clash - sorry. I figured you'd be raising light there, but even so almost folded it. If I wasn't suited, or if I couldn't have afforded to lose, I would have folded.

Early exit for me. Short stacked and on the button with A3o. Folded to me and I double the blinds, reraised by the SB, I move in, his 99 holds up.
I blame London jet-lag, not my pathetic NL skills. |

Re: Small Stakes vs. InternetTexasHoldem.com--the hour draws nigh
I went out 21st (fashidus). I had the coldest cards ever, out of the first 100 hands dealt, i saw 4 flops, won 1/1 showdowns, and 4 wins no showdown. AA Once, all folded.
Last hand, shortstacked, I pushed all in with 8 outer OESD, wanted the other 2 to call, they did, I hit the 8 outer on the turn, but the board paired for chipfargs set to go full. Tightest NL Tourney I've ever seen the first hour. |
