Default Re: Mike and Andrew\'s Rules 4 Donking 2-4 limit @ Sahara circa 4am

a buddy of mine and I donked a $3-$6 late night game (either at Sahara or possibly at Stardust? I can't remember I was so wasted). We put the whole table on tilt. He would straddle, and I would restraddle everytime the blinds came around. For one round we called out "every hand in this round is gonna be capped" and did so. We also got extremely hot cards and took down a couple of those pots with 93o (flop 99J) and 85s (flop 852). On my final hand I straddled with T6d UTG and got in for 5 bets vs. one player. I flop the ace high flush and we got max bets every round through the river. Finally he says "I got you beat! I got AA!" you should've seen the look on his face when I flipped up my cards. You should've also seen the look on his face when I tipped the dealer and picked up like 4 racks

easily the most fun I've had in the last three months

That can't be correct. There's no way a woman was still in the tournament at that point, or ESPN would have been making a big deal about it. IIRC, the last woman remaining was the redhead, Rose something. I remember this because she was from Tampa, and my mom sent me a couple of news articles about her run.

Anyway, I just watched the WSOP stuff last week, and I remember a SCOTT Carpenter being shown. And he looks like the young guy that's in the pic, IMO.

I did notice in the Hendon Mob database that there is a Suzanne Carpenter, who is listed right after Scott alphabetically.

Scott? I don't think so, I said that it was a normal name, not some douchebag name.

I will be sure to print these rules out and play in this manner for my 21st birthday. I'm sure I could do it now, seeing that I've played there before. But it def sounds like fun times.
