Was hoping to join George tonight as a winner but have just gone out 14/5553 in the PLO 6-max to a guy calling a 1.1 million pre-flop 3-bet with K-8-5-4 ds and hitting an 8-5-7 flop. For me, that was an easy fold yet for the 3rd time in the final hour, an awful call hits.  I know we all make em at times, but when it happens when so deep it hurts all the more.


UL Brian. U played great. Was fun sharing a table.

I"m playing it - was loving it until just now when I lost a > 19,000 coinflip

Had QQ other player decided the best thing to do when holding AKos and a 5xbb bet pre was to reraise all in with 91 blinds :O

Still in and with plenty of chips - but that did make me sad

I played Event 97 ($11 NLHE SundayStorm Special Edition)

Managed a min-cash of $22.

Got a lot of abuse early on for 4 betting KK. Yes, I was up against AA and yes, I did hit a K on the flop!

However, my luck was reversed a couple of times when:

AK v JQ lost to a rivered straight (Put opponent all-in on the flop: AJx)
QQ v 99 lost to a 9 high flop (AIPF)

Eventually I shoved AIPF with A9 v KJ, K on the turn.

Well bugger that.

Flopped top pair in level 1. Flopped a flush in level 9. KK stayed an overpair for small pots twice in between. That"s all in 3 hours.

Eventually busto"d jamming 20BB with 99, bigger stack snaps off with AK, irrelevant shortie calls with TT. Ace flops.

Can"t win these tournaments without hitting!
