I lost a chunk with AA last night at DTD.  Not really bad beat story, just didn"t get the rub of the green last night as can happen.

I raise it up to £7 (two limpers already in the pot at .5/£1 table) - obviously get 6 callers.

Flop comes KT5 (two hearts). 

When it comes round to me I bet £30 (with about £120 behind).  A larger stack at the table then re-raises another £65.  I"m thinking that I"m either shoving or folding here, and decide that I"m behind and fold.

He shows T5o.

The same player later felted me.

I have  kd  jd on a  kh  jh flop.  Two other players in the hand.

First player leads out with a £25 bet into a pot of £12.  He"s been betting with nothing, and so I come over the top for my stack of £70. 

The other player (with a large stack) flat calls, and the original bettor calls.

They have  th and  js .

Turn is  :: and the river means the flush beats my two pair.  I think I should have maybe flat called on the flop and then pushed on a non-heart turn, but nevermind.

Going back over there tonight, so hopefully I"ll have some more luck.

This could sound very stupid, and I"m thinking your being "sarky"..but want to check in case I"m missing something..!!!

Why is it "obvious your getting 6 callers?!...Are you being Sarky...is DTD a loose cash game...or am i missing something!?

I would say thats what he is trying to say..  

[kinboshi]

Yes, sorry.  I was being sarky. 

Fortunately, the players were the same on Saturday night, and the cards were kinder to me.  Managed to show a decent profit over the weekend.

:: being the hand that won me the most...

One small point to remember -- no matter how great your triumphs or how tragic your beats nearly all of the aproximately 6 billion misfortunes on this earth couldn"t care less
