now the jacks i can understand calling or raising but everyone else calling with such marginal hands after 2 raises - i need a break to clear my head

[Swinebag]

which site?...what are the stakes?

[LongshanksED]

gala - $10


says it all really i suppose

i was tempted to fold and let the rest get on with it and should one have aces then so be it

hindsight being 20/20 - a few hands later i was dealt aces and got doubled back up by the villian

[Mikeyboy9361]

God, Donk fest or what!! I think fold and let "em get on with it, but actually doing it is a different matter

[LongshanksED]

for anyone keeping score im back upto 3k in chips and blinds at 75/150 so its not too bad at the moment

100 out of 200 and top 40 get paid so im right back in it

funnily the villian from earlier- after he doubled me up early on he hasnt played a hand since

[LongshanksED]

was thinking of folding as kings against 4 other opponents cant have a more than 50% chance of winning, even up against 2 others with Ax

[Mikeyboy9361]

Yeah my thoughts exactly. Keep going!

[LongshanksED]

7k now

unbelievably ive had aces 3 time now (and never been sucked out on) as well as kings at the start and queens just now

its funny how folk will put all their tourney life on K9, A8, 55 pre flop with 2 or 3 others in the pot while i"ve patiently folded AQ or AK

[LongshanksED]

and the donkeys return

10-10 i raise all in (6k)  from mid position  with 12 BB left and villain think call all his chips with A2 with 4k in his stack


ho hum

[LongshanksED]

[LongshanksED]

5th in chips now

got lucky when i shoved with 8BB left with A9 in mid position for AJ to look me up and the 9 on flop helped - i suppose variance does come into it now and again

[LongshanksED]

out in 17th place of 443 runners for $22 (was a $5 buy in - my mistake)

on the BB i have Q3 and its limp called to me

would anyone else make a move like callyocolony or pride1?

prides call is utter madness. Can cally be excused for trying to "steal" the 2k by moving all in..thus improving his stack by 25%?..not saying I would..but could he be excused, as only 1 limper before him?

[LongshanksED]

pride 1 was going all in with any ace everytime i was at his table and seemed to hit everytime

surrounded by clowns

[noble1]

hmmm looks like a free roll in the 1st post   against weak players try to see the flop cheap as it looks as if they are gonna pay you off with all sorts...

As most said with KK - fold it,and try to see cheap flops with these chumps...I"d even limp AA KK to trap against wallys like this ...
