A mere 92% of the field made the 2nd break. I am now down to 3.5 from the 5k starting stack so need to win a couple of pots.

Plodding on with 8.8k at the mo...

I dream of 8.8k. When I have the high made Badugi and bet it strong someone keeps getting there with their middling draw. Or else someone else is standing pat and I have to break the Badugi to try to draw smaller or just fold - usually fold. When I have A23, I pay a fortune and miss. It"s not going well.

Bye bye 8.8k....cracking self bok!!

[AceOnTheRiver]

That was a good hour. I now have 12k.

Must"ve been dealt Badugi 4 times i that sesh including 7-high, although had at least 4 flushes also (at least they keep you out of trouble).

Comedy hand when 5 limped on my BB. My hand was so bad I drew three....... to a 9 high Badugi  

Poor old shorty found his spot against me - we went heads up and stood pat for all three draws for his remaining stack.

Him - Q-T-8-2
Me - Q-T-7-A

[AceOnTheRiver]

meh

down to 7k - just lost a 15k pot 8-h vs 6-h... had too much in there to let go.

Need another hot session please

[MintTrav]

The dream is over.

Next dream on the way.

[AceOnTheRiver]

Still hanging on on 11k, have reached the giddy heights of 19k but now on < half the avg stack.

Cover me I"m going in.


JB lurking somewhere on a similar stack also

[AceOnTheRiver]

Sigh 443/2303 for nowt  

1st hand back I get 3 cards to a 5-high badugi, and play in strong and miss that diamond on all three draws. My oppo is chip daddy on the table draws 2 on 1st & 2nd, hitting 9 high

Oh Well - Stud on Weds next for me

JB still lurking but very short - GL to him

[MintTrav]

I see a well-known UK player won 2-M.

Anybody playing in tonights Heads-up or the No-Limit... I got knocked out against my first opponent in the HU..

[MintTrav]

Despite saying I wasn"t planning to play HE, I"m in both M & L (crawled into the M via sat).

11k in L, 5k in M at 1st break - wish it was the other way round.

played in the the HU  L  came 1631/16384 (round 4) for a min cash which is not bad as it"s the only one i"ve played this year.

11k in L, 5k in M at 1st break - wish it was the other way round.

Got my wish, kind of - 6.6k in M, 2k in L.

I hate sets - such a sneaky horrible underhand hand - should be banned from Holdem.

[WYoung83]

in the $11. slow so far,

[WYoung83]

BTW anyone else see that Isildur1 won 2 scoop events. After wining the PCA highroller recently also. Guy is a sicko, not just good a cash games.

[MintTrav]

Just me on the night-shift, from the looks of it.

Long gone from the L. QQ v AA took half my stack; then KQ v 44 on Qx4 flop did most of the rest.

Still hanging in the M. Lost most of it with KT. Raised MP, called by BB. Flop Kxx; he check-raised all-in with 33, I called; 3 on river. Down to 856, when BB was 250. Chips have been in a few times since - got a quadruple-up to 4.4k at one point, then slid again. Held when called and restole a couple with my life on the line. 9k now - 1160/1384. 765 get paid, so prob still not gonna get that far.
