Was going to say I had your table open & you seemed to be doing well, but didn't want to jinx anything.

Thanks, hope you can hit a miracle of your own to stay alive.

46754 at the 2nd break. Had pocket Kings twice in about 4 hands, got it all in pre-flop both times, flopped an unnecessary set both times.First time there was an all-in from EP, caller ahead of me, I pushed & the caller called with pocket 9s, the EP all-in had Q something sooted.Second time was a raise from the caller in the first hand, I pushed, he called with AQ (offsuit I think), & he busted out.Most donkinsh play was pushing with Q10 suited on the button with a VERY short stack, getting called by AK & hitting a pair (not 100% sure which card I paired)

5652 at the break.Would've been around 9k, but got Farha'ed with Aces. UTG called the $100, I made it $400, folded around to him & he calls.He had 3s, hit the 2 outer on the flop & I donkishly put it all in on the turn.

This particular donkeyish play I figured with a 3000 chip stack, it was worth the $100 to see the flop heads-up & see what happened.If I didn't hit the flop as hard as I did, I was gone.

Anybody else playing?Doubled up on the first hand when I called a raise in the BB with J-8 offsuit (was folded around to me, so thought I'd take a chance & see the flop). Two 8s and a deuce on the flop, check check. Turn is a King, I bet out, he raises, I reraise, he pushes, I call. He turns over Ace-Queen offsuit, I turn over my trips, & he's off to the rail.I assumed he had at best 2 pair, didn't think he'd slowplay pocket Kings on the flop, didn't think he'd have just Ace-high going all in.

Lost a big pot when I slowplayed trip Aces on the flop.Checked ahead of me, I check, button who min-raised pre-flop bets about half his stack. Considered putting him all-in, but figure he'll put the rest in on the turn.Turn gets checked around, river is a Q, guy ahead of me goes all-in, I re-raise since the other guy doesn't have much more than the first guy, he calls & turns over QQ for the boat.

Donked a bit of it off when I got moved to a new table.Raised it up with the first hand I was dealt (figure they'd think I HAVE to have a decent hand), flopped bottom pair & bet out about half the pot.Guy behind me raises it up, somebody else reraises HIM, so I let it go.He had 10-8 diamonds, & flopped the nut straight.Haven't been in many pots since then.

Doubled up early. KQ around the CO, raised in to 160 (blinds 20/40), 2 limpers that were already in the pot call.Flop 6QT rainbow, guy ahead of me bets out small, I raise to the size of the pot, he pushes, I call, he turns over J10 off for middle pair & I double up.

& I'm out.My pushes hadn't been getting called, even showed AK & QQ when I got no callers.Pushed with Q-10 late, reraise behind me, no callers, he turns over 1010 & takes down the pot to knock me out when I don't hit the 3 outer.Hopefully I'll do better in the 40K

I'm in, MikeRH68, table 217

Got hurt by a donk at my last table.4 to the nut flush on the flop, checked to me in late position, bet half the pot, jackass pushes with top pair (Jacks) & no kicker, & of course I miss the flush.Then my last hand on the table he limps in EP, another limper follows in MP, I've got Queens & push since I figure the donkey will call with a lesser hand. Which he does, & turns over pocket SEVENS! But of course, he catches a 7 on the flop & I'm off to a new table with significantly less chips than I should have. :icon_cry:It's times like that I wish Party had observer chat on

Doubled up with trip 9s vs the nut flush draw.Got it all in on the turn, he missed his draw.

Unfortunately it's not to be this time. Been doing OK in the Party guarantees the last few nights, made the money in 2 out of 3, but not the REAL money, just the buy-in & change money.

Stayin' alive, stayin' alive! Pushed a few times with some decent hands, but didn't get called.M is still TERRIBLE, but have at least made 140th place money. :icon_dance:Fortunately everbody else's sucks too, so they'd have to commit about half their stack or more to call my push.& I'm out.Pushed with KQ vs an early position limper, who called with Ace-rag & neither of us improved.Think I got mocked on my way out, obviously nobody at the table has read Harrington.

Good news/bad news.Made the money, but got moved to a new table right after that. So don't have any stats on any of the players at my new table.Given that the blinds are going up & my M will be around 5, getting close to push & pray time anyway, so probably not THAT big of a deal.

Sucks that after the 2nd break, the average stack has an M under 10.

Anybody else lose connection?Anything else on the internet is fine for me, but Party can't connect. :icon_cry:Edit:Nevermind, by the time I hit send it'd connected.Pushed on the button with AQ first hand after it reconnected, got called by the tightest player at the table with A2 offsuit, flopped a queen & knocked her out. Up to 14903.

Did a bit better than double up when I hit a set of 3s on a 3 :icon_suit_diamond: 2 :icon_suit_spade: A :icon_suit_diamond: board, got called by A-Q offsuit. :icon_dance:At 11880

4740 at the first break.Nothing major, but won a few decent pots.

I'm in.Need a few more players so we don't get eaten up by the rake.

Sorry, I had Daniel's table open & was starting to feel bad that my table was playing, you know, REAL poker. So thought I'd take advantage of the fact that I could rebuy, then as I started to build a bigger stack, figured I'd abuse it.

WooHoo! 4th at the break, 1 ahead of a certain person in 5th. Didn't rebuy, but did kind of donk it up the last half hour of the rebuy period & made some sick catches, but nothing like somebody who flopped trip 6s.

Having your own poker site is rigged.
