I was at the table at Imperial Palace that night. First hand he played he declared he was "going all in blind" (after looking at his cards, so sneaky.. lol), I had kings and called him. He flipped AK spades and spiked an ace on the river. He was mostly just obnoxious drunk and upsetting the fish at the table. He didn't last too long because he couldn't stop swearing.He wasn't nearly as drunk as the guy I saw at Binion's a couple nights later. His buddy was playing and he sat down beside him in an empty seat. Knuckles all busted up from a fight earlier that night and he could barely keep his head off the felt. He ended up passing out and puking on the floor before security arrived to take him away. Good times...4AM July 2nd.

Was this at the beginning of July this year?our esteemed mod, Zach, doesn't remember doing anything wrong at the Imperial Palace, but still got thrown out of the game and escorted off the premises by a legion of security members -
Yeah gotta fold this. Multiway non-nut draws are good, but not when the pot will be 3 way and you're likely drawing dead on both draws.Also, the J's as blockers aren't that great, if you had 99 it would be a much better play.

FYP.Raising 84o p-flop makes me want to sit down beside you and catch some of the money you are spewing -
What's with the villain's 1.5x pot bet on the flop? This looks a lot like a draw to me, something like QcTc/KcQc
-
Bad players would stop playing if they never got lucky. Embrace the fact that sometimes they hit their runner runner draws, because that will make them want to keep playing.
-
I'd play it fast. You pretty much have the nuts unless he hits one of his pocket pairs.

I can't even read those card icons on my 19" CRT monitor with 1600x1200 res

Yeah a rundown (even 7-high) is a nice hand. But a low pair plus a rundown with a hole at the top is trashMeh.I'm pretty LAG when it comes to preflop play in PLO. This I'd class almost as a premium hand compared to some hands I'd play, although I generally play more 6max cash than shortstacked full ring tourrneys.Change the 7c to the 6c and I'm guaranteed not folding this hand.
-
Hands like this play absolutely awful out of position and (very likely) multiway.Meh, it's not a bad call if the table is generally bad, which I'd expect in an $8 tourney./shrug -
Fold pre. Also, BBFIDTS
-
BB is 2nd in chips and SB still has an M of almost 10...BB surely has a big hand here, pushing over an UTG raise (by the chip leader) and the SB push, although often that "big hand" will be AK.they are both short-stacked and could be moving with less of a hand than they would otherwise -
I'd fold it. Blinds are still pretty small compared to the stack sizes, so there's no need to gamble this here.
-
5 handed, 77 UTG = raise

From the little 1-2 NL I have played at my local casino, it seems a lot like 3-6 LHE but with variable sized (and much bigger) bets. Except that people will fold on the river to large bets after calling down with who knows what, instead of calling with busted draws/ace highs like they do in 3-6.I am seriously contemplating betting any time I have an above average piece of the board next time I play against some donk call stations..
-
Basically betting $21 to win $37 here 3-way. Not quite good enough odds with a flush draw here, especially since it's likely that one or both of them are also holding clubs in addition to whatever they have.
-
QFT. We need to raise, but any decent raise will make us push any flop anyways. Just push so you don't let him see a flop before calling off most of the rest of his chips.I hate the idea of calling OOP here, and any reraise puts in about 1/2 your stack. I shove here every time. -
Every night? Well then I will head there first. From the sounds of things it seemed like multiple casinos will spread it, but it hardly ever gets going (much like the 1-2 NL dealer's choice at my local B&M)...I told you damnit.1/2 at Venetian.Every night.And they comp you good. -
Thanks for the info guys. If I can't find any good 1-2 games I will shortstack ninja the 2-5 and see how it goes

I'm heading to Vegas tomorrow for a full week. I'll be staying on the strip at the Imperial Palace. Playing in the $1500 WSOP NL Hold'em tourny and looking for some low limit ($1-2 blinds) Pot-Limit Omaha cash games if I can find any. Anyone know of a casino that spreads PLO at this limit? I'm sure there are a number of $2-5 or $5-5 games, but those are a little big for my likes.
-
Fold preflop. As played, I don't mind a turn call. River you have the 2nd nuts behind only JT, what is there to post/think about? I'm assuming one of them hat JT for the turn nut gutshot and hit it. This is why playing hands like T6 go badly. You cannot make a single nut straight with T6, and most of your straights will be one card straights.
-
I can't see laying it down for 3k more. I don't think AA bets the flop that hard. I'm thinking he has AT or a weaker flush.

'BudBundy' date='Thursday, June 7th, 2007, 1:31 PM' post='1937367']wait a min you are the matt from crypto? say hi to chippy from me!Yep, that's me
'James D' date='Thursday, June 7th, 2007, 1:33 PM' post='1937371']lol.. this is so specific, and random.so, is this actually happening to you now?lol, yes it was. I put off writing this post until after it was all over (my life or tournament, whichever).'doox' date='Thursday, June 7th, 2007, 1:34 PM' post='1937373']Call someone who doesn't suck, and ask them to take over for me while I run to their house.Good idea, but all my friends that I would trust with my account are terrible.
This was my thought process afterwards. Chance of the fire alarm being a real fire ~20 to 1. Chance that spending an extra 45 minutes (if the building is actually burning) will cause bodily harm/death, maybe 200 to 1. So really a 4000-1 shot that this is a really, really, bad idea.EV of the tournament at this point... About $700 for me (with about 1/4 of the chips in play). Is my life/health worth more than $2.8 million (4000 x $700)? I didn't think soWell this is a basic burn-odds question. So if you are giving up first place you have to be sure that the fire will cause at least $1600 in damages to your domicile. Requires some quick calculations of the value of your possesions (e.g. which things are non-replaceable and therefore have more inherent value -- note that many body parts are replaceable for the right price). If your position in the tourney is declining as the fire damage increases you are in bad shape and should probably get out.
I definitely read it as a bluffhave you played with fire before? is it capable of making a big bluff? try staring it down and getting a read, then make your decision.
Indeed. Living just off campus means there was probably wireless internet floating around somewhere too...Thank god for laptops -
So here's the deal:You're playing in a $3,000 freeroll tournament with just 22 entrants. You've been playing about an hour, doing quite well, and are sitting on the biggest stack with 7 players left (11k with the average stack at 5k). Payouts are $1600 for first, $900 for second and $600 for third. Blinds are 200-400 with 50 ante and about to go up. You have a pretty good read on these mostly passive/weak-tight players and figure you have a great chance to take it down. With how passive everyone is being, it could well take another 45 minutes before it's all over.While you're in your apartment on the 26th floor playing this tournament, your building's fire alarm goes off. You take a second to think and realize that if you just sat out now, you most surely would not make the money. So my questions are: How long would you keep playing for? What would need to happen (ie, hearing sirens, smelling smoke, seeing fire..) before you decided to start the run down 25 flights of stairs?Edit: spelling skills are lacking
