  1. One BAD MOTHA SHUT YO MOUTHIvey Messing AroundPhil Ivey raises from the button to 40k and both Kirill Gerasimov and Sam Farha make the call. The flop is K96 and Ivey bets 20k. Farha makes the call. The turn is the J. Ivey bets 40k and Farha folds. While scooping the pot, Ivey show 2-2-2 in his hand face up on the table.
    hahaha that is sooo clowning, I love it.
  2. Ivey is grindin...finally a player I'm rooting for's stack rises on updates instead of dwindling. Take this down.Edit:Ivey Taking Back ControlPhil Ivey is now up to $325,000 in chips and he has taken most of those chips from Kirill Gerasimov who is now down to $300,000. Sam Farha Scoops From Kirill GerasimovSam Farha raises to 40k from the small blind. Kirill Gerasimov makes the call from the big blind. The flop comes Kheart3club6diamond. Farha bets out 20k and Gerasimov calls. The turn is the 2diamond and Farha bets out 40k and once again Gerasimov calls. The river brings the 9club and Farha leads out again for 40k. Gerasimov calls and mucks his hand when Farha shows 4spade5spade6club9club for the six high straight and 4-5 low. After the hand, Gerasimov is down to $150,000 in chips and Farha increases his stack to $860,000.

  3. Phil Hellmuth Rakes a PotPhil Hellmuth raises to $55,000 from the button and Jeff Cabanillas calls. The flop comes 9heart8diamond3heart, Hellmuth bets $45,000 and Cabanillas calls. The turn is the 7diamond and Cabanillas fires $100,000 and Hellmuth calls. The river is the 3heart, Hellmuth bets $440,000 and Cabanillas mucks his hand. Chip counts don't look to be updated yet

  4. I seem to have that one blow up ever few days that costs me a buy in at 6 Max NL. I usually play my A game when I've been at a table for quite a bit and have a good idea of the texture and who to play back at. Yet I continue to have those little brain farts where I sit down at a new table and go broke with TPTK without any reads and the villian min-raises a non threating turn card. Instead of waiting for a better spot when I have a good idea where I stand...I put the blinders on, become a donkey, and push back. Yes I'm an idiot.

  5. I know it's quite low limit, but playing against short stacks in low buy in NL seems like a leaky part of my game at times.I'd been at the table for a bit and had some notes on Villian...he was usually extremely passive and called down with a ton of quetionable hands. Over the past 15 or so hands I'd raised his BB from the SB three times and he either moved in PF or after I CB'd the flop.Party Poker No-Limit Hold'em, $.25 BB (4 handed) Hand History Converter Tool from FlopTurnRiver.com (Format: FCP)Button ($12.38)Hero ($40.71)BB ($10.15)UTG ($9.95)Preflop: Hero is SB with 5 :club: , A :) . Hero posts a blind of $0.10. 2 folds, Hero (poster) raises to $0.65, BB calls $0.50.Flop: ($1.50) A :D , T :) , 2 :)(2 players)Hero bets $1.25, BB raises to $2.5, Hero calls $1.25.Turn: ($6.50) 6 :D(2 players)Hero checks, BB bets $2.89, Hero calls $2.89.River: ($12.28) Q :D(2 players)Hero checks, Hero calls $4.01.Final Pot: $16.29My feeling was that he'd reraise me on the flop with any piece and if I just called the raise he'd move in on the later streets with weaker hands than he would call a flop push.

  6. Chaulk me up in the just call PF catagory...with no reads or idea on the makeup of the table I definitely can't see the point in building a huge pot. I don't want to be involved in a pot that size with a vulnerable hand like JJ, with no idea on the range villian opens with...especially 7.5x the BB. Even though live NL opening raises tend to be larger than typical online, it's rare that someone opening that large would lay down to a re-raise. The re-raise also commits hero to CB the flop pretty much no matter what comes out, whereas smooth calling makes getting to showdown on a Q 10 10 board much cheaper. I'd just rather play the hand a little weaker and fold to a fair bit of action on the flop/turn or check behind on the flop and see what villian does on the turn and reassess.
