Not once, not twice, but thrice!!!
After months of toiling away through the 1c/2c tables I decided to move up and play some real poker. "Real poker?" I hear you ask Must be talking about 2c/5c, oh no higher than that. 5c/10c then, oh no, that’s not my style, I’m high rolling on the 10c/25c tables.
1st table went like this (bear in mind we’re talking Omaha so we expect a good donk out now and then) 3 people to the turn I’m holding trips, open ended straight draw and second to nuts Q high flush draw with the A on the board.
I push all in, it’s about $12-$13 into a $15 pot. BAM! Flush hits, K hi flush draw takes it down, oh well, what can you do?
Table #2 (bear in the mind the tiltometer has not had the appropriate time needed to settle down yet) I flop top pair with nut flush draw, I bet the flop K 8 6, Luckierthanhell calls with midlle pair, turn 5, I fire continuation bet, keep it low to see the river which is another 5. No flush so I fire the 3rd bet hoping my worthy adversary was on the flush draw but hey! Maybe my 2pr with A kicker is good anyway right?
Well no it wasn’t, my buddy hit runner runner to fill up. Goshdarn it! But it happens right?
I’ve had enough of the people on that table so I go to another one (basically the same people with different amounts of money) and my buddy from table #2 is there and he only has $1.50. Alright what could possibly go wrong?
Well…… I watched as he reloaded from $1.50 to $18. I’m sweating bullets as the BB slowly moves around to me and then, I’m in the game. My buddy calls the 25c SB folds I’m BB (check) Flop 4 4 6.
I glance at my cards 4 6 staring back at me. 2 people in the hand what are the odds!!! My buddy bets, I call. Turn a King. Well now then, I have one of them too, it just keeps getting better and better, my buddy checks and I throw out a ½ size pot bet. I get called. Looking good for me, river 8, he bets, I push and he shows his 2 6’s in the hole. "OH DEAR!!!!" Pokerstars has kicked me in the nuts again! Tiltometer spewing hot molten lava all over the place!!!
Do I stop there? Nah, not my style Table #4, now bear in mind that at this point I closely resemble a rabid shaven chimpanzee throwing my own excrement at the walls.
I get a pair of 8’s well worth a raise in my condition, I think it could well be the nuts!!! Guy next to me calls, $5 shortstack raises. Not a good sign but I make the donk call anyway, as does the guy next to me. Flop 8D QS 10D, I’m first to act. Bet $5 to take take care of the shortstacks A high flush draw and buy a little insurance for the heads up between me and my well stacked new buddy (that didn’t sound right) Turn 6D. I check and the guy next to me bets pot. I am spitting fire. "F%^% Pokerstars and all the crooked barstewards associated with it." I call and River a 6 Guy next to me had a 9hi flush and called the initial bet with pure junk so I did apologize for my donk play but I don’t feel too sorry for him. Shortstack had AA great big surprise there. He took the donk out quite well, much more class than myself!
See you on the 1c/2c tables, and I’ll see my 10c/25c buddies sometime in March/April/June (ish)
Did I forget to mention that Pokerstars is rigged? Because it is you know, really, no seriously. <--(just in case kingmotan wasn't aware of it)
