WPBT #7

I got home from 4 days of drinking and pokery goodness to an empty home. I had planned last week to meet the Family in Tampa, but the wife let me off the hook and said they were coming home early.

So what's a lonely boy to do? Make a huge plate of Nachos, flick on the tube and play some cards of course, not get some much needed rest OH NOOOO

I played a token and won fairly easily, so why not sign up for the WPBT#7. After I finally found the password (hint: more advertising might help) and found the tourney I almost decided not to play. HMM 13 players and double stack horse....whew.

Ahh fuck it, something to do during my HBO rotation. (I'm still trying to 'get' John From Cincinnati Jordan!)

So everything for the first hour and a half is fairly uneventful, I manage not to play too many cards and get a few chips. Then it began....I became a cardrack.

BEWARE! THE POST BELOW CONTAINS SOME OF THE MOST MIND NUMBING HAND HISTORIES AND ANALYSIS THAT YOU WILL EVER READ!

I'll go ahead and link everyone I can.

jeciimd
columbo
illinifan

archimedean

Shaubs


So nearly 2 hours into this thing we still have 2 tables...I get lucky lucky lucky with this hand.

Patchmaster wins the pot (19,200) with two pair, Queens and Nines


Sorry to take shots LJ but you kinda asked for it. I rarely, if ever, comment on anyones bad plays, 'cause I know it goes both ways. Players have reasons (excuses) to play whatever they think will win. Losing and winning to a bad beat is part of poker, and the best players know how to deal with each scenario.
