When the chipleader is a donkey.....

Was bored one night and decided to have a little fun in the 180 players $4.40 sng just before turing in for the night. Decided to just keep pushing all-in with semi-decent hands while playing 4 turbo sngs and reading some stuff on the net.. and somehow i managed to reach the final table, got screwed with JJ went down to about 15BB, and 3 handed, with the chipleader having about a 3:1 chiplead.. and so i doubled up pushing all in with K7o and got called by K5o, then came the moment where the other two tangled up, leaving me in 2nd place and 1:4 against the chipleader.
Then came this hand.................

Well, i dont know what that idiot was thinking but yeah he was willing to gamble wasnt he.. Nonetheless, HE'S A FUCKING MORON!!!!
Sigh, i just cant get through a day without one of these beats..

Firstly, let me apologise to Jason for my suckout and let you guys know what exactly happened..
It's folded round to me and I'm on the button, i raise it to 6X BB with AKo, SB folds.
Jason on the BB starts voicing out...
"I know what you have... Could be a flip but I'm willing to gamble.. "
Then he pushes all-in for about $30 more..
I sat and thought about it for a while and called, i mean what the hell right since HE wanted to gamble.
He turns over 33, and i show my AK.
Flop comes 37K.
Jason, "I'm sorry man."
I remain silent.
The turn is a K.
"PAIR THE BOARD!!!!!!"
Jason, still waiting to collect his chips.
River brings a 7 for a board of 37KK7.
Kings full over 3s full.
Jason looks to the heavens and walks back into the room to grind.

I shall not post the ugly victory abuses i shouted out in excitment, but hell, it was the best suckout I've ever made. :)

Mr M is a Luckbox


Damned I just got runner runner by Mr M when I was a 11.5 to 1 favourite on the flop. What a donkey, you are a fool. Furthermore he charges me USD100 a day for staying over at his place for grinding. What a miser, you are so stingy. Ok now I feel better.

Encounter with a Super Duper Fish

There was this new guy who came to our home game a few weeks ago, let's call him Kenny. Being a new player, we did not really know much about him. But two hands played with him left a really deep impression on me. The blinds were $0.50/$1

First hand of the night, I'm dealt pockets Jacks and there were four limpers prior to my turn to act. I raised it to $7.50 and Kenny in the Big Blind instant calls, the rest of the limpers promptly folded. The flop cam J45 rainbow. Kenny checks to me, I bet out for $10 which was about 2/3 of the pot, Kenny instant calls again. On the turn came an 8, this time around Kenny fires $1 into the $25 ++ pot, I raised to $10 and he instant calls again. I started fearing that he had the 76. River came a brick and Kenny fired out another suspicious $1 bet, I raised it to $12 and Kenny snap calls me, guess what he turns over. (See Below)

Second hand that we cross swords. I'm dealty KQ suited on the button, again there were a few limpers before I acted, one of them which included Kenny. I raised to $10 to play, Kenny and another limper called. Flop came 884. Kenny checks, other guy checks, fearing someone was slow playing I checked instead of firing on air. Turn dropped a 2. Kenny fires $1 again, other guy called, I called just because it was a $1 bet. River came a 7, again Kenny fires $1, the other guy folded and I called because it was $1 in a $30 pot, guess what does Kenny flipped. (See Below)

After that night, I never saw Kenny anymore. Oh words can't describe how badly I missed him. Ok enough of sprouting nonsense, now back to the tables.

Macau After Chinese New Year


The degenerates are planning a trip to Macau to pawn the drunk uncles and aunties who always chase their draw at humongous bad odds. The date would the week immediately after the end of the FTOPS as we would be playing in some of the events. Interested people feel free to contact us to make arrangements for the trip.

Hello All

This will be the site where us denegerates will post about the happenings of our games both online and live as well as a whole lot bunch of crap. So stay tune, hopefully it would be really interesting.

Weekly Friday Night Game

So we finally reach the place after taking a nice long 20min walk to the place, I realise that we have a new face at the table. I'll post a picture of him next time. I have no idea what he was doing there, but i realize he was new to the game. Well, it got pretty clear soon after he started. He called raises after raises with absolutely nothing all the way even AFTER the river, and even wanted to call me after i went all-in, with one more caller before him on a board of A8598 when he had a 5 pair thinking i was bluffing. All i have to say is, WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING HERE MAN?!
Alright, got that off my chest and now back to tables.
