Poker Game Outing

So yeah so after a long hiatus from our adventures, we had a pretty fun trip to a 5/5 blinds home game. Obviously being the luckboxes, we both made a bit of money although I swear that Munchu stole all of my luck for that night. I think my live cash game sucks so much I need to play more often to keep up with all these live players. Basically, I undertook the strategy of shutting off from mingling with the table by keeping my hoodie on much to the irk of Eddie who couldn't get a read on me all night. Well at least that was what he told me. And also the fools got to witness first hand for the first time in our short live poker career, a $400 river call with Ace High by none other than our dear "sick call" Eddie, which turned out to be the winning hand. Words simply cannot describe the sickness of that call. Hopefully there's gonna be more entries to come since Munchu's so free nowadays that he can afford to smash his keyboards for fun.

Re-opened

Just thought of re-opening this blog, where we will posting the stuff we do together in future.
So yeah, till next time. :)

People who go back on their word

Hello people.

Just here to update you on someone whom I thought was a nice person who kept his word.
But guess not. His name is Bud Lim. He's a triathlete and was from my former school RJ and RI.
We agreed to split our action during one of the games in past, and when he won and i lost, he didn't want to split the action going back on his word. In the end, I compromised, and he agreed to only cover my losses. But now he's even blocked me on MSN and not reply my sms-es at all in an attempt to not return me that sum of money. I'm utterly disappointed someone would throw away a friendship for just a couple of bucks.

So for those of you out there, watch out for this shady character, he could be selling you out next time for a small sum.

A day to be remembered..

We decided to do more tourneys which consisted of 2 more $24+2 45man, and a HU tourney.. It was hilarious.. I got knocked out early due to a donk re-shoving me with ATo when i raised with TT and he hit his A.. My MTTs also got beaten up pretty badly with sick beats.. But Jason managed to take down the HU.. He just slept till the next match-up, and got it over and done with within 10mins for the first few stages, but for the semis and finals, all it took was the first hand! Said he was meditating while he slept in between the matches LOL. Heres a rough recap of the hands..

Semis
Hole cards J4o
Jason raised to 90, Villain reraises to 270. After I reminded him that this guy was rather tight, Jason opts to calls.
Flop Jctc9d
Jason bets 180, Villain calls.
Turn 4c
Jason bets 540, Villain reraises all-in. Jason calls.
Villain shows KcKd.
River was a blank and thats that.

Finals

Hole Cards Js2s
Jason raises to 90, Villain called.

Flop 4s4c7s.

Jason bets 180, guy goes all-in.
Jason, "Eh, lets end this here." "One over card and a flush draw? Your call man I'm fine."
So Jason makes the call.
Villain shows 6s3s.
LOL we both started laughing.

Turn Qc
River Jd.

SHIP IT.

Army Life

To Jason: Get used to it and stop whining about army and I'll stop whining about my beats!

Sigh.
Lady luck is treating me so unkindly.
I can't take it anymore.
Once I'm well, I'm going to play live and scream at anyone who sucks out on me.
Cause they cant feel my anger online.
DIE YOU RIVER RATS!

This is interesting don't you think?

The duo are back

Well, the Sng god is back from Thailand and shared his experiences with me. Been a while since we last met up, went for a game at Andy's place, was rather interesting as we playing 7 handed, as we usually go to a full ring game. The host, Andy, was very gracious, providing loads of drinks on the house and not asking for any contributions at all. It's a very cosy setting, a table that can comfortably sit 7-8 people, has a green blanket which is really like felt, shall ask him where he bought it. Thought there's no aircon, there's 3 fans blowing at us so no problem there.

So we played 1/2 blinds for the night, played about 4hours only, but boy was there action. Andy's friend came slightly later, so we started off 6 handed, loads of preflop stealing, with Jason being a total irritant always stealing my blinds as he sat to my left. Let me go through one of the major pots i played.

I was UTG, i limped in, Jason folded, Danny folded, Aggro raised to 10, Andy called, SB, BB and I called.
I had TcTd.
Flop, 368, all hearts.
SB check
BB check
I check
Aggro check
Andy bets 75
SB and BB folds
Bao Ying folds out of turn while i was thinking.
I had about 335 left in front of me, Andy had about 370
Well, with a bet of 75, i was certain he didn't have a flush, so i pushed it all-in.
I was right, he showed 36, and thought about it for like 15mins before decidng to fold.
That 15mins seemed like the whole night to me man LOL.

Last hand of the night,
I was in the on the button, called Aggro's raise to 12 and was heads up.
I had JQo
Flop 3dTdks
Aggro bets 50
I call

Turn Jh
Aggro bets 100
I call

River Th
Aggro goes all-in for 160
I fold

Felt he was on a flush draw, but that all-in at the end kinda gave it away or i would've called. He repeated all-in 3 times (LOL) think he thought i didn't hear him or something but he was really confident so i figured he at least had a T at the end. After the game he revealed that he had a full house, T3. Well, at least Jason and I ended the night in the green. Of course Jason went on to nag that its so -EV to play live for him and felt that it was rather boring. Who can blame him right?

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The next day, Andy invited us to go back for another session, as expected Jason felt that it was -EV for him to only play one table at a time let alone to see this whole cards once every 10mins and stayed home to grind. So i went alone with CW and Daniel, my dear neighborhood mates whom I have met recently and have built quite a nice friendship with.

It was 6 handed, same guys -Jason, same blinds.
Let me share some memorable hands.

Hole cards AcKd

I was UTG, raised to 8
Daniel folds
Bao Ying calls
Dealer, Danny calls
SB, Andy folds
BB, CW raises to 32
I call
Bao Ying and Danny folds

Flop 9hJh4c
CW bets 50
I gave it a nice thought.
He had only 110 left.
But i was pretty sure he was holding the way hand or was drawing for a flush.
But i felt he was rather committed and might have called if he was on a draw.
Being the donkey I am, I gathered up the couraged and went all-in for about 160 more.
CW folded.
Whew :)



Another memoriable hand
I limped UTG with JdJh.
Bao Ying raised to 12
Andy calls
I raised to 42
Bao Ying moves all-in for about another 120 more.
Andy thinks for a while with his 33 and folds.
I only had about 90 left and called.

Bao Ying shows 9d9c
Flop was TcQc7s
Turn Jc (Boy was i sweating as the table counted his outs)

Flop 4d5dKs
I bet 40
Bao Ying raises to 90
