Steve's Ramblings

WWdN Tuesday Game

I'm going to try to live blog here... this ought to be interesting.

7:30 - I'm at Table 1, seat 8, but don't recognize any of the names. 99 people tonight. 7:32 - I stopped playing at FullTilt to concentrate. I was seriously card dead at 25/50 but did OK at razz. I'm working off a 200 point bonus there. It is going to take awhile. 7:34 - First player out. wwonka joined our table 7:37 - my first pot! yippee! 7:38 - second pot! yippee! 7:51 - wwonka is out 93rd. Two pair to a flush. Next hand I crossed over 2k in chips. Good for top 20 at the moment. 7:55 - Columbo777 joined our table- as one of the chip leaders. He is on my left. In fact I have two chip leaders immediatly to my left. Joy. 8:04 - Just lost a fairly decent chunk of chips to Columbo777. Grrrr... Out of the top 20 for now. 8:07 - 2nd kill at our table. 8:08 - Lost *another* chunk to Columbo777 when he reraised me both preflop and on the flop when I hit 2nd pair. Possition sucks. 8:11 - Phluxer raises all in over BigSlickNut's raise. BSN folds 8:12 - Decker711 is all in and all out (79th). I would have won. Grrrr... 8:13 - Phluxer is at it again. This time with InanimateJ. He gets the win and shows the bluff. 8:16 - Apparently Wil is out. 8:16 - Phluxer is all in and called by Columbo777. 99 v KK, 9 on the flop and Columbo is hurt 8:18 - Longshot1999 is out. All in w/ A9 against AQ - I am moved to table 4. I recognize no one. 8:19 - Wait, Sweet79Chuck is at my table. He is blogging. 8:20 - Smalldog is out when his nut flush draw doesn't get there. Kaellinn18 is a chip leader- on my left, imagine that. 8:28 - It seems the game has tightened up a lot. I have dumped a bunch of AXo because of low chip stack. I am well below average. 8:30 - We are on break. I am 49 of 64 remaining. and almost a thousand chips shy of average. 8:35 - Blinds are 75/150. I am at < 10BB. Ouch. 8:40 - Columbo777 is back at my table. SoxLover is out 59th. 8:42 - Doubled up with my AA against Kaellinn18's 82o. huh? I am back to just shy of average stack. 8:44 - DavidK is out. when his 88 runs into SERNE's TT. SERNE has to be high on the leader board 8:45 - Sweet79Chuck is all in against thebrux and looses AQ to AK He is done in 54th. 8:48 - I'm out 50th. I reraised all-in with QQ to be called by SERNE with KK. He flopped quads. Ouch.

And that my friends is poker in a nut shell.

Good night everyone.
