Sunday Sunday Sunday, Well Really Monday Morning

Another Sunday. Another batch of online tournies. No cashes! I haven't cashed in ANYTHING this month. Luckily it's been a good one in the ring games. Nothing too spectacular as far as tourney bust out hands go. Just kept running into queens. JJ vs QQ twice and TT vs QQ once.

Some fun hands from my ring games tonight:

- I have JTo in the SB. 3 limpers, I call, BB checks. Flop AK5 and everyone checks. Turn Q, I check, a limper bets, gets one call, I raise, original bettor folds, caller calls. River 8, I bet, he raises, I make it $90, he caps, I call. He has Q8. Third and fourth pair. AKA "the nuts."

- I have JJ. EP raises, I 3-bet, both blinds and the raiser call. Flop Kh 8c 4h. Blinds check, EP bets, I raise, BB calls, EP calls. Turn 3c, they check, I bet, they call. River Jc. They check, I bet, BB raises, EP folds, I 3-bet (probably a mistake), BB caps. He has.....drumroll please...6c2c! Wow! Nice flop for that hand, especially when it's two bets to you, buddy!

- I have AKo UTG. I raise, MP cold-calls, SB folds, BB three-bets, I cap, MP calls. Flop AKT. BB bets, I raise, MP folds, BB 3-bets, I call. Turn K. BB bets, I raise, BB calls. River A, BB checks, I bet, BB calls. He has JJ. Ha Ha. Name one hand he can beat on the river. T9?! Maybe he was hoping I had the other two jacks? Sick.

HUGE improvement on the hand histories - keep it this way. Much more compelling and MUCH easier to read.

Thanks for letting me know! A couple of other people have said the same thing so I will keep doing it this way until Eurobet cleans their histories up.

Hey Chris,

This is Eric's friend...I'm too lazy to go through and sign up for a full account at this moment.

Very, very entertaining hands. I love those people who think that once they hit two-pair, any two-pair, they're automatically good and should cap it all the way.

I've got a question for you: you say you play on Eurobet. How did you get an account there? I was under the impression they didn't allow US customers. Also, did you get a good rakeback deal? If you don't want to answer here, please just email me, poker_wannabe@yahoo.com.

Hope your tournament luck turns around.

Sorry the LJ syndication feed is broken. I didn't set it up so I don't know how to fix it.
