**Poker Sunday 15th June**

[millbet]

3898th in focus after a couple of silly moves should have easily made the money
good luck those still in

[bluepennant]

3533rd for me gl too anyone left funny game tonight

[slapdash]

6460 chips at the first break (average is 5638 from a starting 5000).

I'm quite pleased with how I've played so far (if that isn't tempting fate too much). I decided before it started that I'd be outclassed but I wouldn't let myself get pushed around, and I've won quite a few pots by being aggressive without being sure I had the better hand.

Just as slap said

Were you an idiot? Not in my eyes. I definitely didn't have him on JJ or 1010, so you were only behind to a made straight or 2 higher clubs (I think), and I would have expected him to have re-raised pre-flop with the latter.

As I said before, he had been aggressive, and not always with cards, so I thought it was a fair shove. However, hindsight is always 20/20, so you're bound to now think you should have see it. Even then, you still had outs.

Good luck Gaz.

gone 2842th

My 99 was dominating the two all ins when the guy hit a 7 on the turn for trips, 4 hearts hit the board as well and didnt have one of those either

[GotaFancy?]

ul slap

You weren't dead in the water though - even if you thought there was a good chance he had QK (50% maximum?) you were 35% to hit FH or quads - no way you can get away from it IMO......

[GazBlades]

Unlucky Slapdash.

I'm out of Poker Utd in 21st. Short stacked and went all in with AJ suited, got called by AA. Got $535 back for it, and I've decided to use it to enter the Full Tilt 150 seat guaranteed tourney starting now.

That seems a long way of at the moment, at least the golfs keeping me awake.

Thanks guys. Feeling a bit sorry for myself at the moment. I don't think I've ever been so gutted by the result of a poker hand. The fact that I thought I'd been playing well until then makes it worse. In a way I'd feel better if somebody could convince me I'd played it badly (WASP? )

Anyway, enough self-pity ...

GOOOOOOOOOOOOO! GAZZZZZZZZZZ!

[Washman]

Good luck Gaz in both your games

I'm currently 30th out of 74 left in Mansion 20 seat GTD, could have been better but for everyone folding to my standard raises with AA two hands in a row

I think I'd have been very suspicious, and probably thought he had it. But I doubt I would have folded. In fact I know I wouldn't.
