Said i would do an update on
Manchester so here it is...
Got there pretty early and the main event was in f
ull swing lucky we bought in day before as the side event was sold out as we walked in . It was capped at 60 with about three million alternates.
Got sat down and liked the look of my table had a tight player on my right which i knew and 3 tight players on my left the fishy types
where sat in the middle altogether.
First level went well manages to get up 7.5k from a starting stack of 5k.
Just got to the end of the second level and this hand came up .
Chinese guy limps
utg (fish) tight player limps I raise to 400 with 88 rest of table folds
bb calls(fish),
Chinese guy calls tight player folds. Pot stands at 1400 (i think). They check to me and i bet 1200 on a flop of 754 rainbow. BB which I have had a bit of history with tanks for ages and
doesn't know what to do with his hand. This is where the
Chinese fella learns his lesson.
The
Chinese guy is waiting to fold his hand as twitchy the
bb is taking forever and
Mr china looks like he has no further interest in the pot. Twitchy the
bb says out loud I know you
haven't hit that flop and mucks his cards. Mr china then looks at twitchy and decides that he is going to take me off the pot. He counts how much i have left and raises to 3600. He should of listening to himself instead of twitchy in the
bb who
hadn't the balls to do that himself.
Unfortunately for the
Chinese I know I'm ahead and
instantly move in for all my stack which is about 4800 more. The
chinese guy now feels committed and calls for the other 1200 or so.
The
chinese guy turns over a4 off and twitchy says oh i folded a 4 which i was very happy to hear.
So lesson learnt for
chinese man 1. never listen to crazy white man with a twitch. Lesson 2. never underestimate crazy
Irish mans reading ability at the poker table. Lesson 3. Remember the luck of the Irish is no match for the luck of the
Chinese.
A
king on the turn and the case 4 on the river sent me flying to the rail. Yes i was out of there.
The last thing I got from the comp was the lip reading
session that went on for a few minutes afterwards from the remaining players at the table....
As for today played a total of 5 sit n gos online. Bubbled in the first one got all in with
qq vs 55 for the fives to trip up,
allin when 12
bb's remaining with
ak vs
aq for other to spike a queen,
re raised all in on a rainbow flop with trip 4's to get called by
qq which hit runner runner hearts to take me out again and
all in pre with
kk when i hand 16
bb's and got four yes four callers for the a8 suited to catch a straight on the river.... So its pretty clear that lady luck has fucked me off at the minute but no
doubt she will be back soon.....
Good news qualified for the super
satellite tomorrow for the
Asian poker tour which is paying 4 seats and to be honest I'm feeling pretty good about my chances. Only 28 qualifiers in it so far wit a bit of luck it
shouldn't make more than 40 runners and i will be giving it my best shot....
