Seems like every time I do this with jacks I end up against a top pocket pair.

Pei Wei is a little less expensive, but I can't really tell a difference taste wise. Get the lettuce wraps and orange peel chicken.

7/20/2008 4:09:37 PM

lettuce wraps FTW!

The guy was in late position so I put him on a wide range. Note the other hand where I laid JJ down vs two overpairs.

7/20/2008 4:26:39 PM

yeah...after a raise and a reraise that was a solid lay down. Now every time I hear "wide range" I think about the badger commercial.

This has to be one of the worst late tournament average stack play I have seen in a very long time.

I believe you, but in some of the MTTs I've participated in at those levels or slightly lower, the players are still fucking retarded and if you're not getting decent hands pretty consistently you're pretty fucked...

Need some thoughts on this play. My thinking: 3x'd PF to hopefully get played back at by a short stack pushing, or a decent pair. Flop bet-preferred not to get called, but expected to be by any OP (ideally). I put him on a mid pair (higher than 5's obviously) or something along the lines of AQ or AJ....

I ended up fighting back and made the final table, but made somewhat of a bad play at the chip leader and finished 9th (not what I was hoping for after 3 hrs of solid play).

While I'm at it, figured I'd get some input on this too:
CL had raised my BB from the SB 4 times in a row, and I folded each time, figured I'd defend and possibly set up a play at him. On the flop, I thought he was just c-betting and trying to push me around with perhaps 2 overs, but turned out not to be the case.

If your going to "defend the blinds" re-pop AI there, your stack sizing gives plenty of fold equity to the move...

With 7BB what are you doing after your open limp if someone raises?

That's a push or fold given table dynamics...

theres no explanation for what i did there. i could try to come up with one, but like i said, i have just lost it the last few days...

This NISHM character is a huge dumbass. He raises minimum before flop every time and then he raises again every time he gets a chance but he was getting so lucky it was impossible to put him on anything. He was literally playing shit like 3-6 and winning EVERY SINGLE TIME. It was pissing everyone at the table off to no end. That's why this felt so good.

Cross you fingers..

I just tried to take out the minimum $250 with full tilt's new cash moneygram thingy. I "withdrew" at 9:13am....hopefully i'll get a confirmation today and get the money today....hopefully...

7/22/2008 11:59:02 AM

Can you deposit with a VISA check card on stars? I wouldn't mind getting the $240 reload bonus they have now but I thought I remembered my bank(bb&t) rejecting such a transaction back in the day.

Apparently you can deposit through a moneygram agent but there's a $10 fee

7/22/2008 4:25:23 PM

Probably worth it for $240.

7/22/2008 4:28:17 PM

^^I wasn't able to with my visa check card (wachovia). I used the instant e-checks and that worked fine.
BTW, whats up with this bonus anyway? I haven't looked at it, but is it just a 40% reload bonus up to $240? Can you not just withdraw your BR then re-deposit it for the bonus?

7/22/2008 4:39:55 PM

I think last time I tried that way back when with Party it wouldn't let me reload with a pending withdrawal, but that didn't stop me from making a reload and then doing a withdrawal right afterwards.

The 20x clearance rate is going to be a big problem for those at microlimits, but hey it's free money as long as you dont go busto trying to get it. Stars makes you wait 48 hours to withdrawl after a deposit but as far as I know there's nothing to keep you from doing it the other way around to get the bonus.

Make that 4 times I've been busted on QQ. Flopped a set after a hefty re-raise which was dipshit called with A7s and he hit his flush on the river after going all in on a draw (he was short stacked as fuck, it was a value call anyway)
