August 24, 20214 yr Play over 2 hours with six people. Over a dozen all ins and the short stack wins every single one. I win a few pots and am chip leader for a few minutes. Get AA34 double suited 3 times in 5 hands, get scooped every time. Out in 6th.
August 24, 20214 yr Author Andrew Neeme's after action report from TCH Austin... if you dont want to watch the whole thing, just watch the hand that begins at 7:15, and the hand that begins at 11:10 @TXSooner518 would be so proud....
August 26, 20214 yr Satellite into $1500 this weekend400/800/800Folds to BTN (40k) who opens 3100. SB folds. I jam 8300 w 66. He tank calls w 4c2cAQTKJNext hand he takes me out TT>KJ
August 27, 20214 yr $2/2 w $550UTG and MP limp. BTN makes it $17. SB folds. I make it $50 w AsAd. Only BTN ($450 behind) calls.Tc7c6c. I lead out $75 on a super draw heavy board. He raises it to $225.Shove, call, fold?
August 27, 20214 yr 50ish Asian dude, reg. He’s competent, perhaps a bit splashy but I’ve not ever seen him grossly out of line. It’s a made hand or a strong draw, not air
August 27, 20214 yr That'd be a hell of a bluff. If he's bluffing, he probably has the A of clubs. But that bet to me looks like he's trying to stack you. Edited August 27, 20214 yr by Bookman
August 27, 20214 yr 50ish Asian dude, reg. He’s competent, perhaps a bit splashy but I’ve not ever seen him grossly out of line. It’s a made hand or a strong draw, not airCry and fold IMO.
August 27, 20214 yr Next orbit I open UTG1 to $15 w 3h3d. 3 callers. $60 pot8s 5s 3cCheck to me. I make it $20. Different, younger Asian reg makes it $65. Folds to me and I go $150. He jams his $200 and has my $150 covered.Call and cry.88I saved some nice coin winning the satellite entry. I gave it all back in about an hour of cash.
August 27, 20214 yr Yeah the problem on the AA hand is we are virtually never way ahead bc he will have a club basically every time he doesn’t already have us beat. I assume if he wants to go to war with like QQ no club there he would also 4b it pre. If we have Ac obv we have to roll with it. The 33 hand is vile and disgusting and dumb.

August 27, 20214 yr WSOP requiring proof of vax to register, period. https://www.wsop.com/2021/ Luckily for my investors, they have a horse who understands basic math, probability, and percentages, so this doesn't affect me at all, other than making the tournaments harder because they are filtering out the people who don't.
August 27, 20214 yr LolLiving in FL, players just LOVE to talk about how they’re not getting the shot. I can’t help but target them, much like I would anyone who requests a wash or tells us that T8 is their favorite hand.I’ve not booked a trip to WSOP because I’m not sure it’s going to happen. Last I heard they are crazy short their dealer counts, though perhaps this new rule will make that less an issue
August 27, 20214 yr I would say it is now 100% happening. They have opened registration and started taking payments, and implemented a full vax requirement. Wynn announced their series schedule yesterday also. I def agree dealer shortages may be real and would recommend regging as early as possible.

Gonna be a lot of pissed off idiots, but I like it. We need more of this.
August 28, 20214 yr Well my odds of going to the wsop has gone from zero to 50%. Now if they would get rid of the mask mandate it would be 100%. But this was obviously something they had to do.
August 28, 20214 yr 46 minutes ago, Lurch said: In a game full of liars, I’d still want the masks I would feel perfectly fine not wearing a mask if there was 98% of players vaxed (assuming 2% faked their way in). I will have to make a decision now if it is worth going while having to sit there wearing a mask 12 hours a day. Love the decision to restrict it to vaxed players and always felt that it was the decision they had to make to attract the biggest field. No way would I go if unvaxed players were allowed. I need to find a comfortable mask. I always use these blue hospital looking ones that itch in the inside.
