SBR Ryder Cup Day 2 in-game-thread

[benjy]

Well done Ireland. Way to make the best of a tough situation.

Same situation for me. Europe was pushing all the time except for the three or four good hands I got.

I thought I had him when I flopped a straight, but the turn got him the missing card and he wound up with the same straight so I had to split. No big winning hands because people folded anytime I had anything decent.

I could've just tried to wait ireland out, but I decided it was time to call.

In retrospect, I should've stayed conservative and avoided the coinflip hand to maintain chip advantage over third place.

Also unfortunately not lucky with the hands. Got pairs twice, and never had Ace+ high card. That left me folding most hands with assorted rags, which occasionally hit after I folded them.

Congrats Locksmith. Nicely done.

Through 16 tournaments (including 6 PM), every tournament has filled up and out of 64 slots, only once has a player not been able to play. That's pretty impressive.

I think there was only one substitution (poweray->pareto), too.

you got a hole cam or are you referring to the few hands that go to a showdown? i wasnt getting pockets pairs... although i did hit a few flops *cough* hahaha but anyways

which odds do you think are more correct/make more sense- -500 or -150.....if its -150 then you've justified the correction right there.

[yisman]

Big hand early goes to Branch!

Thanks dude, I totally forgot about that.

[yisman]

I wonder why it's titled 5-handed No Limit Hold'em Tournament when it's really 4-handed.

"CAN_pinchylarue: dont worry boys im winnign this"

For posterity.

[RonPaul2008]

Oh well, I pulled river straight and opponent pulled river flush....thats just bad luck.

Blaxor rivers Team Canada to get another much needed victory for Team USA.

[benjy]

Highly entertaining match between crazyparlayking and BlaxOr. Well played by both. Poker gods seem to have a crush on Blax at the moment.

Good game guys.

[downsouth]

Deck hits blaxor in head at the right time. We needed it.
