I won the SBR gear tournament today. Maybe if I play enough of these things I can open up my own SBR store.

[yisman]

I think you can only win one of each.

[FuzzyDunlop]

What happened to the 6 max tables. only one at nl400

[yisman]

Tables often change. I don't know what causes it. Some sometimes disappear.

[yisman]

damn, jk off, guy goes all in for a thousand+, I call. he has AJ off. nothing hits. I lose.

[yisman]

AK, all in, final table. Flop comes KJK. Have trips. Another guy has A10 and another has Q10.

Q10 guy pulls a straight on me to beat trips kings.

[yisman]

4th. Unfortunately bounced out when I had a pair of Jacks after flop.

Got called by Profane, who had 34 hearts (unpaired). Only one heart on flop.

Runner runner flush.

[yisman]

Unreal. 21st.

Had JJ, downsouth went all in. I called. He had AQ off.

J on flop, but he manages to hit a straight.

[beerman2619]

damn got 10th today was short stacked. Called 600 with king jack other guy calls with king 3. Flop comes king 3 3 so i went all in figured i was in good shape. Course the other guy had king 3 . Just love poker ha man i haven't done well at all since winning a tourney last monday.

[yisman]

10 PM: about 1500 chips, raise to 4x BB preflop with AK.

spankie goes all-in with KQ. I call.

Flop comes queen, nothing for me.

[yisman]

2nd in 10 PM to lock up a spot in the top 100. Going to be very difficult to advance from there, though.

Ultimately lost when I went all in with like 10K chips with a king (king came on flop). Turns out other guy had AA, so pair of aces beat pair of kings.

[yisman]

AA with about 2450 chips. Raise preflop. Augustus calls with K10 off. He hits a straight on the flop (QJ9) and goes all in on me

Finished 26th.

My only other premium hand was JJ and that got no callers.

[yisman]

37th today

in pot, flop comes, I have a pair of 5s. jpowderly goes all in, and I only have 316 left, so I call.

He donk-shoved with zilch. A10 off, no draw.

Turn comes 7, giving me two pair.

Ace on river.

[beerman2619]

so many bad plays get rewarded on poker kind of sucks after awhile

[yisman]

Unreal tonight.

Dealt AK back to back hands, both times I hit 2 aces on flop...and lose.

One time guy had A4, hit 4 on turn.

Other time guy had AJ, hit J on river, IIRC.

Had both beat pre-flop and post-flop.

[yisman]

[yisman]

[yisman]

Bubbled. 10th in 10 PM.

A10 spades ran into KK on final table. Had flush draw after flop, but it failed to hit.

[yisman]

ja, raise to 3x bb, mr leisure re-raises to all in with 78 off pre-flop

I call

clean, until a 7 on the river

2 or 3 minutes later, in the bodog tourney:

guy all in on me pre-flop. I have AK, call. Dude has A8 and sucks out on me. 8 on turn.


philavnh goes all in pre flop with 27, I call with a6. pair of 7s beats pair of 6s. unreal



15th place on sbr, still alive on bodog (9:05 tourney)


My SBR poker luck is gone after the iPad hit.

[yisman]

KK dealt with bb at 30.

I raise to 125 pre-flop. spankie is only caller. Flop comes three separated low cards, of hearts and diamonds. I bet big. spankie calls. Another low card on turn, I bet big again, spankie calls.

River comes Ace.

He had A7 and was calling with nothing, and sucked out on the river.

[yisman]

1675 chips, 19 left in 10 AM, have AK hearts. Go all in.

Everyone folds except mp5070, who's been shoving all tournament with inferior hands.

He has 89 diamonds.

Flop comes diamonds and hearts (forget which had 2), and he catches a flush on the river. Neither had any card matched, so zilch going into river.

How does this even happen?

[yisman]

that's a tough one


AA lost to AK for me in today's 5 PM tourney

[wquine]

that mp5070 guy is sketch, dude had full houses that beat my house and two pair that beat me two, trips kickers, just seemed to hit at an unreal rate. idk, just seemed like way more than probability to me.

[Headstains]

lol

[beerman2619]

sbr poker at its best today. Went all in with aces had about 1400 in chips. Nzr calls all in before flop he had about 2000 chips. So i have aces Nzr has Ace 9 off suit. And the flop is Jack 9 2. You know what the turn card is of course its another 9 love it. How could i go all in before the flop with aces on sbr poker what was i thinking.

[yisman]

yesterday finished tied for 12th.

have not cashed since winning the iPad. Keep getting dropped out in the teens.

[yisman]

Can't catch a break.

QK. Guy raises the bb from 100 to 350. I call.

King hits on flop. Guy keeps shoving. I keep calling. He goes all in. I call.

He has AK

But at least I'm not to99, who went out fairly early with QQ. Ended up all in against 44 and the other dude rivered a 4 for trips.

[yisman]

and out in 27th. A10 loses to AQ

[yisman]

32nd. tkim sucks out again.

717 chips, dealt KK.

I raise to 3x bb.

he calls. Flop comes 78Q offsuit. He bets, I go all in.

He's holding 78, and not only that, but he gets a 7 on the turn.

WTF is with people?

Who calls a big raise pre-flop with 78?

I can't believe the BUCKING week i am having. I go in every bucking time with the best hand and lose ha. Today i get raised by papertrail or whatever the buck his name is for 800. I go all in before the flop i got kings. I even say i got kings in the chat. Papertrail is like well i got to see it so he calls my all in raise of 2800 with jacks. Of course the flop comes Ace Jack 8 FML. Every day this week i have got buck i have lost with aces going all in before flop lose to ace 9. I love SBR Poker where the worse hand going all in always wins!!
