Double Mookie Fucked
44 was my killer tonight. Bubbled in the Mook #1 when Astin called my all in with 44 (Even stacks, I had him covered by 800 or so).. and I flopped a flush draw, and 6 outs for over cards.. then my 15 outs improved to 18 outs when I added a gutshot on the turn.. but alas it was not to be.. Bad Call? Not sure. He had a small stack so it was not the worse thing in the world to gamble I guess.. and he could have always hit his 4.. Did I need to push here? I think so. While 7th would have been nice I needed chips to try and take a shot at first.
44 killed me in the second try too.. I raise JJ in ep.. and a guy with 44 decides much like Astin to push. Of course he caught his 4 on the flop and I went out in 10th place.
Crappy night. I ended up taking a 17$ profit off the cash tables even after my buyin so that was good I guess..
I really do not have enough luck to win an MTT. I should just quit forever.
Three good things happened during the MTT though:
1. Love Elf Called me Fugly but begged me for something. Nothing more attractive than a woman begging a fugly guy.
2. IronGirrrllll said and I quote "Take me down Waffles!", I still have a woody over that!!!
3. I bluffed AlCantHang off a huge pot with the Mook! WOOT!

Tough couple of hands...it's always good to have you at the tourney, especially since you are one of the "founding fathers".

waffles, i found your calling, and mine too..if we could only get ride of our jobs and families.
I played limit holdem on my cruise ship. my tagle each night consisted or 1 good player, 3 asians that spoke little english, but enough to convey that they had never played holdem before, but had a big bank roll, 2 crazy old italians, I love those guys, and 2 drunk punks. You see every flop for $3, toss the hands that miss, and the table would call, or even better, re-raise every bet with 3rd pair. I was making a $100 an hour, at $1/3 limit. I think I found my calling in life. Oh and during the day I snorkeled and drank mai tais. Ahhhhhh. but then i got sick and missed the live mook, whaaaaaaahhhh.
whats up with foxwoods?

Good questions, Waffle. I can't remember exactly, but I do remember a bet of $2, which was twice the pot (a big bet but fairly common at that $10 level). I shoved thinking that they were probably on flush DRAWS and I wanted to get them off or they had two pair or a set, and of course my straight was good, right? Given that it's 1/125 or whatever it is to flop a flush?
:)
P.S. I probably wouldn't make that play in a $50 game but it was $10, and at that donkey-ish level, more often that not, it's worth the risk.
