bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 6, 2013 trying my very best blue! Yeah I probably will very soon :) think the key to my winning is majorly deceiving my opponents stuff like 3 betting 3-5 flop makes a 7 high straight really dry board so I check they bet I bet back I check again an ace comes which is like christmas for me because if they made set or even pair of aces they may think they have best hand and my big 3bet will make them either think I have an ace too or a lower card than ace I check again they put in large bet I put them all in they call and bam they are gone and did have an ace ;) hehehe Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 6, 2013 note I only 3bet guff hands with straight potential when I have a reasonably high stack and loose players at the table. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueday 16936 Posted December 6, 2013 It's great when you've got the nuts and you know they are just betting on that ace. Sounds like you got it all "sorted"! ;) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 8, 2013 I dominated here again and am pretty pissed off I only came 2nd as I was the better player the other guy was playing donk hands heads up and got really lucky making a full house with 1 deuce lost like 90% of my stack to him and then the next hand he rivered me and won it! I still say I am better than him though bet him in nearly every other hand! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueday 16936 Posted December 8, 2013 Fantastic result bigdk. Very unlucky though - players like that are destined to win no matter what rubbish hands they play. Then again it's all about the pre-flop raise (or not as the case may be) 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 12, 2013 had like one bb left and blinds were coming up to me so I shoved with A6 of spades unfortunately my heads up opponent had AJ and only one spade showed up he paired his ace with bigger kicker and you know what happened next! Still 145th out of over 4000 players and at least I won something 15 cents lolol! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zuga 9347 Posted December 12, 2013 what was the first place payed? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 12, 2013 13 euros or thereabouts depending on how many people do rebuys. but 13 euros at unibets great for me as I can turn 13 into 100 on slots if I get off to a good start and run well ;) and have the winnings in my neteller the next day they are pretty quick at withdrawals.

blueday 16936 Posted December 12, 2013 Top 3% is a great result bigdk. Don't beat yourself up over losing that hand - with 1xBB you didn't have much of a choice except to shove. Well done. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 18, 2013 me bossing the table and my finishing position 2nd!! woohoo! Was a 3/1 underdog when it got heads up but I think I played really well I was actually 2nd shortest stack on the final table just played tight and shoved with my good hands when I got a call I won them all. then I just played tight till it went heads up but jsut didnt pick up the decent hands and kept getting raised. still great result out of over 1300 players though!! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blueday 16936 Posted December 19, 2013 That's a great result bigdk. I see you won a ticket to another tourney and I gather you need to win another ticket in that tourney to enter the main tourney? Very well done and let us know how you get on in the next one. blue P.S. Congrats on the Super Hero status. Well done. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bigdk1888 1578 Posted December 19, 2013 Yep that the jist of it think if I win a place in next one there is just one more to win after that still unsure if this is a route to an actual seat at a live one though have to play them to find out! ty blue one thing I really need to work on is heads up at high stakes though for some reason I am fine with low stakes but when its like 10 grand plus a blind my head gets mashed lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In other words when blinds are 30 and your stack is 1500, there isn't any difference between that and the blinds being 10,000 and your stack being 500,000.

blueday 16936 Posted January 1, 2014 1155 players and I managed 56th in the 2014 euro freeroll on 32Red Poker. €9 win. I'm pleased with that but could have done better! Was raised on my BB by a serial raiser and lost with 22 to AJ. I should have folded tbh but I thought this serial raiser just had another pile of rubbish in his hand. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
