The game was great (50c/$1 NLHE), my high point was +$350 but when I kept losing my 80/20 favorites.......I ended up down $170 for the evening..... :(
Only snapped 2 pics.....only during the high point... :sneaky: the big bad beat was when I jammed 65o on an 8779 board and the guy tank called with TT and the river was a Jack.......boo....

I did hit quads twice though, one was a Double board bomb pot with 84o the boards ran out 79TT6 and 42544 and I scooped! Then I had 77, called @kyle's raise preflop, flop was 27Q, we get it all in against his KK and the Turn was 7......so somehow I managed to keep the loss to a minimum but I really should have won piles instead........

Ok, I'll just follow up on the one hand:

Why I asked what do I have, it's really because it DOESN'T matter..... what I realized while playing this hand and against this particular Villain was that HE didn't have an Ace, so when I shove for just ~$85 more, what hands can he really call with that can beat 3 of a kind, which I was representing and felt with a high degree of confidence that he didn't have.....

Anyway, the result was he folded after a bit of tanking and I quietly slid my pocket 33s towards the dealer....... :cool::sneaky:

WSOP is definitely worth it, I always recommend the Monster Stack to 'new' players. Gives you the closest feeling of the Main Event without the $10,000 price tag.... :)

Have to agree Chad. The Monster Stack event at the WSOP in my opinion is the best bang for the buck and I like that it’s in traditional freezeout format.

I think it would be most beneficial to HelluvaLady23 to maybe hit up a WSOP circuit event first just to get a feel for playing in such large fields. I’m pretty sure the WSOP Circuit schedule includes a stop at Horseshoe Baltimore on the schedule. It used to in the past.

Entry fees are sometimes as low as $250 for many of the Ring events. Usually the events have rebuys up to levels 9 or 12 so you would be amongst some loose play till at least the dinner break usually.

Maybe a Borgata Winter Open event next January HelluvaLady23. I’d make a trip back east to visit my old AC stomping ground. :cool:

Actually I could write up 3 hands that were "bad beats"......from $2-5 NL
1) I raise AhKh to $15 in MP, get 3 callers, flop is AA3, checks to me, I c-bet $50 and SB CR me to $150, I call, turn is a Q, SB checks, I check back to pot control, river is a 9, SB bets $400 into me. what would you do?

2) I raise KhKc, OLC (Old Lady Coffee) calls, flop is QdTd8c, I c-bet and she calls, turn is another Q, I bet $200 and she calls, river is 2d and I check and she bets $500 and I fold.....

3) I have KhJh in BB, guy raises to $25, SB calls, and I call, flop is AcTd6c. Original raiser bets $60, SB calls and I call (this is where I think I made a mistake, I think a raise would be better....), the Turn is the Qc, SB jams for his remaining $128, I call (final mistake IMO) and the original raiser folds, river is 4s and he shows 2c3c............

One 'funny' hand came up, I'll share it here:
I had red Qs UTG and raised to $20, gets called by 5 people until the BB reraises to $200.... I fold for several reasons, yes the BB might be making a play, but to do that into 6 people is pretty crazy without something good, and of those I'm only flipping at best vs AK......
Anyway it folds all around and he flashes me black Qs...... and I laugh and say "You weren't hitting a set" and he says oh you had AQ, and I laughed and said no I had the other 2 Qs and he literally almost fell off his chair.... I did pause and almost reraised to $500, but decided against it as he had ~$3000 vs my $1500 and I didn't feel like playing for stacks for a 'thousand' big blinds...... :sneaky: anyway it was funny, he said if I had reraised he probably would've folded....but oh well....how can I put him on QQ when I have 'blockers'....... LOL ;)

One hand that was memorable: guy raised to $12, old guy called the $12 I have 9♥️8♥️ and I reraise to $42. We are playing about $700 effective stacks, the initial raiser calls and the og folds, the flop is horrible with 6♠️A♠️K♠️ but I c-bet $50 just to see what's up, and the guy sighs and then reraises me to $250, and I think for a bit and then fold and he shows me KK......... he was the most competent player there besides me and he still: didn't 4 bet me preflop with KK and when the Ace flops he was still very worried about losing to AA.......... 😏 so yeah pretty easy to run over the table most of the time.
Another good hand I had QQ and raised to $13, got 2-3 callers, the flop was A♦️Q♠️T♠️ I c-bet $20 and one caller, turn was the beautiful T♦️ I check and the guy rips it all in for about $150 and I snap call. He had A♠️6♠️ and the river was the 4♠️
So overall I just kind of knew where I was at all day. No real hard decisions. Played 6 hrs for $1015 profit.
