May the odds be with you

Yesterday I experienced one of the worst suck outs (in my mind at least). Only because I was playing well and i thought I had a real shot at money. I was playing in a 2000 person $5 tournament. I pushed all in with KK and was called by AK. If an Ace fell so be it, but to lose because 4 spades hit the board while I have the K of spades and he has the A of spaces just sucks. I finished 446 of 2000 and top 220 got paid. Oh well there will be more tournaments and in the same situation again I'll win the majority of the time.

Key - NL = No Limit Hold'em, PLO = Pot Limit Omaha

Yesterday's Totals -
Ring Games:
.5/1 Limit Hold'em: +$16.25

1/2 Limit Hold'em: +14.25

Single Table Tournaments:
$10/1 - 5 played - 2 3rds -$15
$7/1 - 3rd place - +$6

Multi Table Tournaments:
$5 NL - 446 of 2000 - paid 220
$5.50 NL - 120 of 199 - paid 27
$5.50 Omaha Hi/Lo- Finished 41 of 86 - 9 paid







  • NL = No Limit Holdem

  • CP = Crazy Pineapple
  • TD = Triple Draw
  • UTG = Under the Gun (first to act)
  • MP = Middle Position
