Nice one BBP! I lost most of my chips early when i flopped trips (10s) and slow played them against dolva who hit top pair (kings). Then on the turn the board paired and I had the boat and was set to rake in a big pot so again I slow played it. Then the river comes a King. Somehow the Kings always manage to get me. I knew Dolva has just made a bigger boat, but I can't throw away the hand so I call away another 400 bucks and he shows his boat.
After that I was short stacked and made a stupid all in move with a gutshot draw but I figured I had two overs so I had plenty of outs. That was until Thinker turned over trip 7s and I didnt hit my str8t plus thinker made a boat anyway so I was done. Quick and easy game for me.
I don't think slow playing the boat was a bad move, but calling the other 400 when I knew he had a bigger boat was stupid. The pot odds were screaming for me to call, but I should have known thats why he bet that much. Then I would have still had close to 1000 in chips and I could have had a fighting chance. Then I might have not made such a stupid move with the gutshot draw. I think I'm going to have to take the advice I gave thinker and sit some games out and do some reading and get ready for season 3.  |
