My biggest tournament win came from busting my FTP account the first week of October and being entered into the "Lucky Player's Freeroll". I had already cashed out over 2.5k from FT, and I knew that this site has enough fish to make it worthwhile. I came in 2nd out of 500, winning 1.2k.
My biggest win at a table came last week when I was sitting $5/10 and held pocket Jacks on the button. 3 limpers prompted me to raise it up to $65. SB folded, BB called, and 2 of 3 of the limpers called. The flop was J-8-3, with 2 clubs. BB bet 300, 1 of the remaining 2 limpers called, and I called, fearing the flush draw. With how often that junk hits, I made the incorrect move of calling. The turn was an 8, of clubs. I had made the nut full house and now the flush was out there. BB bet another 300, the limper went all-in, I raised all-in, and got called by the BB. BB had AJ, ace of clubs (Horrible Play!), and the limper had KcQc. I took down the pot, basically tripling up with my double up and the limper pushing 900. 3.1k profit from the hand.  |
