Got some really fun hands tonight.

7 Card Stud High-Low ($0.50/$1), Ante $0.10, Bring-In $0.15 (converter)

3rd Street - (1.60 SB)

Seat 1: xx xx 9___folds
Seat 2: xx xx K___folds
Seat 3: xx xx 6___folds
Seat 4: xx xx 4___calls
Seat 5: xx xx A___calls
Hero: 2 Q 4___brings-in
Seat 7: xx xx T___folds
Seat 8: xx xx J___folds

Three hearts as the bring-in. I'm very live here, but with one of my cards being th Q I decide not to raise.

4th Street - (2.50 SB)

Seat 4: xx xx 4 7___checks
Seat 5: xx xx A 7___checks
Hero: 2 Q 4 2___checks

I pair my dueces, not exactly what I was looking for but I'll take a free card.

5th Street - (1.25 BB)

Seat 4: xx xx 4 7 K___folds
Seat 5: xx xx A 7 2___checks___calls
Hero: 2 Q 4 2 6___bets

Time to find out if anyone is interested in this hand. It was pretty early in the session but I had pegged seat 5 as a donk, she was playing too many hands, so I didn't put her on a made low here. I figured since seat 4 bricked I could pick this up. 

6th Street - (3.25 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx A 7 2 J___calls
Hero: 2 Q 4 2 6 6___bets

Two pair and I bet it again.

River - (5.25 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx A 7 2 J xx___calls $0.15 (all-in)
Hero: 2 Q 4 2 6 6 K___bets

I made my flush but it hardly matters at this point.

Total pot: (5.55 BB - $5.55)

Hero shows [Kh Qh] 4h 2c 6s 6h [2h] a flush, King high, for high
Seat 5 shows [Ac 9d] Ad 7s 2d Jc [3h] a pair of Aces, for high
Hero wins the pot ($5.30) with a flush, King high

Seat 1: xx xx J___folds
Seat 2: xx xx 7___calls
Seat 3: xx xx 9___folds
Seat 4: xx xx 7___folds
Seat 5: xx xx 3___brings-in___calls
Hero: 6 8 4___completes
Seat 7: xx xx 8___folds
Seat 8: xx xx 4___calls

Maybe a little aggressive with this hand. It's a nice hand and 0 clubs are out, but I want a multiway pot. However, my raise doesn't deter 3 people behind me from calling. 

4th Street - (5.60 SB)

Seat 2: xx xx 7 K___checks
Seat 5: xx xx 3 5___checks
Hero: 6 8 4 Q___checks
Seat 8: xx xx 4 Q___checks

Well that card blows. I get a free look at 5th thankfully.

5th Street - (2.80 BB)

Seat 2: xx xx 7 K 4___checks___calls
Seat 5: xx xx 3 5 9___checks___calls
Hero: 6 8 4 Q 6___bets
Seat 8: xx xx 4 Q 7___folds

I hit a pair of 6s. Time to see who's still interested in this pot. All but one. 

6th Street - (5.80 BB)

Seat 2: xx xx 7 K 4 3___calls
Seat 5: xx xx 3 5 9 K___checks___calls
Hero: 6 8 4 Q 6 5___bets

I decide to keep the lead. I have a club draw, still have 5 clubs left in the deck plus any A would probably win the low for me.

River - (8.80 BB)

Seat 2: xx xx 7 K 4 3 xx___checks
Seat 5: xx xx 3 5 9 K xx___checks
Hero: 6 8 4 Q 6 5 T___checks

I brick and have no chance of winning any portion of th pot.

Total pot: (8.80 BB - $8.80)

Hero shows [Ts 8c] 4c Qh 6h 5c [6c] a pair of Sixes, for high
Seat 2 shows [Ah Th] 7h Kh 4d 3c [8s] Ace King high, for high and 8,7,4,3,A, for low
Seat 5 shows [Js Jd] 3s 5h 9d Kc [3h] two pair, Jacks and Threes, for high

4th Street - (4.70 SB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 7___calls
Hero: 6 6 6 6___bets
Seat 8: xx xx 5 5___calls

Absolute perfect turn card, I keep betting and get two calls. 

5th Street - (3.85 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 7 4___calls
Hero: 6 6 6 6 A___bets
Seat 8: xx xx 5 5 K___folds

I keep betting of course and Seat 8 folds. I can't make a low hand but I'm not too worried about Seat 5, could have a lot of hands here. It's the same villain from hand #1.

6th Street - (5.85 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 7 4 T___calls
Hero: 6 6 6 6 A 7___bets

Another $1. 

River - (7.85 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 7 4 T xx___folds
Hero: 6 6 6 6 A 7 8___bets

Missed her draw. I take it without having to show. Good enough.

Seat 4: xx xx A___folds
Seat 5: xx xx 8___calls

We're the bring-in this hand. 

4th Street - (2.10 SB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 T___checks
Hero: K 6 4 2___checks
Seat 8: xx xx 6 J___checks

Yawn. Looking for another low on 5th to maybe get a hand going here.

5th Street - (1.05 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 T Q___checks
Hero: K 6 4 2 Q___checks
Seat 8: xx xx 6 J 3___checks

Another free card, I'll take it.

6th Street - (1.05 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 T Q 8___checks___calls
Hero: K 6 4 2 Q K___checks___calls
Seat 8: xx xx 6 J 3 2___bets

I hit split Ks against open 8s. Seat 8 bets, I put him on a likely made low, and I think seat 5 just has the 8s, so I call. BTW this was a different Seat 5, but still I think just 88 is likely given the play so far. 

River - (4.05 BB)

Seat 5: xx xx 8 T Q 8 xx___checks___calls
Hero: K 6 4 2 Q K T___checks___calls
Seat 8: xx xx 6 J 3 2 xx___bets

And an over call with just a pair of kings in a split pot game!!! SICK!!!!

Total pot: (7.05 BB - $7.05)

Seat 8 shows [8s 7c] 6c Js 3d 2h [5d] Jack Eight high, for high and 7,6,5,3,2, for low
Seat 5 shows [Ac 5c] 8c Ts Qs 8h [2d] a pair of Eights, for high
Hero shows [Kc Tc] 4d 2c Qc Ks [6s] a pair of Kings, for high
Hero wins the high pot ($3.35) with a pair of Kings
Seat 8 wins the low pot ($3.35) with 7,6,5,3,2

High only hand, but it's too good to pass. 

4th Street - (4.20 SB)

Seat 3: xx xx 5 8___calls
Seat 5: xx xx 9 8___calls
Hero: A A Q Q___bets

Open Qs on 4th for two pair, two callers.

5th Street - (3.60 BB)

Seat 3: xx xx 5 8 J___folds
Seat 5: xx xx 9 8 K___folds
Hero: A A Q Q A___bets

I boat it up on 5th, gotta charge the draws, but they both fold. Wouldn't have minded seat 5 calling.

Seat 5: xx xx 4___calls___calls
Hero: 3 3 3___completes
Seat 7: xx xx 6___folds
Seat 8: xx xx A___folds

How about that? We're rolled up again with a low card showing. Let's get as much money in there as possible. 

4th Street - (4.70 SB)

Seat 3: xx xx 5 J___calls
Seat 5: xx xx 4 J___calls
Hero: 3 3 3 K___bets

I'm betting a paint card, which should arouse suspicion if they've been watching me (as I've been check folding basically every time) but they both call after each spiking Js. 

5th Street - (3.85 BB)

Seat 3: xx xx 5 J 6___calls
Seat 5: xx xx 4 J T___folds
Hero: 3 3 3 K 9___bets

Seat 5 bricks again but seat 4 probably has 4 cards to a low at this point.

6th Street - (5.85 BB)

Seat 3: xx xx 5 J 6 4___calls
Hero: 3 3 3 K 9 K___bets

I've filled up, just gotta hope he has the case 4 in the hole.

River - (7.85 BB)

Seat 3: xx xx 5 J 6 4 xx___calls
Hero: 3 3 3 K 9 K Q___bets

I'm almost certainly getting half but I make the obligatory river bet.

Total pot: (9.85 BB - $9.85)

Hero shows [Qd 3s] 3d Kc 9d Kh [3h] a full house, Threes full of Kings, for high
Seat 3 shows [As 9s] 5c Jh 6s 4d [8s] Ace Jack high, for high and 8,6,5,4,A, for low
Hero wins the high pot ($4.70) with a full house, Threes full of Kings
Seat 3 wins the low pot ($4.70) with 8,6,5,4,A

Total pot $9.85 | Rake $0.45

Lousy $.85 for the session but I thought I played it mostly well. Not sure if I missed a bet or raise somewhere though.

A fun limit hand

Image
So I joined PokerSavvy Plus to watch some videos because of the free 7 day trial and also because of Matusow. Some good stuff on there, haven't got to all of it but Matusow had some good videos on there. A lot of it is HORSE and limit 08, but he has a few NL videos on there. Anyway I was watching a series he was doing entited "HORSEing around" where he does a video for each of the 5 horse games. The first one I watched on limit hold'em he was playing 15/30 and cleaning up. Seemed like fun, so I gave it a try. Here's one hand.

New Post

Haven't had the chance to play lately unfortunately, but a few thoughts nonetheless. UltimateBet has updated its software, and well I'm a little disappointed. A few things I would have liked to see are: 1) Stack sizes of the players when you're looking for a game and 2) Fix the stupid hand history crap. Starting with the first thing, stack sizes are very important in a no-limit game. I really only want to play in a game where most if not all the players are sitting with 100bbs or more. I still have to go into the game to see how much each player has, and it's a little time consuming. Not a huge deal since I'm getting used to it, but I think it's something that's a pretty easy addition. The hand history thing is something that really needs to be fixed. On every other major site (Stars, FT, Party), you can have your sessions recorded into poker tracker without having to open the hand history (which you can't even minimize) on each table. Also, on UB you ha...

Vegas - Not what I expected

Unfortunately there's really nothing to report from my Vegas trip poker wise. Lost $20 in a 9/6 video poker machine and that was the extent of my gambling. Just too far away from the casinos that offered good poker action and there was too much other stuff on the itinerary to get over to one of them. Didn't get a chance to get over to the Rio to check out the WSOP either, ah well. Little disappointed at the offerings; what I posted Sunday applies to a lot of the places on the strip as well. Went on Tuesday (really the only chance I got to go out on my own and do some exploring) to a lot of the casinos down there and the Flamingo was the only casino that had a limit game going. Considered jumping in but said fuck it and just walked around and explored the strip some more. One of the people in our group did play a tournament at the Wynn and finished in the top 3 (the remaining players decided to end the tourney right there and split the prize pool).  But for me there was plen...
