LET US GOGOGO

If you didn't see it, take a couple of minutes and watch. Here's my comments: With 300/600 blinds and a 100 ante, Mike Matusow picks up K K UTG and raises to 1800. Everyone folds to Hellmuth in the BB who takes a second and reraises to 7000 with the 7 2 . At the beginning of the game everyone at the table agreed to pay $500 each to anyone who won a hand with the mystical seven-deuce. It's $3500 total, not a lot of money (to these players) so the bragging rights are more important. Hellmuth knows even UTG Matusow might raise some weakish hands, so he's looking to take it down now if he can. Anyway, Matusow seems to think Hellmuth could be very strong here. He seemed to give off some kind of reaction, but he also made a big reraise. Hellmuth hardly ever comes over the top, sometimes he might even smooth call with AA. Matusow elects to just call with the two kings and see what develops on the flop. They're pretty deep (Matusow started with 100k I believe and Hellmuth...

I have gone ahead and cashed out my bankroll on Stars and Carbon Poker, which equals $250. I was able to run my $25 stake on Carbon up to $128, and at that point I decided to just go ahead and cash out. Unfortunately it cost $15 to cash out by check there, and there were really no other cheaper methods, so I had to go with it. I had $133 on Stars and wanted to make it an even $250, so I joined a $50 NL game and bought in for $25 in hopes of winning a couple of bucks. Second hand I'm in the SB with J J . Folded to me, I raise to $2, BB (who has a full stack) calls. Flop comes A J 9 to give me a set of jacks. I check it, BB takes a little bit and bets $3, I just call. Dunno if he was having connection problems or just was pondering a bet. Turn comes J to give me quads. I check, he insta-checks behind. I knew he didn't have anything. River was 6 , I throw $5 into the $9.55 hoping for a crying call, doesn't happen and I take down a smallish pot. What could I have done there? ...
