Bow Down: It's Poker Time! SDMB Poker 2nd Q '08

The Game Room
41

You’ve all had to put up with me grousing about my bad luck lately, so it’s only fair to post this from earlier today:

RobotArm sitting in seat 3 with 10305.00
midoban999 sitting in seat 8 with 8705.00[Dealer]
RobotArm ante’d - 45.00
midoban999 ante’d - 45.00
midoban999 posted the small blind - 300.00
RobotArm posted the big blind - 600.00

** Dealing cards to RobotArm: 4c, 8c
midoban999 called - 600.00
RobotArm checked

** Dealing the flop: 6c, 7c, 5c
RobotArm checked

42

So, does this mean you’re going to quit bitching about the evil poker gods and bad mojo?

43

Yes, for the next four days. I promise.

I did manage to get him all-in. When I saw his cards, I don’t know what the hell he was thinking.

44

For posterity
And yes, I did win the Sng overall.

Damn well glad, as I bubbled friggin out in the 7 card stud Freeroll.

45

Results tonight:

1 Oslo the Magnificent
2 MissTake
3 the Duke
4 the animatronic Arm
5 ast*, who claims not to be distracted by boobage**

*I almost feel bad about clobbering him with AAAA.

Nah, it felt great.

**Oslo would be

46

Standings:

1 Miss Take 70.9
2 Dag Otto 63.0
3 Oslo Ostragoth 62.3
4 Duke of Rat 60.2
5 Kyyrewyyoae 45.6
6 Robot Arm 41.2
7 Asterion 30.8

Missy continues to slide down, but I think she will own this quarter (8 of 13 games done; 5 to go).

On the other hand, Ast has 3 last place finishes out of 6 games, plus 5/7, 6/7 and 3/7. It’s time for an Intervention:

“Dude, your boobage distraction is ruining your life. Can’t you see that? Can’t you see that it hurts all of us as well?” Boo hoo boo hoo! :frowning:

47

Considering how few chips I had for a decent part of the game, to come back and end 2nd is pretty kick ass, IMO.

I won’t be playing Thursday 06/12 (RedneckFest), so I better bitch up and play my little heart out to retain my lead.

Oh, and you played very well too, O :smiley:

48

I let you get back in it when you had something like 400 chips, right? I am such a moron. :smack:

49

Between you and Duckie my chip stack grew nicely. Oh, and a few snitched blinds from Root helped.

50

I wish I had that as an excuse.

Really, really wish.

Negreanu’s sick reads. A non-poker-related blog entry by the same guy.

Tonight’s results:

  1. Me
  2. Kyy
  3. Otto
  4. Oslo
  5. ast
  6. Duke
  7. Missy
53

And the standings:

1 Miss Take 67.1
2 Dag Otto 62.9
3 Oslo Ostragoth 61.1
4 Duke of Rat 57.3
5 Kyyrewyyoae 52.2
6 Robot Arm 50.5
7 Asterion 31.8

Missy helped us out by finishing 7/7. If she can keep that up, there is hope for us to knock her out of #1.

Here’s a shocker (not): I lead in bubbles with 3. Something about making the break is kryptonite to me.

54

Root and Kyy were up and badly down early, yet rallied to finish 1 - 2. Very nice game for both.

55

Dude - what is this:

Tonight’s results:

  1. Me
  2. Not me
  3. Him
  4. A different fella
  5. You know, that guy
  6. That other guy
  7. Somebody else
56

First draft.

57

Tonight’s results:

  1. asterion (Katrina was taking a nap)
  2. Duke
  3. RobotArm
  4. Missy
  5. Oslo
  6. Dag
  7. Yeti
58

Freakin’ ISP craps out 40 minutes into the game. I hope my bot did at least moderately well.

Anyways, standings for the quarter:

1 Miss Take 65.7
2 Dag Otto 59.9
3 Duke of Rat 59.5
4 Oslo Ostragoth 59.2
5 Kyyrewyyoae 52.2
6 Robot Arm 51.9
7 Asterion 44.8

Three of us within reach of the queen bee. May we take her down.

And nice for Ast to get over his boob fixation to win one.

59

Did I do 3 games this quarter yet?

60

I only have two for you.
