It's Poker, Not Bingo: SDMB League 1st Quarter 2008

Could someone post the hand, by any chance?

And I see the latest quarterly standings, but what were the results last week?

Ok, it took a couple of tries, but I think the game ‘SDMB DST’ is at the right time.

As much as it pains me:

  • MissTake sitting in seat 1 with $1372.50 [Dealer]
  • Oslo_Ostra sitting in seat 2 with $1350.00
  • asterion1 sitting in seat 3 with $1615.00
  • Dag_Otto sitting in seat 4 with $1292.50
  • DukeOfRat sitting in seat 5 with $1825.00

Oslo_Ostra posted the small blind - $15.00
asterion1 posted the big blind - $30.00

** Dealing card to Oslo_Ostra: 8 of Spades, 6 of Spades
Dag_Otto folded
DukeOfRat folded
MissTake called - $30.00
Oslo_Ostra called - $30.00

** Dealing the river: 10 of Diamonds

MissTake wins $450.00 from the main pot

She later knocked me out when we both had pocket clubs, but hers were better when the turn completed our flushes.

Limit? Uh, sorry about that. I had car troubles tonight and couldn’t make the game.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

I may wander in a bit late tonight… Hope not, but best laid plans of mice and men and all that rot.

After an intense evening of poker, the game ended in a head-to-head death match. Thanks to all and I will see you next week.

The standings, with one week to go:

1 Robot Arm 66.2
2 Kyyrewyyoae 61.9

4 Yeticus Rex 60.1
5 Miss Take 58.5
6 Dag Otto 53.4
7 Duke of Rat 51.3

Looks like a battle for second through fourth is all that remains.

Time to think about a theme for the next quarter.

We still haven’t decided on a thread title.

Seeing as Root won the Q, maybe something bot like?

I got nothin’.

The one theme I remember and thought had traction was something along the lines of “No Change”. First out of my head is “America Wants Change: Not SDMB Poker 2nd Q 2008”.

Lemme see if I have the transcript…

(Dang, AIM can be confusing at times re: options.)

Look. I know some of you people are creative and clever. It’s time to suck it up and make a meaningful contribution. (The late GO used to be so good at thread starters.)

It looks like the clock kicked over, so I created “SDMB Weekly DST”, which I hope will show up at the right time.

Corrected wins totals. Might as well add a stat:

Bubble finishes:

3 ast, Dag
2 Duke, Kyy
1 Missy, Root, Yeti
