What would Ponzi Jesus Do? He'd go Full Tilt and Scheme on my Social Security! SDMB Poker, 4th Qtr.

Standings with not much time to improve:

1 MentalGuy 77.5
2 Cyberhwk 73.9
3 MrBootis 64.4
4 Frosted Glass 62.8
5 Dag Otto 62.5
6 Gray Ghost 61.2
7 asterion 58.3
8 MissTake 57.1
9 Craneop2 52.9
10 notfrommensa 51.4
11 cutebut dumb 44.7
12 Yeticus Rex 44.3
13 Meeko 33.2

MG slips again, MrBootis enters the ratings rather nicely - can Cyberhwk steal this quarter?

  1. ghosty,
    9 fubbs,
  2. yeti,
  3. meeko
  4. Mental guy
  5. Dag
  6. Cyberhawk
  7. missy
  8. Crane
  9. NFM

Whew, goods Crane had about 9:1 chip advantage to start, lost it, then I had a 9:1 chip advantage, lost it, and finally beat him.

Wow, thought Hawk was going to run away with it there when I left. Shows what I know (if my 4-bet cib of QQ in position and later overvaluing Q6o—only 50% vs a random?!—in a shove or fold situation weren’t already proof of how little I know…) Hell, if I knew what I was doing, I’d have gone broke earlier with a 55 shove when meeko showed up with AK.

Oh well, I clicked it back hoping you’d shove, and go me, you did. With Aces. Which is pretty much what I’d guess to be the tables’ 4-bet and 5-bet range. Hard to stay focused and think about levels when I’m in the heat of it.

The standings, with one week left to improve:

1 MentalGuy 75.6
2 Cyberhwk 72.1
3 MrBootis 64.4
4 Frosted Glass 62.8
5 Dag Otto 61.9
6 Craneop2 59.8
7 MissTake 58.8
8 asterion 58.33
9 notfrommensa 58.29
10 Gray Ghost 56.8
11 cutebut dumb 44.7
12 Yeticus Rex 42.4
13 Meeko 33.7

I think we know our top two…

Lets get cracking on theme ideas for the next quarter!

Congrats to Mental Guy. Something came up and i’m going to have to give up without a fight. Good luck tonight everyone. I won’t be able to make it.

I’ll play for you, not that that will help you at all or anything.

In one of those freakish events that never occurred when real money was involved, I played my first SDMB tournament and inexplicably won. So, here is a brief, shining moment of glory:

  1. maserschmidt
  2. Notfrommensa
  3. Gray Ghost
  4. craneop2
  5. Dag Otto
  6. fubbleskag
  7. MentalGuy
  8. Yeticus Rex
  9. Meeko
  10. Mr.Bootis

Next week back to normalcy!

Congrats to the cherry on top of the quarterly sundae, Maserschmidt.

To 2012, and beyond!

Two weeks ago, I was in 10th place. Worked my way up to 5th in the Qtr.!

Hard work and dedication.

p.s. Gee, Maser, it’s too bad that players have to play three games to be standings-eligible, because your one victory would have scored a 90.9.
