Poker: Home Tournament – October 2009

My house move the day prior to the poker certainly didn’t stop me playing but did stop me from being able to immediately report on all the action that happened…. consequently I only vaguely remember what happened now (even less than normally), so will be brief !

I do remember cruising along and being happy with my chip stacks, then with blinds around 200/100 and Steve with around 800 left in the BB, I put him all in with something like QT    He nearly folded, but called in the end with K-9 (?) and doubled up.  After that my chips seemed to slip away and was happy enough just to make the points

The final battle for the top three was also amazing, with Lee as the chip leader he took on Steve with A-J but Steve had A-Q   No-one improved, until Lee hit his J on the river to take out Steve in 3rd, then a couple of hands later took on Derek with A-Q against Derek’s A-K but Lee hit flush on river to win the game!  (I think anyway, but certainly won the hand on the river)

Any players who have better memories than me, then please go ahead and post a comment…. Normal service will be resumed next month
