Played in a live tourney last night.

I think around 70 people started, and I managed to make it to the final 2. It went back and forth for a while, blinds were very high, 8,000/16,000 with a 2,000 ante. There were 280,000 in chips at the table. He had slightly more chips than I did.

Here's the hand:

Dealt to me (97)

Him: Calls 6,000
Me: Checks

Flops comes T68

(I almost jizz my pants)

Me: Checks
Him: goes all-in
Me: Calls
Him: Shows T4s, top pair.
Me: Shows 97, straight.

Turn comes T68 (T)

River comes T68 (T) (T)

Him: Wins tourney with quad tens.

Remember the look on Mikey McDermott face after losing to Teddy's aces full? That was me....though I don't remember Mikey crying.

LOL

I don't think he's stating anything about being rigged. In fact I think gibby is trying to induce an argument. This gibby dude was viewing a table I was playing at last week trying to start an argument. Dude must not have any cash b/c he's never playing poker.

I believe in poker gods. They giveth, and they taketh away.

That beat I took last night was the worst beat I've ever taken. I try to find out the percentages whenever I take a bad beat. With the nut straight I was a 97% favourite over my opponent, who had only top pair.

But in July I was again, heads up, and bluffed at the wrong time. I held Js4s, and bluffed all-in, and was quickly called by my opponent, who held AcTc. Miraculously, the board flushed, hearts, and we split the pot.

So in the end the cards even out.

well, AT vs J4 is hardly straight vs one pair, but its a similar idea.

J and 4 are both live---ur really not worse then like 35-40% there
