Low-ish stakes NLO8 tourney on ACR, close to the bubble
UTG opens to 2.5, incredibly splashy villain that barely covers me (both about 50BB deep) raises to 7 in cutoff, I call on the button with [Ad Kc Qc Td]. UTG calls.
Flop is [8s Jc 9c]. Flop the nuts with the redraw to most of the world.
UTG check, villain bets 15bb, I jam. UTG folds, villain calls.
Villain shows [Ac Tc 5s As].
Turn 2h, river 5c.
Pretty standard call from villain but I fucking hate poker sometimes. Dude has been shoving chips in with absolute trash O8 hands for like 2 hours and this one time he shows up with an actual hand. I try not to be results oriented but I got drawn out on so many times today (getting it in good almost every time), it's just one of those days that gives you a thousand yard stare and makes you wonder why the fuck this is your hobby.
I know those days! I think this is a fold pre in O8 for 1/7 of your stack though, esp if UTG is good, since they should be tight, and also know that villain is a dullard and may decide to re-bomb it pre if they have AA2 or whatever. One way hands are brutal in split pot games. Obv once the flop comes, GG.

Oh come on. How many years have I taken Texas straight up when OU was giving points? I’ll take the $50 though.
Several for sure, which is why I will take the worst of it with you, but never over two TD either. I’ll also offer a modified spread of +7 up to $150 if you’d prefer. -

Yo, we betting this year? How much?
Spread this year eclipses our previous years pretty considerably! I'll go up to $50 straight up or up to $200 on the +14, your choice.

2017 was the last 2:30 game. Lots at 9. Fair at 10 that year.
That's the year that people said it actually opened earlier after the fact b/c I posted bitching about it haha. If it truly holds to this, goddamn all the 230 truthers.

Parking not open til 3. Gates don't open til 4. You and any other Sooners you hang out with, should probably just skip this year. No sense in wasting your time.
Would think you would want me watching every minute this year, Number One.

Hey all,
One of the reasons I always liked 11a for this game is that the fair opens parking at 7a and gates at 8 when the game is early. That let us get to the fair at 7, drink in the lot til 8, then get a Fletcher's and a fried butter etc while the air was crisp and the lines were short to non-existent. The last time the game was 2:30, the website said parking at 9 and gates at 10. We went with that, and it was hot and crowded when we arrived. But people mentioned that it still opened early that year? Anyone with any intel about when parking/gates will open this year?

Yeah I keep forgetting there are three 4s on the board.
Figured! Yeah, if the board is 2344K or something, absolutely must again lead river. On 23444, our hand got turned into napkins.
Reminds me of a fun Big O cash pot I played at WSOP several years ago now, I have A235Q with nut clubs. Get stacks in on 557 with two clubs. Huge flop for me of course, trips top kicker, uncounterfeitable low draw, nut flush draw. Runs out 7-7. So my low misses, flush misses, and now my trips top kicker doesn't even play, I am playing my AQ with the 777 on board. Napkins. I vomit in my lap but scoop the pot over my opponents AJ245 with non-nut clubs hahaha, so he has AJ with the 777 on board.-

You'll called by all the worse straights and maybe A2/A3 or hero called by AK/AQ but maybe you're right that it's too thin to bet there now that I think about it more.
We lose to A2 and A3. A5 is the only worse straight and we block it and surely if UTG opens A5, gets multi callers, and flops wheel, they are betting flop. -

I think I'm always betting that river, though. You're gonna get raised a very small percentage of the time and you can fold those.
Actually kind of shocked your opponent checked back.
why bet river? what is calling that isn't a boat? or are we hoping to bluff out a small boat? I'm just check-pukefolding river or possibly check-calling if I think opp can have AK/AQ based on his tendencies, size of turn bet and may try to bluff me off a baby boat like maybe I had A3.
Agree as UTG there I'm betting river with 99.
-
No. I could see it more on like a 9-8-7 flop where we are much more vulnerable.

Yeah I needed a tire replaced and went to the Discount Tire nearby so I could swing in and get the $10 annual membership, but noped out after the parking lot/line. Too bad you couldn't sign up online, they would have gotten a decent amount of business from me if so, but now none.

Wow, they are usually better than this IME. Curious which floor made the initial ruling.

BB kept his cards in his hand, dealer called floor, floor ruled oral action is binding and folded his hand and gave $44k from his stack to small blind.
I told floor action was over, doesn't matter what he said. Floor disagreed.
I asked if I got all in preflop with a buddy and cards are all face up can I fold after the flop once I see I'm going to beat him?
He said no, I asked how is this different and he didn't have an answer.We had 14 people left, 12 got paid and 99% of the time when it gets to 13 in this tournament we agree to pay 13 something.
The other short stack at the table was livid about the ruling.
JFC this is tilting to read. WHAT ACTION DID HE FOLD TO?

Tell the dealer not to let the cards muck, but don’t touch them myself. I absolutely have the right to defend the game. This is not one of those “shut up if you’re not in the hand” situations
Dealer/floor should flip his cards up and run it out.100% this. BB can't fold, and every all-in hand must be tabled in a tournament.

If I fold, would have been quartered 0% of the time. If I call, 100%.

The smoke room at City Market is still one of my absolute favorite places on earth.
Had LMBBQ on Friday, brisket was fine, pork ribs were good, jalapeno sausage was really excellent, as was a new smoked boneless skinless chicken they had for $18.99/pound.

Get dealt AAK82 double suited. Raise $10 pre flop and get 5 callers. Flop is AdJd2s. I pot for $55, get check raised all in by guy to my right for $200 more. I announce fuck it and call. He shows J65d43d. Just need to avoid diamonds and 3-5. Next card out 4 of diamonds, river does not pair the board and I double him up. Looked at the odds and I was a 36-64% dog in equity after the flop. Need to learn to fold sets of aces.
Folding here would be bad. You were putting in 35% of the money and have 36% equity so you should call if he shows his hand before you act and he has basically the worst possible hand for you. He can easily have something like A2234 and you're locked to at least half the pot unless the case deuce or a 5 and non-board pair come.

True. One is a friend using a program and telling me the results so I can adjust my strategy and the other is a friend using a program and telling me the results so I can adjust my strategy. Dunno what I was thinking.

Right. Tamayo wasn't using them. Other people were and communicating the information to him.
EDIT to add: And I'm not trying to be smartass or pedantic. For example, what if I'm down to 12 bigs in a tourney and text a buddy and say hey wug open jamming ranges 12 bigs BTN, CO, HJ? and he replies? Was I "using a solver"? I don't think so. It gets pretty gray pretty fast.

The QQ fold is pretty crazy, and I guess depends on exactly how much $$ you can add by making the final table, which I have no estimate on. Also, if you think you have a significant skill edge and will benefit from the rest day, and/or a team of really sharp people who can spend that day crafting notes and plans on the other players, then there is a lot of value in not busting beyond just the pay jumps themselves. I wasn't watching the coverage, so dunno how much the guy who opened that hand was opening, which also impacts it of course.
Looks like this was in fact part of his value for the FT! I can't agree with calling it cheating, but agree it's a bad look and agree that it will be made against the rules going forward. The trick will be what constitutes "coaching"? "Hey, next hand, you should open QTo+, J7s+, 44+" surely is. But what about "The blinds in the next hand are defending way too tight, open up?" Or "relax, deep breaths, you have 40 bigs, you're fine"?

This goddamn game, I swear. Have been chipping/pitching really well recently, I'm an 18.5 and I compare myself to a 15 index in my Arccos and have been consistently +SG in short game vs a 15, including multiple rounds where I was close to or even better than scratch.
Have a round where I hit 9/13 fairways with all four misses being just in light rough with realistic shots at the green; was on the green or greenside on all 5 par 3s, including a 5w to 9 feet on one; had zero lost balls/penalty strokes AND gained strokes putting! Must have been a great round right?? OPE, lost 10.9 strokes short game, whammy!! FIVE times down in 5 from greenside and four more down in 4.
Hate golf, can't wait to play more golf.
