Ultimate Poker chez Kodiak Nov 11-06

Ok - so we knew it was coming one of these nights, a real game of NL. 8 great players joined in, including newbie Mike (Dot's ringer) for some tight playing, well, except for the three all-ins before 10 that put three players all-out. Say, what?

First to hit the floor was Rico - what began as a bluff turned into his bye-bye as Mike stayed in with A9 for the board to flop A3A. Rico was holding a K? and tried for it but was called. A K on the turn thought Rico, maybe I am ok, and maybe I can get him off if he has a weak kicker. However, Mike stayed in and called an all-in which meant Rico's buy-in now was with Mike. And Yes, we were all a bit scared...well, except for Pete whose wall was shrinking....

Next to flop out was Heather, who has returned to our little game (yea!), falling to Mike calling her all-in with AJ. Her 10s didn't hold and Mike now had two down.

And last before the re-buy was Stuey to go - but this time, by Little Dot. Stu's all-in with AQ was called by Dot with 97. A nine hit and held. Pot odds? no, but Stu was short stacked....no comment required....

And finally, the rebuy. All knockouts did, and some of us topped up so a big pot was at stake.

First to go for good was Fireshirt James. Rico, who had a great double up with his nuts, er um, the nuts, right after the rebuy (he got his $ back from Mike) took down James. James moves with 10s but Rico is holding the cowboys and they held. So, James began to deal.

Next to go for good, was Stuey, knocked down and out By Sir Kill. Stuey's A7 suited was taken down when Pete hit a Q on the flop pairing his and it held. Then, Heather said good-bye again, also taken down by Sir Kill, Her K10 didn't stand a chance against Kill's ladies and his luck. Sniff.

5 players left. In the points, but only two were going to see any cash. Kodiak, whose tight play was working for once lost sight of the game for about three rounds and found herself going all in with 17.75 over and over again. No one called, until she had the 10s - Kill had K10. Looks ok she thought until Stu hit the flush with his K. Sniff. (By the way, Kill, when I moved all-in with the flop at QQ9, I had 73 offsuit. Thanks for folding!) :>)

Plop Plop fizz fizz, oh what a joy Dot is. Rico took down Dot. Rico calls his all-in (the hand after Kodiak fell btw) with KQ to see Q10. The K held as high card.

3 players, one bubble boy. Stu had gotten knocked down but his wall soon resumed with three double ups in a row. Rico had made his way back from the dead and Mike was showing his strength throughout. A tight 3 handed game was on its way. But alas, Mike left the table taken out by Rico. Mike called an all-in with 33 (he said he would regret it) to see Rico's KJsuited. the board hits 10-8-8-9-9 - with the river, the K counts and Mike says good-bye.

Two players. They decide to split taking $ according to chips. Good game boys and the official winner, Kill.

Some quotes that we can write down....

"I'd go donkey Kong on your ass" Rico to Dot
"I've never seen that kind of passion from your brother" Stu to Dot
"How do you like to contort like that?" James to his crotch
"Bleah" Kill when his wall was almost gone and knocked out with $8.25
"Bad enough he is getting a curb" Rico to Kill after his first double up - if you don't knock down the wall, the curb becomes the mountain

Kodiak out~
"Ding Ding"

Roo,

Nice write up again. I took one for the team early to see if Mike was a "real" player, and we found out he was (doh...). All good though as i got him back later (twice). Fun game all...see you again soon.
