Chicken Chow Meow - Fall River Style

A fab night of play chez Rossy last night - thanks again for hosting. 2 tables! Big crowd, and crazy cards falling at one table, and chaos theory working on the other made for an interesting evening.

Apologies to notes and names...I didn't get everything so please correct and I will edit this post accordingly!

Pre rebuy to go was Sean at the chaos table. Fireshirt took him down by calling an all-in with straight in hand vs one pair. Board looked like 789-10-6 and Fireshirt held the J-10. Sean had 7Q. But rebuy was soon and all went smooth.

It should be noted that on the first hand of that same table, the pot went to $25 - Chaos vs Dave - Chaos had KK and hit trips sucking in Dave for a big pot. eek.

After the rebuy, next to go was Dave by Fireshirt as well. Dave moved all-in with both a straight and flush draw and Fireshirt with his stack called (it was 2.75)...and his pair of nines held when the river ran dry.

A surprising 10th went to Rico - who didn't catch even the Mumps and eventually with AJ calls a move by Ross with 4s and the fours hit trips...but he was driving ze cockroach so he was stuck.

In 9th, Zeusy, who's trip aces had earlier been nailed by a FH, eventually was wiped by Scott. Zeus with QJ moves all in preflop and is called with 9-10 but Scott hit the 10 and Bam! Bye Zeusy~No shed for YOU!

ONT TABLE! 8 PLAYA'S LEFT. Big stacks - Fireshirt and Scott.

8th to go, but after two breaks, was Chaos Man, who we thought just might break us, but was caught by Fireshirt. Moving after the flop with QJ, Fireshirt with 63 suited had already hit 2 pair and well, hit the flush to rub it in on the river.

7th was Ross, whose hugh stack was demolished in an earlier hand, perhaps someone can enlighten me on it, was taken out by Fireshirt. Ross with KJ and is called by KQ when he moves all-in when the Flop hits J104....But the queen hit on the river.

6th to fall is Mark taken down by Fireshirt as well - AK vs A8..and eight hit. not sure of the timings but I think the all-in was after the entire board was down....it was gutsy~

5th and DAMN IT AGAIN!!!! No $ No points.....
Kodiak.
sigh.
She moves all in with AQ and Brad and Scott mumbles about who is going to call and eventually Scott does with A8. a-ha! BUT THE *#(^#(*%^# 8 hits the river so Kodiak packs her things and waddles on away.

Heather fell about 2 hands later, shortstacked, moves all-in with K10 preflop but dang, Brad calls with AA and to rub it in, hit the trip on the flop.

This infor I have from Fireshirt and Ross but no details to the hands as I was home,

3rd was Brad
2nd was Scott and
#1 was Fireshirt.

Quotes~

Chaos Man, "If I get to the rebuy that's a victory"

Zeus, (overheard) "he went all-in, it only lasted 1 second"

Sean to table, "Chicken Chow Meow" in response to talking Fireshirt's shirt and chinese restaurants.

Kodiak out

A quickie....

I have two recaps to do so this one will be short from the game two weeks passed, chez Kodiak. We had 7 playa's in for the game including the rare appearance of Stu and Mumbles. So a good game was on!

1st out though, was Stu who moved all in with KQ suited. Kodiak calls with A7 suited (she had some chips). And while the KQ hit on the flop, Kodiak hit her flush on the turn.

2nd to go was then Kodiak, of course! It was a big hand. Heather pushes all in after a raise was put out by Mumbles, the big stack man, . Kodiak calls and is called by mumbles after no hesitation. Cards flip, heather shows pocket 10s, Kodiak shows pocket Jacks and mumbles shows AS off suit. Flop hits K77-8-2- so Kodiak is gone...Heather is short, and mumbles, well, dang!

5th to go was Zeusy moving all-in with K3 and called by Heather with K-10. And while a king was donw, the 10 kicker counted.

4th to fly was Rico - no$ but some points. After a flop fell of AA2, and a ck by Mumbles on the flop and the turn, Rico moves all-in but Mumbles held the A so trips took him out.

3rd, and no$ but more points was Kill taken down by Mumbles as well. With K6 suited, he moves all-in to be called by mumbles with AJ. And A hit and while a king came later the pr of aces holds.

Heads Up!

Heather vs Mumbles. Back and forth for a bit with the final hand....With the board looking like 5Q9J and Heather holding 89 and Mumbles checking away, she pushes all-in but damn, he flips the rockets and the Aces hold when the K hits the river.

Quotes, (and I am writing them only b/c they are on the page as Rico and Stu were in charge of quote writing....)

Kill, "If you are reading this, the package was not intened for you" (re: the gummy bears)

Zeus, "If the flop hits, I'm flaccid as a lilly"

Zeus, "Size inconsistency in gummies is disconcerting to the mouth. It befuddled the palette"

Zeus, "As long as you're eatin'"

eeyew.

Oh So, White and Nerdy

West SouthWest side south us play this weekend past chez the Zeus. Without the pregame entertainment of Top Gun, our minds were less controlled and we off to a fun start for 6 little piggies....

Almost a new record was set for the first all-in, all-out move my GI Joe....taken down by trip kings. Once again, our pre 10 play was stiffer than usual....no more limping in....and how could you? There were three hotties at the tables!

We also lost GI Jane pre rebuy but on the last hand at 959. She was taken down by Zeus...her 8 as a high card to fill in a flush was taken by Zeus's queen.

Rebuys were small....The GIs only with partial and Kodiak put in 75c. Had to.

The game, as per usual, moved slower with the Blinds raised but there was enough action for all. GI Jane left us again but this time by Pinky (Next game she may be bluey or greeny or blackie)....The board looked like 5A8Q10 and Gi Jane moved in, but Pinky had Q10 so her two pair were good.

Much later, at about 12, Kodiak fell after much play to Zeus. She was low and was doing her all-in moves, and eventually Zeus was annoyed enough to gamble. He flipped his Q10 offsuit but thin time the girl had something in her bra other than tissues...Her QA was lloking good.....BTW Pinky folded AK after much deliberation.....The board fell hard.....K10K65 so Zeus caught his 10. Of course, Pinky would have had trips and taken a big pot. Kodiak then deals.

So, next to go was Pinky, taken down by Rico with an all-in move by Pinky holding A6....Unfortunately, The BB Rico held KK and they held. No stealing here!

Top three, two paid.

Gi Joe fell next, whittled a bit, and eventually his all-in called by both Rico and Zeus and checked down....Rico's King high won.

Then the heads up battle ensued. A good little match was had and Rico attempted a bluff in the end with a strong board AQJ108...and a flush was possible.....Zeus saw the numbers and called knowing he would still have 1/2 the pot and his top pair (he held AQ) held against Ricos 45.

Some quotes....
Pinky to Zeus "I think you're small"
GI Jane to pinky "You're nothing right now"
GI Jane about GI Joe "I'm not used to waiting around for Joe"
Kodiak about Rico "He's got four inches"
GI Joe about Rico"sounds like chewbacca passing a stone"

and the memories of The Palace also resurface and yes, I am in therapy this week for it....

See you in 2
