WSOP MAIN EVENT - Page 4

That sounds like something that would piss me off, sorry to hear that Ket.
Losing to aces when you have kings is one thing, but doing the whole counting thing then thinking about the call is dumb.
Shaking everyones hand except for his was a nice touch I think.

gL to Elky, Rekrul, and Giyom.

I was wondering that myself.

Khan doubled up

Flop: 6s 4h Th

Khan: Qc Qs
Villain: Ac Tc

Turn: Kh
River: Qd

Busted .

Doubled up wtihout showdown within the first 10 hands of the day (once on a pretty big bluff, second time with the nuts when some rich moron put in 80% of his stack then folded to my river shove)

Then the big hand!

The guy who I doubled up off of (more or less) raise to 1.2k at 250/500 from utg. A really loose guy from London (who had a big stack but appeared to be rather good) flatted after some though in MP. I had KK on the cutoff and made it 6k total to go (I have a 60k stack at this point, UTG has ~27k). They both flat. Flop comes 246r, checks to me. I bet 10k and the UTG puts his remaining 12k in. The guy from London folds JJ face up (is that even legal) and I obviously call as I'm committed. 222 good. Pretty shitty way to get knocked down, but I still had 20k.

Unfortunately I had a bad run of cards and got re-stolen from twice and was eventually down to ~10k. The London guy I mentioned before made a cutoff raise and I "re-stole" with A4 suited to run into his TT and go unimproved. I think my resteal is pretty standard but I'm open to speculation (he raiesed 4xbb as his standard, so it seemed like a good spot assuming I have fold equity). I also hadn't shown down anything but KK, the nuts, or AK to this table so I thought that may help get some extra fold equity.

To my backers: Sorry I didn't bring home the big pay day. I really felt I played pretty close to my A-game throughout the entire tournament, and only made one real "mistake" early in Day 1 that I can think of. I know that sounds pretty arrogant but I think I'm fairly realistic about my play and feel confident and content in how I played. Thanks for having faith in me etc., I'll make sure to take it down next year.

Ket, Myth and others, you guys want to get a LP Bustout Failure home-game table running today or tomorrow at Caesars or something? Let me know.

Best of luck to everyone still in.

god Ket i probably would've flipped out pretty hard on that old guy, that's so horrible. kudos to you for having class though and not blowing up on him

sorry to hear you busted too nolan

I turn over kings and he waits yet another 10s for good measure before TURNING OVER ACES. theres a crowd of ppl from other tables and live update reporters gathered around the table at this point and ppl are gasping in shock and disapproval. the dealer quickly puts out a bunch of low cards on the board and as soon as the river bricks the silent slowroller suddenly goes nuts and starts yelling in celebration at the top of his lungs while i just shake my head and stand up to leave. the old guy reaches across the table to shake my hand right after. obviously i refuse. instead i shake the hand of every other player at the table before i leave. a fitting end to a trainwreck negative six fig series. ket is sad
