if there ever was a match that needed a recap, this was it, i think. i'll do my best, and alf can toss in some other hands if he can remember them....
i took an early small lead, but went mindblowingly card dead and he got me down to 100 chips. but i won 2 60/40 hands as the shortstack and clawed my way to an 1800/1200 lead.
the big hand in my comeback:
i have 93d on the bb, alf raises kd6c to 100 at 25/50, i call.
flop jd6d6s. i check, he (bets small? checks? i forget), i call if he bet.
turn small diamond. i figure him for a 6 and go all in, he calls, no help on the river, and i double up to get a playable stack again.
then a lot of small pots get me to that 1800/1200 advantage and back down to exactly even.
the blinds then got to 50/100, which really was a pity considering how the game was going. we were around even when the following deciding hand happened:
i have kqs on bb, alf has kk on button. he calls, i raise to 400, he reraises to 700, i call.
flop Js Jh 6s.
i check, he goes all in for the remaining 600 (i wanted this, thinking one of my overs was good along with the flush draw), i call instantly.
turn 9d, river 2c, and i'm down to 350, to be taken out shortly thereafter.
a really, really unbelievable match, alf. much respect.
