Time of match: 31 minutes

The match started out slowly with a lot of small pots. I took the first significant lead, but gave it back. In fact there were several lead changes in the match. I bluffed a few and made a few. I tried to keep the pots small on his button and raised almost every time on my button. I started out check-raising a lot with any piece of the flop and sometimes without, but he was catching on to me and I had to conceed most out of position pots after that, unless I had a strong hand. This image came in handy on the hand that changed the momentum of the whole match. He had a pretty good lead when I called his small raise with Jx, flop was JJT with 2 diamonds. I check-raised, which may have been suspicious, but I had done it many times before. I checked the blank turn and he checked behind. I pushed all-in one the river for around the pot size, and he deliberated and called with a ten.

I had a nice lead, but gilbertology was not done fighting. We each took a few jabs and the match was over when I called his raise with the Krablar, flopped K76, check check. Turn was an 8, I bet half pot I belive and he called. River was a 3, giving me 2 pair so I bet small to get paid off, he pushed with A9 for a missed straight, and the match was over. It was a very good game.

your fruit basket is on the way.

you're paying people off with fruit baskets? damn it. i guess i'll stop offering money.

gg sloshr, you were probably the best or at least most unpredictable played I faced. Had to guess what you had a lot of the time including that JJ10 hand. I called because I thought you may have been on a draw and it would've ended the match. In retrospect I'm not sure I should've called that all-in for 500 but I'd say it was an ok call giving the way the hand played out. We did battle back and forth for a good amount of time, but during the last hand even tho blinds were big I definitely should have just folded the river despite only having a few hundred left.
Since you're undefeated and a Live at the Bike player, I wonder why team CC Riders captain XX hasn't played you more? Lol jk Ben

Scott, way to go! Our team MVP, with a perfect 3-0 record. Including a victory over the so-called "Kid Poker."





PS It was decided to evenly split our schedule as we all contributed to the entry fee. I like to win, don't get me wrong, but moreover I joined the league for fun because I love FCP (hear that Bob?) and Daniel is a great player as well as individual. The bonus payouts were just that, a bonus, and the camaraderie and ribaldry more than make up for our not-so-excellent team record.

BTW, you just got your snapper whipped sonny boy.

Way to go Scott! Congratulations! This is awesome. Woo Hoo!
