Coolered in Today’s $1,500 No-Limit Hold’em
February 3, 2010 by admin · Leave a Comment
Just a quick update on the $1,500 donkament I played this afternoon. Just like all these events people are going to stack off with a ton of hands.
Unfortunately for me my opponent today “stacked off” with the stone nuts.
I lost a big pot early in the day, folding a baby flush on a paired board after some serious strength from the other player in the hand.
On my last hand I called a raise to 300 with T-7 in the big blind and the flop came down Q-9-6. I checked and he bet out just 200! I called and an eight hit the turn. It looked like a great card but …
I checked, he bet 500, I check-raised to 1,500 and he shoved. I made the call and he turned over … J-T obv.
I don’t think there’s any way to get away from it, especially in a short event like these $1,500’s.
I’ll be back on the felt soon so make sure to check back for more updates!
