Another early exit

I almost didn’t make it to the WWdN tourney tonight. The oldest mini-mook had a choir concert, but I was able to call Mrs. Mookie and have her sign me up right before the start.

Couldn’t even make the first break and I can’t blame anyone or anything but me. I was about 15 minutes late and found myself sitting next to Waffles (who took one to the junk and busted early) but still had plenty of chips and caught AK 3 or 4 times and won a couple pots with preflop re-raises. Awhile later I got AK again and played it badly against Jestocost and lost some chips.

I ended up busting out 52nd (out of 68, yea I suck) when I limped in late position with AJo after Derek limped in EP. On a flop of A Q 9 rainbow, we ended up getting all in. (He bet the pot on the flop and I thought he had a weaker ace so I re-raised, pot-committing myself, he then put me all in). No weaker ace for Derek as he had AQ and I was done.

Right now they are down to 2 tables and jjok, Amy, Matt and Sox among others are still alive.

After reading about the rake-free site World Poker Exchange from people like Trip and Fishy, I decided to drop a few pennies in there and try it out. I haven’t played much other than one table of $10NL and it was nice as I was able to run my $10 up to $34 in less than an hour. There wasn’t a lot of traffic on the site as they only had about 1,000 players on, but I will play some more to see how soft the games really are. I looked at alot of their guaranteed tourneys that were running and WPX had to kick in money for almost every one – nice overlay. More to come on this later…

Don’t forget about The Mookie tourney tomorrow night on Pokerstars. Last week there were 39 players and I know someday we will break the 46 player mark. Surflexus is still running hot, he just may be the first to 3-peat…we’ll see.

Also, I’m thinking about posting about a bet I have with Mrs. Mookie, maybe later tonight or tomorrow.

That’s all for now…

  1. I think I went out right after you when I convinced myself that a big bet on an AxxA board meant no A and called off my stack with TT. Bleh. Things only got worse from there.

    Good playing with you and definitely let me know when you get the September home game schedule together. I think I’ll be in Austin Sept. 12-15, with the 12th likely being my clearest night.

  2. I will let you know about the schedule in Sept. sometime in August.
