Upcoming home game tournament - August 13th
If you can be in Kansas City on August 13th, I'm hosting a home game tournament for KCPoker.org. Drop me an email or post here if you are in the area and want an invite... or register for KCPoker.org and look in the 'Home Games" forum.
No real poker since Wednesday's update - except we held a low buy-in eight-person freeze-out in Omaha this weekend with a portion of our usual crew and a few non-regulars. Top two paid, I washed out in third as a 2-1 favorite to win the hand: I raised 2x the pot (for 1/3 my stack) in to the chipleader (5-1 chiplead easy) when I flopped bottom two pair on a coordinated board (two connected cards, two suited cards). He re-raised me all-in - i put him on a OESD or the flush draw, not on trips or top two pair. I called, he caught his straight on the turn, and I was out in third. Probably could have waited to get the money in the middle with more of a lock on the hand, but I was content moving in there as a 2-1 favorite to double up. Certainly playing for the win... screw second place.
