Oh man, such drama tonight at Live.
I'm grinding a few hours, up a hundo and change, then comes this hand.
We have JdQd in the hole and call a $25 raise by a tight player.
The flop comes 9d10dkh giving us the stone cold nuts with the straight flush redraws! I check in first position to the original raiser. There are three of us in the pot. She raises to $75, and the 3rd player snap shoves his $250 all in! I shove my $600 all in and the original raiser snap calls!
The original raiser has KKK for a set of Kings, and the 3rd player has JhQh to also have the nuts!
Also, there is a $50k bad beat jackpot so we have two streets to hit the King of Diamonds to give her quads and me the straight flush to hit it!
The turn? You guessed it, a 9 giving her the boat and the river was the 3 of hearts, so she triples up as I miss all my outs.
I was steaming over that, and it got worse.
I have aces in the hole in the bb and everyone folds to the sb. I say let's play for the high hand (they were $750 tonight every half hour, so juicy) and he agrees. We check it down and I hit Aces full of Tens for high hand (high hand was aces full of eights at the time) OR SO I THOUGHT. YOU know what I forgot?! You need $10 in the pot to hit the high hand, so all I had to do to qualify is bet $5 and say "I need help" and it would have qualified, but I forgot about that. The fact that I forgot that along with the -$400 on the prior hand had me STEAMING. Thankfully someone hit Aces over Kings to win the high hand for that period, so my Aces over Tens f*** up wouldn't have won, so I didn't f*** myself out of $750.
THEN, we have 3s5s in the hole and call a raise....I forgot the exact details but I hit the 4 of Spades on the River to hit the straight flush with two minutes left in the period! IT held, so $750 for Stevieboy!
Ground back a few hundred in addition to that to finish up $618 in 8.75 hours.
Not too shabby, as Adam Sandler would say. Very thankful, but it could have been SO MUCH MORE....2 streets to hit $25k, doh!
Good sesh, and as always stay blessed and let's get the next one, crew.
Phew!
