A question of karma
Another no limit session with the bloggers last night. Biggest, and possibly only pot I won went as follows:
Pauly ($27.25)
Helixx ($32.5)
UTG+2 ($28.2)
MP1 ($33.45)
MP2 ($40.94)
MP3 ($8.3)
SirFWALGMan ($40.3)
Hero ($15)
Iggy ($35.4)
BB ($28.7)
Preflop: Hero is Button with 7c, 2h.
Pauly raises to $3, Helixx calls $3, 5 folds, Hero calls $3, 1 fold, BB raises to $5.5, Pauly calls $2.50, Helixx calls $2.50, Hero raises to $15 (All-In), BB calls $9.50, Pauly folds, Helixx calls $9.50.
Flop: ($50.75) 7d, 8c, 4c (3 players, 1 all-in)
BB bets $13.7 (All-In), Helixx folds.
Turn: ($64.45) Td (2 players, 2 all-in)
River: ($64.45) 4h (2 players, 2 all-in)
Final Pot: $64.45
Main Pot: $50.75, won by Hero.
Pot 2: $13.70, returned to BB.
BB has Qs As (one pair, fours).
Hero has 7c 2h (two pair, sevens and fours).
Well if you believe in karma, I lost most of these winnings to Iggy, who went all in with a board pair on the flop (two sevens, wouldn't you know?) and counterfeited/beat my two pair on the river. Oh, the humanity.
I then proceeded to lose big pots to Pauly and SirFWALGMan and paid off a number of other bloggers with better hands.
I think I ended the night down five buy-ins. Karma's a bitch. I might also want to reconsider drinking lots of whiskey while playing no limit. Nah.

I've been greatly looking forward to the prospect of getting my new PC, installing Party, and hunting down a blogger table. It's due to arrive by Wednesday.
Coincidentally, I fly out of town for two and a half weeks Wednesday night. So I guess I'll have to wait.

These games are considerably -EV. Then again, so are the 2/4 Badbeat Jackpot tables. Just cleared the bonus and barely came out ahead. Then I played some NL and O8 with the bloggers and *poof*, I'm withdrawing a few cents less than I put in two nights ago.
