HAMMERth Place
Posted on February 2, 2005
I went out in 72nd place in tonights WPBT event. A total of 151 players entered for the biggest event so far. I would up at my first table with Dr. Pauly and definitely had the most hammer showings in history. Before I was moved the hammer was shown for about a 6-6 record. The Dr. had the most notable when he picked up the hammer on the button. The cutoff had AA and the big blind had KK. They were all-in pre-flop. The flop came down with two 7s and the hammer took out the two best hands at the same time. He even ended up with a full house on the end.
I didn’t get any real exciting hands that I need to recap. I had quite a few pocket pair, but either didn’t get any play back or didn’t hit anything. CJ from Up4Poker took me out when I tried to pick off his steal from the button. I had A♥5♥ in the small blind. He raised it up to 3x the BB and I then doubled it. He called and the flop came down with two clubs and a queen. I was pot committed at this point so I pushed with an inside straight draw and my ace as outs or hoping he would fold. He made an easy call with Q♣T♣. When I think about it, I should have pushed all-in pre-flop instead of just doubling his bet. I may have gotten him to fold, but I think it was a pretty easy call for him to make calling what I did bet. At least I lost to a blogger.
I have to say that the list of people now on the rail shows a lot of familiar names I recognize from blogs, so I’d bet there is a very strong showing by the readers. I just hope they don’t take the crown and finally win won of these things. GO BLOGGERS!
I played well and had a good time. That’s all I could hope for…besides a showing in the money of course.
It turns out that a blogger did win the tournament. Congrats to on_thg! Go read his recap.
