3/29: Bitcointalk Private Poker Tournament #5 @ Sportsbet.io - 40 mBTC GTD Prize

[Steamtyme]

GG guys that was a fairly wild final table. Super slow at times then big action at others. Not sure how bad it got I tried to keep myself on sitting out when things got crazy here at work.

At one point I was in a pit 15 feet underground, shortly after I was up a 60 foot ladder unplugging a bucket elevator.

I had 2 real good get there's I remember I think they may have both been with 77 the one was against Iv4n who had JJ.

Real cool spot was me and betwrong both with AK taking out elfiatis.

Again GG all. Thanks Steve from sportsbet for the tournament.

Can't play number 2 though, to crazy at work right now.

Congratulations for your win mate - well done! Even though I dont like you calling it a cool spot when taking me out, haha. Well, to be honest, A8s wasnt a hand to go all in with against you two in that situation but hey, who cares.

This was lots of fun guys and of course thanks to sportsbet for hosting us.

Nb. We will now "work" on organizing some kind of "bitcointalk poker series" with yahoo - stay tuned!

I think I finished 7th here not 8 since fuzzyx been out first before me, correct me if I'm wrong. Anyways, 7th or 8th we haven't get some payouts. That was an epic comeback for Steamtyme, GG!

How about the other tourney been setup for 6pm UTC has it been played?

Oops, sorry. Then I must have made a mistake. I corrected the error in the list. Thank you for pointing that out. 

The other tournament was not played. There were too few registrations.

I remember the first tournament I played, it was the same finale, Steamytime, Betwrong and me. Steamytime was last, and like now he survived two all ins: 1. I had AQ he had KJ, I think we saw K, and he won. 2. I had AK he was 55, he won again, make comeback and won the tournament.

This time was the same, JJ against his 77, and all the way to the last card he got straight! Unbeliavble!

Congrats Steamytime and Betwrong on one more awesome game! See you next time!

[Betwrong]

Yet again we had a lovely tournament there!

Congrats, Steamtyme, on winning the tournament! At one point, an hour and a half after the start, your chip stack was almost the smallest  around



and yet you managed to win in the end. My hat's off to you, mate. Good job!

Here's how the game finished for me:



Not the best board for my pocket Jacks, huh?

GG, everyone!

It looks like our tournament is getting bigger each time. Regarding the prize pool, it was definitely the case yesterday, thanks to Sportsbet.io.

Keep the feedback coming too guys.. I see some glitches are being found, we will report back to our supplier so they can improve.. thanks

Speaking of glitches.

It looked like we had 25 entrants, not 19.



But after counting all the chips at the final table:

102,913 + 87,400 + 59,687 = 250,000

I realized that it's the re-buys is what was counted as new entrants. So, in fact, we had 19 players and 6 re-buys.


Thanks again to everyone for participating! And thanks to Sportsbet.io for adding to the prize pool!

Looking forward to the next tournament.

How about next Sunday?

Tournament was fun .

Just to give some feedback , it would be really nice  if whenever someone wrote on the chat to get a bubble on top of the player who wrote with the message for example .   It's pretty difficult to keep the table chat on , as it goes on top of the call/check/raise buttons etc.

Lol cool was probably the wrong word - I think interesting suits it better.

You probably were feeling a touch pot committed and were getting decent odds on a call.  Either way GG can't wait for the next one.

good game, guys. i was on zero sleep and actually fell asleep during the game and started blinding out. my sleep schedule has been horrible for these games lately. woke up short stacked and shoved 44 into AJ, and villain hit the board. oh well! i didn't feel up to re-entering.....

Thanks. I was wondering what happened to you lol.  You showed up on my table for a bit and noticed you were sitting out so I assumed it was another late night sleep in lol; guess I was lose to right.
I fell asleep in a tournament one time I was 5 out of 120 or something woke up in the morning to having blinded out in 15th or 18th something.

Yet again we had a lovely tournament there!

Thanks. I definitely had a lot of ups and downs I remember trying for my first double up and it winding up being a split pot but I missed why. I definitely got lucky in a couple spots and was on the right side of a few flips.

As always you played a solid game.  Looking forward to the next tournament. I am available next weekend and will do a screencapture of the gameplay again.

What would you do with a password for a tourney that is clearly over? Read a title man.

Maybe we should start locking up these tournament topics few days after they are played out. There is really not much use for them and sooner or later someone will come along and bump them.
