#3 Bitcointalk Poker Series (0.05 BTC & BIG BTC Ticket sponsored by SwC Poker)

[arallmuus]

Out on 3rd  . I think I found my kryptonite. I got pocket pair of Aces, Queen, Jack and Ten but Bitmutiny got better card than mine all of the time. Dang it , I collect all those chips from you guys just to give everything away to him 

Gratz Bitmutiny for once again winning the 1st spot  , good game to everyone else

Got 3k chips in return, It is enough to cover my foolishness of losing 2k chips for the omaha game lol

Gratz @bitmutiny

Standings after 7/8 tournaments:



The players in red can't qualify for Grand Final no more, bitmutiny is already qualified. I think @arallmuus and me are already qualified as well, but not 100% sure.

Our new probably regular player and Bracelet winner @kolloh isn't too lucky until now, still no point finish, but it was close today with 11th place
My jinx-magic didn't work this time and @figmentofmyass keeps his point streak going with 9 in a row and counting.
As sadly expected, @BitcoinGirlClub ended his participation streak today and we are down to three (Betwrong, Trofo and morvillz7z).

[Globb0]

I came second again. I was so wetting myself when I was about 5x+ everyone else I dumped about 30k in a hand.


GGs everyone



Last table next week.

[Trofo]

@Globbo
You lucky bastard   I had so nice hand with 3Q and you bluffed it and managed to get the flush in the end. This was one of hardest loses for me and just in time to kick me of the final table and some points.

Sorry buddy.  
Not so much bluff as unmatured hand or something?  
All the best.

I see you are the runaway leader in Little BTC tonight. Just registered for a chance to kick your ass  
Please stay in the lead while I make my way to the final table for maximum drama and revenge points.

Edit: And I am already out. So it would have been better if I had my mouth shut. Hope you take it buddy

[morvillz7z]

bitmutiny with 4 first places already, damn man congrats! Can't say i'm/anyone is surprised though! 

5 extremely valuable points for me, moved from 9th to 5th place, a little breathing room before the final qualifier.

Even though i consider myself a tight player, i had to fold so many decent/good hands today but i fucking needed those points. i regret nothing 

Could have doubled here, folded pocket 7's vs webtricks' pocket 8's (on my left)...hand was won by Steamtyme with pair of 9's on the river.

[webtricks]

Bad exit for me today. I was in comfortable position. I get this sense of comfort whenever I have enough chips on table and active mind. Today was 'the' day and I was playing beautifully as per my rule book but then I met Globb0 on the final table and shit started turning the other way. I seriously underestimated him and thought he's calling bluffs and then tilting. But turns out he was playing really smart. I have rarely played on same table as Globb's in past, maybe that was the reason I didn't know his playing style.

9th position exit was real disappointment for me as I just finished my cup of coffee and looking for money finish.

Nevertheless, I think I need 4 more points to make to the finals. Anything above 7th position will do good for me in next tourney. And Globb beware, it won't gonna happen again. 

Congrats @bitmutiny, you are real deal bro! Some serious player.

[iv4n]

this was a tough beat for @Iv4n:



i semi-bluffed the nut flush draw the whole way, and got there on the river. then i saw him lose most of his chips on a preflop misclick a few hands later. sorry dude, shitty day!

Not my series definitely! And that was the next hand, I was writing and I wanted to minimise the window but I paid 1800 chips jack and 2! Disaster, first stronger flush, than wrong call, and I saw that ace and I went all in, but of course imagine that had 88 and he won!
Well what can I say other than "more luck next time". Congrats to winners!

Yep, no luck for me in this one. Next week I need to place to at least get some points on the board lol. Managed to snag 2nd in the main event though so ended up being a good day.

[efialtis]

Hey friends,

I am sorry I missed the last tournaments - good for you obviously...  - been very busy, many things going on and in the last days I am also having big problems with my internet...

Congrats to all of you and I hope you have had a good time, even without your nightmare! 

[webtricks]

Am I right @kolloh?

[Betwrong]

~
how many of you see your full houses flop up after you got out. ~

Well ... it wasn't like every 3 hands, but still, look what happened yesterday, when I folded pre-flop my T6o:



and like it wasn't enough for me to , I saw the turn card:



So, yeah, I kinda know how you feel, mate.


Congrats, @bitmutiny!

GG, everyone!

[Globb0]

That's a very full house, people sleeping downstairs too. 





Thanks everyone for the kind words one more game to go.

Its a thing of beauty!




Im doing it Mum  

[arallmuus]

Im doing it Mum  

3/7 point finishes for you so far, thats a great feat if you compared it with your status on the 2nd season. Now you only need a decent point finishes on the last game to secure a spot on the Grand Finale

I'll see you on the Grand Finale , goodluck 


I am still regretting my decision yesterday to check on those tournaments on swc then ended up accidentally clicking on that omaha tournament lol. Thats over $20 lost for my stupidity 

[Globb0]

Please stay in the lead while I make my way to the final table for maximum drama and revenge points.

I cant even remember the next tournament I was way too drunk. I think my new medication is messing me up suddenly.

Met my end eventually. Still fun, using all the things I have learned from you guys.



OMG I lost so much money but I now have 60 krill. So far to go its painful. Its like the conditions when you win with a free credit on betting

[kolloh]

Am I right @kolloh?

Yep, feels like it haha

[efialtis]

Hey all you pros!  

I got ahold of SwC and just wanted to make sure you are all up for it - Grand Finale next week, August 23rd? Finalists will be manually entered so you won't have to do anything, except being there and give your best.

Edit: Working on the losers finale

Sure, probably not gonna be there since I need many results to go my way but in case the stars align I am fine with that.

What about losers tournament? I would love to have that at same time as main final so I can keep one eye on the pros while chilling on the other table with my fellow losers.

No Man! Wait! It can't happen on 23rd August. I don't know how many football fans we have in our series but Champions League finale will be on 23rd August. If possible please make this tournament on 22nd. I have chances of making to the finals and I really don't wanna miss.

[Steamtyme]

Am I right @kolloh?

Yep, feels like it haha

Bahaha that's priceless. I think it's more of a learning curve for our group than anything. I still feel there is a very wide range of plays and styles that can really F'up up an otherwise solid and profitable strategy. Part of what makes it so fun to play, imo.

Sunday was not my days started with getting tilted with my App crashing a couple times early on. Then the wife had to run out unexpectedly and my children simultaneously forgot how to do anything besides breathe. Needless to say Dad's time was no longer reserved. Regained my composure to go out with Top Top Ten high board against pocket JJ's, c'est la vie.

Either way kept things interesting right up until the end. Thankfully I'll be at work for the next one so I'll be able to get some peace and quiet for the final qualifier lol.  

Catch everyone next week.

In general this a good idea, the only problem is, that non-Top3 players from Grand Final are also eligible for small final, so this doesn't work unless all Grand Final players agree to forfeit that spot.
