Bad Beat
Hi all
Yesterday I got my 500$ in free chips and I played some tournaments, doing good but going out in the 2nd third of the tournament twice... Then I hit the Cash Game and was doing ok, until I hit a cold deck - just watching the others play and it was a table like Mike told us, we will encounter in Vegas ... People raising with nothing and huge pots ...
When I got decent cards again I had a go on the table and was back to my starting chips quite fast ... then I lost one huge pot on the river, but I did not care cause I knew this guy will lose that chips again ... which he did, not!
Three people in the game, I've got AK of clubs and the board comes 6,7,10 of clubs ... this guys start raising again and I check raise them on the river (some heart) - then the river comes 9 of clubs and I think great - one of this guys has hit a flush too and will bet it ... which he did ... After the betting he shows me 7 of hearts, 8 of clubs - a straight flush ... half my stack is gone!!!
A couple of minutes later ... I am in late position and got K,Q suited (diamonds) ... the board comes K of clubs, Queens of Clubs, Queen of hearts - full house, completed on the flop ...
This one guy bets it and I call him ... river comes ... 9 of clubs ... does not scare me - he has got his flush but I got my full house ... then something strange happens, this guy check raises me ... I think about it and decide that he cannot have a straight flush again - I put him on a flush or trips ... River comes trash and he bets again ... he tried to bet people out of pots before so I raise and am All in ...
We turn over the cards and he shows me J,10 clubs ... second straight flush in a couple of minutes ... I am beat! The dealer almost apologies for me and I call it a day ...
Afterwards Margret and me have some real nice dinner with the $100 in free meal vouchers (actually it costs $120, but we wanted to celebrate the trip) - afterwards we play some roulette and win some bucks ... but the bb still hurts.
I just come from breakfast with the other players and they all seem to be quite nice ... my last chance to come into the tourney is, if one of them misses the ride to the Dome at 12:15 ... won't happen ... but I'll qualify properly anyway ...
Cheers

Unlucky, dude. Very unlucky ... I think the first straight flush - as unlucky as it was - was forseeable with those 4 of clubs. The second one - "Ooopsy Daisy" one might say!
Have a safe trip back home.
Cheers!
Hi Gernot,
quite amazing what you're up to lately - from now on I will call you 'Cincinnati Kid'!
All the best!
