Crossbar Challenge

Friday's Lucky 15 successfully fell into the category of crossbar challenge as once again what could have been a nice bag of sand ended up a disappointing Lady Godiva. One winner, two seconds and a third.

My final table fever on the poker seems to have ended also, with three complete misses in the last eight days. I have played like a bit of an arse though to be honest making mistakes in the first two and trying to bluff calling stations in the last. I did also get rivered for a £700 pot in 5 card PLO, holing As2sJhQhJd on a flop of JsTs2h. Hitting the flop this hard I wanted to keep a couple of the 6 to flop interested beyond it and led out for £10 into a £24 pot; 4 callers was more than I anticipated but 6c on the turn was probably as safe as it gets. This time I bet £30 into the £64 pot, which gets called in one spot then pot reraised in another for £130 more; folded to me I'm allin for another £130 on top. The £30 caller gets out of the way and reluctantly the re-potter calls with TTQ9x. Still a great spot for me as although he is open-ended the K gives me Broadway, so he's down to three eights (8s gives me the nut flush) and one ten. Of course the dealer goes the the most painful way and stick the case ten on the river. OUCH THAT HURT!!!!!

If I was in the middle of a bad run that might have sent me under, but hey as they say, whoever they are - THATS POKER!!!

No bets today from me, I've been through the cards and can't get excited about anything.
