Few Pics From the cardroom on Halloween
06/11/11 - Tough Grinding Session
I slowly turned £40 into £259 over the space of 3-4 hours then this hand took place:
All table limps I’m utg with TT 10 handed.
Flop comes:
Td-8c-6d
I check call £7 after asking this guy how much he was playing(£224).
My thinking is he has either air/straight draw or flush draw. Villan is Chinese player who can play good but will commit to a made hand not thinking of folding. Eg limped pot 10 handed, he would stack off with 2s3s fairly deep on Xs-Xs-Xs-Xc-Xd.
We go to the turn heads up and the turn is 8s giving us:
Td-8c-6d-8s
Check, Check.
River is the 4d giving is a final board of:
Td-8c-6d-8s-4d
I lead for £27, a slight overbet into the pot. My thinking here is he ships higher flush draw and raises other hands as a bluff a a small % of the time.
I get raised £58 a bet of £85 total on the river. I think a very small % of the time he has Quads and here his range is:
T8/68/84/66/44/79/57 and all the flushes.
88.
I can narrow the range down somewhat as he is raising a diamond. So now we put the range down to:
T8/68/66/44/AdXd/KdXd (Ahead of).
88(Behind).
So we beat maybe 6 hands that raise but defiantly 5 hands with the action on this hand up until the river lead by me. Were behind one hand which is very rare to see in this spot.
08/11/11 - Tesco Fuel Station
I filled my car up today after driving around on almost fumes for a few days. My car holds about 60-65 litres of fuel from a bone dry tank. I fuelled up 59.63 Litres of Diesel @ 137.9p Per Litre for £82.23p.
I had a coupon for 5p off a litre, so I saved £2.95p bringing my fuel bill down to £79.28p. Not much change from a ton.
I’m saving up for a smaller more economical car, at the moment I’m driving a 1905cc Turbo Diesel. Thinking of a Citroën C1. Bog standard I think the front of the car looks nice but the rear looks awful. I really don’t care anyway, but just to show you, the appearance of anything can be changed.
