Quad Queens

In Media, Passion for Poker, Personal Results, Poker Lists, WSOP on July 10, 2009 at 7:56 pm

Just a quick post that seemed to want to be recorded. I had Quad Queens for the first time ever yesterday. As is often the case with these rare hands there was little action and even if you do get any, because of the unfamiliar situation, your lack of experience with the hand can impair the way you play it. But hey that’s poker.

Anyway I’m working on the next master list for the 2005 WSOP Main Event. Once I’ve watched it and it’s completed I’ll post it again here. Personally I’m trying not to cringe at the amount of money I’ve lost this week. I’ve had a great week of poker followed by a very devastating one for my tiny bankroll. But again that’s poker. I am glad that this is the first time this has happened in over 3 months, so can’t complain really.

Good luck at the tables! (although you may not want my luck this week heh)

WSOP 2006 Main Event Free Video Archive

Hi Everyone,

My first offering here comes at the expense of a 50 FTP tournament to win a $26 satellite token, all in and out within 5 minutes, stupid move because I was distracted and not thinking, as is sometimes is the way with poker. (I’ve got to remember how much I played to get the chance to buy in, it’s not a freeroll heh!)

Anyway if you now go to the ‘Media‘ Section of this blog above, you will start to see the 2006 WSOP Main Event YouTube Master List. I’ve spent the last month and some watching World Series of Poker Main Events (2006-2008 so far) I found watching on YouTube fine except for all the searching, different and incomplete versions as well as inconsistently titled episode ‘parts’. So I’ve started compiling my master list, linking to YouTube to the versions I’ve found to work the Master List. This way you can open up each part in order without having to search a single word on YouTube.

This is just one of thing I’ve be obsessively compiling on this blog. I intend now as I go through each WSOP (or any other poker tournament I may find of interest) and I will list them as I watch. This makes the ‘cataloguing’ easier to do as it’s only  ‘a bit at a time’ and I can do it ahead of each episode, so it makes the process of watching easier for me too :)

Anyway, time to wind down for the night (still steaming a bit after that 50 freeroll). However I made over $11 on a ring game in 40 minutes (and I was down $8 at one point) thanks to a pair of pocket 9′s that held up winning me a pot of over $36; the most I’ve made recently as I’ve been timid and playing penny poker instead of dollar poker. So can’t complain over all for one night’s work.

Anyway enjoy watching the WSOP 2006 Main Event. I won’t spoil it for you by telling you who won, for those who don’t know :)
