Have we actually met? I don't think we have, not even in passing?

I only met benny the cunt for the first time last states weekend, I recognized his name when I signed him up for the deepstack.

Having played with Timmy, I just know he won by simply driving everyone at the table insane with his incessant chatter... LOL

He didn't say a word. He got so nervous on the cash bubble he was visably shaking, i could see that from the rail. He held his head together and made some good reads and plays, I was quite proud him.

That said, he won't shut up about it now. You watch.

LMAO... All we need is him to have succeeded just once....

I am however surprised he was so nervous, he seems like such a confident player at the table!!

Update:

Played $95 tourny yesterday. Blind level of each NLH/PLO. 4K start stack, 20 min blinds.

29 runners. Top 5 paid. $870 for first down to $195 for 5th.

Was 2nd chip leader at first break with 17800. 4th chip leader on final table. Made the cash quite comfortably and became chip leader on a big pot when I knocked out 4th with a set against top 2.

2nd break we were 3 handed, 116,000 on the table, I had 59500.

The blind level after 2nd break was 1000/2000 NLH. I was getting premium start hands and getting no love at all. At the same time, the other big stack was an A.P.L. donk that refused to fold pre.

e.g. [ac jc] on the button. Raise to 6500. SB folds. Donk in BB calls.

Flop. [10d 8s 2h]. He fires 8000. I fold. He rolls [8c 2c].

Very next hand. [qd qc] in BB. Button folds. Donk calls. I raise to 6500 again. He calls.
Flop. [ad 3c 3s]. He fires 8000. I fold. He rolls [7d 3d].

It was ridiculous. In the end I sat back waiting for PLO, with the short stack (never more than 10000) still surviving. I knew I could outplay him in the PLO just had to be patient.

I waited the whole 2000/4000 PLO level for my opportunity. Last hand before 3000/6000 NLH. Still 3 handed.

BB with [qh jh 10h 2c] 30500 stack. SB Folds. Donk min-raises. I call.
(My read: definately Aces or Kings, they are the only times he has raised pre in PLO)

Flop. [qc 6h 3h] (Pot: 18000)
He bets 6000. I consider jamming but just flat.

Turn [js] (Pot:22000)
He bets 6000. I snap-jam for 16500. I'm positive on my read now. If he's lucky he might have a straight draw too. He calls.

So board so far:
[qc 6h 3h js]
I roll. Top 2 pair with Q high flush draw.
He rolls [as ks kc 5d]. Pair of Kings with a straight draws.

So he has 10 outs. The [kd], a 10, 6 or 3.

River: [kd].

Over and out. Thank you and good night.

Game over next hand when A high holds against K high.

Cashed for $325. I believe I should have won this tournament. Whether or not I would have is debateable. Still not entirely happy with my play after 2nd break though.

I love playing those, but have only found them online at FullTilt, where I dont so much like the tourney structures :(

Was he (Timmy) wearing his '100% Genuine, Imported from the US of A, White Sox Cap'? ;)
