A Piece of Cake

Posted on Monday, 25 April 2011 by Poker Mutant

Cake Poker Rome Turbo 6-Max

Had 5♣5♥ and the bottom end of four to a straight but got caught by sixes that made a set.

11 minutes, 20 hands. -30BB.

This went bad quickly on the third hand when I got greedy with 6♣8♣. There were four player in for 167 each pre-flop. The flop was 3♣9♣6♥ and I bet half the pot (349) after UTG checked. HJ called, but CO raised all-in to 1,183. That forced out UTG but I called and so did HJ. Amazingly enough, I had the best had of the lot; HJ held T♠K♣ and CO had A♦Q♥. My sixes and flush draw were in the lead 7:3 over the other players. 4♥ for the turn gave me an even better lead. But the Q♠ on the river yanked it away and dropped me down to 130 chips. That was gone in another couple hands.

I bought back in but it was only marginally better.

23 minutes, 22 hands. 2 buy-ins.
