First ever PLO round at the Hoser Hut (rotating orbits of 0.25/0.50 NLH and PLO).

Down $100 before I had a chance to Warm up my chair (NLH). Yippee.

Just don't play that shit among socially related people...

You wouldn't know it if Phil Helmuth Rieguy was mic'd up, but really great game last night (despite the bubble-guts) w/ a full lineup of 9 degens/chippers! Thanks for the gracious hosting and foreplay sir.

Some true Texas degeneracy in those showdowns. I bet this was a fun game!

0.5/1E in the Athenian Owl Club tonight, featuring the original cash set.
Both the frac and the top value chip have been Non-Denominated, to absorb inflation and international instability.

So, the non-denominated frac currently plays as 0.5 (probably 2E in the future) and the non-denominated top-value chip plays as 50E, (probably 100E in the future).

Two orbits of TXNLHE, one orbit of dealer's choice between Pineapple and Cuckoo bird (3 hole cards dealt, one discarded upon seeing the flop, the remaining 2 hole cards both obligatory to use).

In for 250E, out for 770E. Tipped the dealer 50E (beyond her basic 10E per player remuneration) and paid another 50E for the losers' food as the host (winners pay their portion).

Game was a few days ago, for some reason it took me this long to post.

These new fracs really tie the set together.

This is the final hand of the night from Sunday nights game. I’m pretty sure this would have gone viral if we’d had it recorded for YouTube or whatever the kids watch. lol

I only have one pic without players faces, so I apologize. But, for privacy reasons, you’ll have to just read for the story.

Here’s the set up. Main villain is on the button for the hand in question, but before I get into that, he’s played the past 3 hands blind until the river and only peaks if facing a raise north of $100. He won all three hands. He never looked at any until showdown. Flipped over the nut straight on the first showdown. The nut full house on the second. The third was a stinker. He had 9/7o and only made a set.

So, this is the fourth hand of his blind antics and I’ve had enough. I don’t mind the winning, but c’mon! Even he’s annoyed, because he didn’t get paid off on any of those hands in any significant fashion. Decent pots, but could have made more, obviously.

Ok, he’s on the button. Straddles to $5, per usual. SB calls, BB calls, UTG raises to $17, I’m UTG+1 and reraise with 78 to $55. Folds around to the button who calls blind, folds back around to UTG who calls.

Flop comes 598. UTG checks, I check, Button bets $35 blind. UTG calls and I raise to $135. Main villain tanks on whether or not he should peak at his cards, but decides to call blind. UTG jams for $385. I should point out that UTG has taken a beating and it was his first night ever playing at my game. I have no earthly clue what the button has, neither does he, but no matter what he has, he has some equity and I’d like UTG to have better odds of winning the pot. I also am very much aware that if I call, the main villain is looking at his cards and may squeeze me out. I don’t want to have to decide whether or not to call an all in with middle pair and a gut buster draw. My best guess is UTG is on a flush draw, likely with the A. No way our blind villain has another monster! So, let’s just get him out of here and if I double up UTG, fine by me. I jam for another $1,600 effective to main villain.

He is not happy. How can you re-jam? You know I haven’t even seen a card? But, he’s Canadian, so he’s smiling and apologizing for taking too long while being unhappy. (my comment to you @Pippa made me remember I hadn’t posted this story lol) The tanking is going on forever and he’s asking if he can peek at his cards. We are practically begging him to look at this point. He keeps saying how epic and nuts would it be to call your shove without looking?!! He’s not wrong…. Epic!!! Ok, he’s decided even he isn’t this big a degen and says, UTG is all in anyway, if he’s cool with it, what if you show me a card and I flip one of my cards? UTG and I enthusiastically agree. I let him pick, he chooses the 7. He now assumes I have flopped the nut straight. Perfect. Fold please. I’m already sensing what’s about to go down. Just fn fold!!! He flips a card of his (please be shit, please be shit) and it’s the A. Holy shit balls. First, really? Second, wtf does UTG have? UTG shows me, I show him, he has A6 and had just decided he was ready to make his night much better or just get it over with he explains quietly. The A already is a massive killer to him.

Tanking continues as the volume in the room is now at a fever pitch. Is his second card a diamond? Based on what I’ve been watching, I’m now convinced it’s a diamond. Probably the fn 9♦! lol He asks if Kaleb (my son) can peak and tell him the suit. We agree, although in hindsight I shouldn’t have, but also…it wouldn’t have made a damn bit of difference knowing the villain. He was calling anyway at this point. If we’d played our hands normally, it could have played out pretty similarly. I’m not sure I jam on the flop, but based on my mood, probably. Anyway, Kaleb blurts out “it’s a diamond!” Villain is now in disbelief and my head is now in my hands. He’s muttering “I don’t see how I don’t make the call, here. I mean, how sick would this be?”

He says he will call if we both agree to run it twice. Fuck dude…it won’t matter if we run it 14 times based on how you’re running, so sure. Whatever. Let’s go! He calls and we run it twice. First turn is the A. UTG isn’t happy. He asks for a 7. I agree, a 7 would be just fine. I’m not going to be greedy. You can have the main pot, I just want a potion of the side, please. lol Rivers the K, which actually made me semi happy. The second board is sure mine. He’s down to one A, two Kings and what turned out to be seven diamonds after people announce what diamonds were folded. Second board sweat? No. 9 on the turn and we are drawing dead.

Took me a while to remember I only bought in for $300 and had rolled up my stack to $3k before punting a third of it away prior to the last hand. So, although I lost a big pot, I only lost $300 of my money and the story is easily worth ten times that. But, man what a wild finish!!!

Biggest take away…May need to keep recruiting. Every week we blow out someone with our craziness. This felt like maybe the first and last time we see our camera shy friend. lol. I hope not. He’s a really cool dude and fit in perfectly with our vibe.

The game has gotten such a reputation around the region, I legit got a story (via screenshots of a text conversation) where one of my guys was trying to recruit some buddies at another game to come give us a shot and one of them asks, “is that the game with the ultra sic set up, but the 14 year old who will stack you over and over?” My buddy says, yes. “Is he playing?” Again, yes dude. He lives there. It’s his dad’s game and the main reason it exists is for him to be able to play with his kid, so yeah…he’s always playing. “I can’t play, then. I’ve heard that game is full of crushers and that’s bad enough. But, if I get stacked by a kid repeatedly…yeah, I’m just out”.

Admitting you’re scared to play a 14 year old was hilarious. My only response was, he’s 15 now. Is that any better?

Fuck em’. We keep finding replacements. But, it’s hilarious how many pros have come to my game bragging about their career winnings, a few even showed me pics of them winning piles of cash at some nice tournaments. The story is always the same. The more they talk, the fewer sessions they play. As Mikey would have said, “they just can’t handle the swings”. They have to deal with 3-4 of us who will do the dumbest shit ever, like play blind for piles and a kid who’s smart enough to play disciplined and pounce when we get too cute.

Our game certainly feels like it belongs in Texas. lol

Those Murphy's $1s!

 

[Jeevansluck]

Ran another cash game the other night! Was a blast, and I let some TP stamps run around!

All in all, was a great game! Got all 4 racks of $5s in play. Nearly considered felting a $25, but never did.

In for $120, out for $236

We've had a bunch of fun games and sadly I'm waay behind on updating!

SO satisfying, fun and validating to actually get some of these chips we chase on the table!

Chips also appear to be happier campers getting off the shelf and into play

Tropicana, Caesars and Scandia sure seem happy!

Awesome sets! Those Tropicanas are so pretty.
The last time we had 11 turned into an absolute madhouse of action and rebuys. Fun but extremely chaotic.

LOL yeah, sometimes becomes less about the poker and more about the fun - we've tried to flex a bit just to get everybody in and we usually end up with less

i joke but 11 or even 12 handed works fine, and his table can physically fit us no problem (aside from the obvious cupholder issues). best game in MA right here folks!

Wow, this Caesars set could be the best house mold set I have seen to date in this forum. Awesome. If only you had a couple more racks of $25s and $100s ……
