2 UBOC final table bubbles the same day...

that's exactly what I just did. What an accomplishment, I'm very proud of myself, lol.
 Today I barely played anything outside the UB events; was looking forward to the PLO $215 1r1a. I consider myself a very competent PLO player, and by the end of the day I had my 5th PLO major final table bubble. FTOPS 109r, SCOOP 500 1r1a, SCOOP 500, and 2 UBOC ones, one of them in the last series. One day I'll ship one... I hope.
 In event #10, a $530 buy in, 250K guaranteed, I was top 3 from 100 left down to 12. Then I got assigned an awful table draw, between 2 very competent and though players, and to make things easier they were both the chip leaders. I went card dead for awhile, and every time I tried something I got 3/bet'd...with only 2 exceptions: twice I opened UTG with AKss, and those were the only times I got flatted being OOP. Both turned into 4 way pots, bricked the flops, and had to lay down.
At the end I lost a big flip with KJcc vs 88, went down to 2 BB's, managed to comeback to 14, and busted when I shoved 6-7hh into the tightest player at the table...who snapped K8cc and held.

Really looking forward to the 2K High Roller event this coming Sunday. I will not play a full schedule that day, so I can focus on that table.

Other than that, it was a very slow day in the SnG department, and my VPP count is at 42.5K.
I have a quiz question for those of you that enjoy the math part of the game. It is possible to be 99.4% favorite in a hand after the flop with just 1 pair? Think about it. I asked AJKHoosier and Herschelw, and they both thought 98% would be tops.
I leave it there 
Take care everybody, tomorrow more

  1. I think 99.75 is possible...

    something like AdAh vs Ac2h on a king, nine, 6, all hearts board.

  2. actually if you make that the 2 of clubs in the villain's hand instead of the 2 of hearts, then he's even slimmer drawing only to perfect - perfect which I believe is 99.9+ or 2500-1.

  3. I was talking about 1 pair but with unpaired hole cards. Somehting like A8os on a 2-5-K board.

    If we do have a pair on the hole 99.5% seems a lot easier to achieve...

  4. What about AhKh vs Ad3c on a Kc9h6h board. We are 99.9% fav in that spot.
