Big Slick saves the day



Posted Thu Aug 12, 2004 2:30 pm GMT by Dr_Pablo
im sittin some NL 25 over at empirepoker, and lets just say im having a poor run at it. one of my worst showings in weeks, im down to 8 bucks after 2 hours of tight play. This is the point when i get angry, cause weve all been there, on the edge of our seat waiting for our cards coming, knowing we will be put all in, before this i had lost a few ten dollar tournies as well, so im down on the day, tilted pretty much. the blinds keep coming closer and closer to eat my stack, then the BB hits me, and whatd ya know i have Big Slick! i raise it to a dollar, and have one put me all in, hes been bullying me all night, so i call. Its a bad call, but i was at the end of my rope. two others call, the flop comes, and i hit nothing, the turn comes, i hit nothing, the river comes, i hit nothing. at this point im already getting my credit card out, when the pot glides over to my name. 4 callers, and none of us hit one single card, i won with an ace high, after that i rebuilt and finished up 90 on the night, Big slick saved me!

Good job, you got lucky there but rock on.

I've only won a hand once with just high card. it wasnt much but I had counted it as lost money unitl the dealer pushed it to me.
