I was dealing the table at the time, and by the turn the board read [3s Kh 10d Js]. By now there was a three way all in, for almost 300k. 2nd chip leader showed [Ks Kd] for top set, unkown [Kc Jh] for top two, and Nicoles partner showed [Ac Qs] for broadway. Poker was the winner for this hand as the river dropped the [3h] giving kings full second nuts and shipping a monster.

That was prolly the biggest hand ive dealt for a while and a memorable one for the weekend....


I remember that one Glyn. Huge hand indeed. But when the cards were turned over fopr some reason I knew a 3 was coming. I spoke to David and he said he thought the same thing too.

On a sidenote - Glyn is clearly the best dealer going around. I don't think you made any mistakes in your first session?

Would you put it in pre in NL with AQ>A10 against a blind player? That's essentially what you were doing. Except for the fact I had 4 cards to make a random hand, strongly increasing my chances of having a pair/connectors in my hand. So yes, you're ahead, very marginally.

Also, i think the whole "lol is that all" stemmed from the limp/re-raise pot by your good self. Usually that is textbook aces, that what I was expecting you to roll anyway. Isolation raising is a more foreign concept in PLO, it happens but not as often due to post-flop nature of the game, so it wasn't what I was expecting. Can't speak for the others though.

Depending on circumstances, yes..

I know, and this is what it was supposed to look like. It all started with the limp UTG. I knew you would be opening regardless of your hole cards, and I wanted to see what would happen behind me.

So, superstar, if you knew all this already, what exactly are you asking? :P You should
the expected the disappointment when you rolled that junk.

At least my junk had 9 2 in it!
