There is a first for everything

Gonna try to keep it short because i'm really tired, but i think i saw a first today. I've played MANY hands of poker and can honestly say i've never seen this one. Courtesy of bodog, here's the hand in a nutshell. Limped to the button, he had 1010, i'm in sb with 99, bb has 66, we all see the flop.....10 9 6!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What are the odds of this!!! We all spiked out set, game over for 2 of us. Another VERY dirty hand i wasn't involved in, all in pre flop KK vs JJ...flop comes 10JQ giving JJ the lead, turn is a 9 giving kk the straight, river....the 4th jack! Quads take it down! Just a very sick hand!

Went pseudo deep in a $10 rebuy, (well, the one rebuy, one add on)...down to the final 3 tables, i'm in about 22nd at this point, i pick up AK, one limper, i've got about 12bb's, so i just push all in, get called by a guy with AQ...sweet right??? wrong...Q on the turn, gg murph!! I mean, give that beat to me in the first hour please, don't do it to me after grinding for 3 plus hours, inching closer and closer to the big money, and then you do that to do...damn you pokerstars!! Although, i did hit a 1 outer on somebody after we were all in earlier in the tourny, so i guess what goes around comes around, but still, it just stings a whole lot more when it happens with only a few tables left!

Bad day at the sng's again, played 5 of them...one cash...3rd place again...on 3 seperate tables at one point, we were at the 150-300 level with 6 guys left!!!! I've never seen so many nits in my life...of course i ran into some MONSTERS because i was the only one raising ANYTHING unless they had KK or AA. That is somewhat of a problem of mine...i can't just sit there and fold fold fold fold fold playing 5 way and it KILLS me when these nits do this, and they catch me with a huge hand....very frusterating!

Won some MASSIVE pots playing .50-1 omaha8 cash games today. Flopped the wheel in one hand, and stacked a guy for a $200 plus pot when he called a huge river bet with a pair of 10's for a high and a bad low!! It may have beenthe worst call i've ever seen...i thought we were splitting the pot 100%, but no, a pair of tens, and like the 4th nut low!! Needless to say i have written down his name and will be looking for him everytime i log on to fulltilt!

It was a decent day on the whole i guess, stuck like 40 on stars, but up 150 on fulltilt.

Murph

ps what a great night for t.v!! Between the monday night game, yankees vs indians, high stakes poker AND the bachelor i've never used a remote more in one night in my entire left....i actually think i may have a blister forming on my thumb!
