BengalszoneBilly Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I enjoy watching, but I can't hold a candle to those players! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R-U-D-I Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I've played maybe a dozen tourneys. Played some on-line. Never made a deposit, but there are sites that will give you 5 or 10 bucks to start and I've won some free rolls on sites. Quickly blew it all though. All my big wins have come against buddies. Would play every day if I could, but hence work, wife and kids take a priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bengalboomer7 Posted June 13, 2005 Report Share Posted June 13, 2005 I reallly like to play, but I'm having trouble finding guys to consistently play with. Plus the guys that I've been playing with will go all in on a pair of dueces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABengalsFan09 Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I play some, my uncle is a pro and currently playing in all of the WSOP events in Las Vegas. He has some financial backers for the Main Event too! I'm not too bad, but I don't get to play as often as he does. I love the tourneys though...

ArmyBengal Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 A bunch of guys I work with and some of their friends play every couple of weeks. We play no limit hold'em tournaments with a $30 buy in. We typically have 20 guys show, so we are talking about a $600 pot split between the top 3. I have fared pretty well there and have played in a few tourneys. Sometimes in the money, sometimes not. I love playing though. It's alot of fun for me. I'm trying to teach my wife, so she will come along to play instead of giving me a hard time about it.WHODEY !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jditty47 Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 with my friends we do quickstyle tournies so that blinds go up every 15 min. 20 dollar buyin, we get in about 2-3 games a night when we play which is about every couple weeks or so. oh and about 8-12 ppl are there usually.

Myself and about 6 of my other buddies do the same sort of thing every month. $40 buy ins for the first 2 hours only, though. Recently at my bachelor party we went to Ceaser's Riverboat in Indiana and I lost my ARSE!! It was a blast though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jditty47 Posted June 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 rebuy's are cool up to 1 time or a set time limit. i think im gonna start doing the small live tournies at pechanga casino out here. they are 25$ to enter and theres usually about 250 ppl....top 9 place, 1200$ or more to the winner with 250 ppl it would be like 2500$.

San Antonio Bengal Posted June 29, 2005 Report Share Posted June 29, 2005 A friend of mine was playing in a tournament and was doing quite well and then he ran into a crazy hand. I think he had K-J and the flop came up J-J-K. He makes a good bet and gets called and then a 10 comes up. He bets again and gets reraised and then all sorts of money starts flying into the pot. He's already got a full house. I don't remember what the river turned out to be. There's a possibility of a straight with the K-J-10 sitting out there and the possibility of a flush as well. No one can have four of a kind because he's got a J in his hand and there are two out on the table. He's thinking he's home free and the crazy betting finally resolves itselft with an all-in and an immediate call. Dude he was playing against had A-Q suited and made a freakin' royal flush!! My friend was depressed for quite some time after than hand..... kept mumbling something about the odds of royal flush.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
