No low hand qualified


Not a great starting hand but with 3 people in the pot already, and three baby cards, I couldn't resist the opportunity to try and hit a low for a possible double up.

As I said earlier, that was the second one I have hit this week. The first occured during the Blogger Big Game. I rivered aces full of kings (holding AA in the hole) on a KxxKA board. My opponent in the hand had AK for kings full and I got about as lucky as you possibly can.

I've made an OK start to BBT4. I've played three events, scored points in all three, cashed in two and final tabled one. I'd sure like to win one so I don't have to rely on points to get into the TOC.

  1. NZ,

    Only way into the TOC is to win. Points just get you stuff at the end, not a TOC seat.

  2. Don't they make a bigger HH font down under?

    I remarked to Snuffy last night about midnight, before end of second hour, that the CL had 10 BB. You need to take a chance and get lucky somewhere, or maybe just not get unlucky, nice job. Luckbox.

  3. I rarely, if ever play this game, but since it is a split game how does this make sense:

    "Not a great starting hand but with 3 people in the pot already, and three baby cards, I couldn't resist the opportunity to try and hit a low for a possible double up."

    Confused.

  4. Schaubs, for me to double up with a low the other three players would have to call. If I put in 2400 and get three callers that means there's 9600 in the pot. If I can win the low I'll get 4800 which is twice as much as I started the hand with. Even if only two of them call I can still win ~3600.

    The top point earner each month will get one of the WSOP prelim packages.
