I haven't being playing much poker at all lately, apart from one little session where I dropped $5k online. For the most part, I have been sorting out or working on prop bets for the summer.
I've been playing a lot of golf in preparation for my game with Mr Spillane in Vegas and am playing some half decent stuff, which has given me a bit of confidence that I can scoop the $2k.
I have a tennis bet with O'Dea for him to play me off his left hand (that's his bad hand, well I hope it is), so I'm getting out and playing a bit of tennis as well.
Did a side bet with Jason Tompkins, if he FT's one of his seven WSOP events, I have to ship him $4k, if we both FT a WSOP event, it's a push and if he doesn't FT at all, I ship $500.
Me and the DOC are sorting out a no booze weight loss bet for the month of June. When I did really well in Vegas last time I didn't booze and was working out every day, so I want to do the same again. There's talk of a few of the other lads coming in, which could make for a really juicy pot. When we sort it out, I will post the details.
Trying to keep my live eye in and played a bit in the Fitz, where the Medic got me with the best slow roll ever. I slow rolled him in a big pot a year ago. He promised revenge.
We were both all in, in a three way pot, a €5k main pot and €1k side pot between me and him. The board reads
, I show top two and keep the other two cards concealed, the other guy shows dry aces and Medic exposes
and keeps one concealed.
The turn is an
giving the Medic the nut straight but me a back door flush draw. Out comes the
. The bare aces folds, saying he can't beat a straight, I decide not to slow roll and very slowly exposed the
to go with my
for the flush.
Medic gives a bit of speech about how sick it is. The dealer is pushing the €6k pot my way, a bit of a crowd had gathered. Medic slowly turns over his remaining card, which is the
giving him a
hi flush.
The crowd lets out a loud cheer, all that can be heard above the cheer is Medic roaring I waited a year to get you Johnny Boy, and to be fair, get me he did. It was the best roll I have ever seen, hopefully I can learn from it and use it in the future.
