Hey folks,
I signed up to the depositors freeroll at Poker Time. While I was waiting for it to start I had a quick game (with the biggest fish there are available in poker) and lost.
Had about 20 mins to go and £9 on my account and spotted casino. Had a little play and got it up to £40 and thought I would cash out. Min cashout is £50 :o
The game started and it was all blind stealing for no show-ers at the beginning. Got my chips up to about 2k and had a nice pocket pair of 10s so I raised and had one caller. Flop is nothing much 39J - so I bet big and this guy goes all in. I called - he showed a pair of 3s and hit a 3 on the river. Pah! I still had about 750 left and managed to get it back up to about 2.5k.
A few hands down the line I was BB and the fish that hit trip 3s raised me. I had 10 K so I called him and the flop is 9J4. He bet big, I called (I was officially a fish!) Turn is a Q - glory be. I just went all in and he called and showed KA. I knocked him out and as he left the table I said (with great relish I must add) - "That's for the 3s."
Anyway - game goes on and I have about 10k and its break time.
I decided to see if I could get my £40 up to £50. Now this being a microgaming platform, they have all the lovely microgaming slots like Mad Hatters, Loaded etc. I decided to have a go on Deck the Halls with £10. A few goes in I got the free spins and saw the screen almost full of wilds. Bearing in mind I have a 30p bet (min bet this is), I made £76 in one spin. I played for a bit longer and tried my luck on another slot for £10 but that was no good. I cashed out £80 and kept £20 on the account. A great result.....and what about the poker I hear you ask?
I continued with the game and was hanging in there. Top 40 paid and there were about 400 starters with about 51 left. Blinds were 300/600 and I was BB. Dealt QdKd and as usual my BB was raised with an all in bet. So I thought may as well call. Called and the guy had AK - now bearing in mind that my BB had been raised for the last 6 or 7 rounds I was getting mighty fed up. Sometimes you have to just say - enough is enough and go for it. So I did. Needless to say, neither of us hit and he won with this Ace high and I was out in 50th place. Not a great result but the winnings from the slots definitely made up for it.
