RPO Event #31 Results in a Heads Up Battle
Tonight we had a Reed Poker Online Event first. Trinity and Sean played heads up since no one else sat down at the table for a $10 pot. Tonights game: Omaha High PL. The game was shorter than usual since it was HU. Outlaw took an early lead but nothing special really happened until the final hand which came eight minutes into the game. Not exactly sure what happened since I cannot confirm with my unsaved hand history. But the flop came with 88x, Trinity checks, Sean bets, Trinity just calls. Turn brings a K, Trinity checks, Sean bets, Trinity just calls again. River brings a 3, Trinity bets, Sean raises, Trinity and Sean get allin for the game. Sean has Kings full of eights. Only to find... Trinity holding the nuts with the flopped quad eights.
2nd - Sean - $0
Champion - Trinity - $10
2nd - Sean - $0
Champion - Trinity - $10

Clean Sweep This Week!
RPO Event #30
This week's events started with Tuesday night's RPO Event #30 on Full Tilt. Only 4 players played the $2+1 rebuy event. Sean took a nap and joined alittle late. All players made it to the 1st break. Soon after the end of the break Jeff was busted by Matt. Then Trinity and Sean got tangled in a hand and Sean's 66 held to bust Trinity. Matt and Sean played heads up for the $36 prize. Sean eventually took Matt down and won the event.
Reed Poker League Event #8
Event #8 had 9 players show up with a couple of no-shows. We had two newcomers join us, Billy (Matt's bro) and Donnie ("Wells Fargo"). This was by far the most agressive, fast and bizarre event so far this year. We started alittle late and still finished shortly after 10pm. Let's proceed to the brutal beats section. :)
First hand was a big one when Donnie had trip Q's to beat whatever Anthony mucked. Donnie continued his rush to win a few more hands before tangling with Matt. Matt made a big raise pre-flop and got one caller, Donnie. All the chips get into the pot after the flop and Matt's AK gets rivered by Donnie flush draw. Matt finishes in 9th place.
Moments later, Adam made a raise pre-flop and Mitch called. The money gets in here too. Adam shows J3 to lose to Mitch's J10. Adam is out in 8th place.
At this point, Mitch and Donnie have most of the chips in play. However, the weren't scared to battle each other. They were heads up and the flop came K high. Mitch shoves with AK and Donnie calls w/ AJ. Runner-runner Q10 sends Mitch to the rail in 7th place. Donnie is a massive chip leader now.
Anthony short stacked from the first hand finally shoves his last $1700 in and Aris calls. Anthony felts KQ and Aris is dominated showing KJ. Well, the flop brought a J and no Q ever came. Anthony finishes in 6th place.
Play continued 5-handed for awhile because we were close to the "bubble". Trinity looks down at JJ and makes a large raise. It folds around to Billy who calls pretty quickly. The flop comes K4x and Trinity shoves it in after the flop. Billy calls and shows K4 leaving Trinity with only two outs. No J and Trinity finishes in 5th place and pissed.
Now on the bubble, Sean looks down at 99 and raises. He gets two callers and the flop brings another 9. Donnie moves all-in and and is the shorter stack in the pot. Sean feels stregth from Billy and decides to raise. Billy folds and Sean's set beats Donnie's draw. Donnie started off on fire, but fizzled to a 4th place finish.
In the money, Sean wins another pot with a set of 9's. Then Aris and Billy get involved in a hand that had a pitiful looking flop of 8-high. Aris makes a move and moves all-in only to instacalled by Billy who shows 83 for top pair. Aris shows 62 for a draw that does not hit. Aris finishes in 3rd place for his second consecutive 3rd place finish and $60.
Heads up play begins with Billy holding a considerable chip lead over Sean. Very little folding pre-flop in this one. Eventually, Sean doubles a couple of times. A key hand was when Sean hit a straight with his weak holdings 34off to win a big pot. The last hand Sean raised pre-flop with J10 and Billy called. Flop brings a J, so Sean c-bets and Billy calls. After the turn, Sean moves all-in and gets called. Billy has K-high and no river K comes. Billy finishes in 2nd place for $90. Sean wins Event #8 and $150.
Sean's consistent cashes (5/8 events) have moved him into a tie with Adam in the POY race. Matt is in 3rd place just a few points behind.

What are the odds?
With blinds at 300/600 JJ (59%) raises to $5500 preflop and gets called by out of position K4o (22%). What the fuck!

RPO Event #29 Results - It's About Time
We had a good turn out for Hold Em Event #29 with seven players. It took at least 30 minutes before anyone would hit the rail. Jeff's went to the rail first when his pocket Jacks could not compete with Matt's flopped pair of Kings. Matt held a comfortable lead for some time only taking a big hit when he and Trinity went heads-up with a preflop raise, reraise and reraise all-in. Trinity's JJ held against Matt's AQ. Greg was the next to fall (I think at the hands of Chris). Brian, who never made it to the table, was chipped away for a 5th place finish. Sean who became short stacked pushed with A9 (I think) to be called by Trinity's AK was next to fall for a 4th place finish. Play continued with Chris, Matt and CL Trinity. Matt finished 3rd giving Trinity comfortable chip lead for heads up play with Chris (last weeks winner).
Heads-up play lasted some time with chips moving back and forth. Chris played a mean short stack getting below 1k a couple of times only to double up and build a stack back coming within about 1k matching chips with Trinity. Trinity's aggressive heads-up play paid off after 1h 50min of play. Good game and a good showing for our 29th event.
Hope to see everyone next week for our Aug game on WED Aug 15th.
**REMEMBER - Next weeks RPO Event #30 will be played on Tuesday night**
