MA vs NH part VI

Some pics of the NH vs MA game part 6. Thanks everyone who attended. As usual it was a great time. We had 16 people which is nice considering 5 had to cancel at the last minute. Cash game went on until 9AM (a new basement record)! Some pics for your enjoyment (tourney only). About 5 more people arrived for the cash game (one .25/.50 NL table and one 1/2 NL table).

Dolomite128 is lovin it and shows his thumbs up approval. He would place second for the second time in our series. Good work Dolo!


Tricky always wears a Hoyt Corkins outfit for big games. He's a Texas native with a thick Texan accent ("I'm awl....EEEEN"). You could almost hear the cowboy movie whistle when he arrived. We played our last hands at 9:01am.


I love ribs!


For some reason JoseRios (left smiley) and I (right smiley) always get seated next to each other. Early in the tourney I mucked my cards before realizing I was the big blind. I had to post the BB after the muck and people were laughing. I announce that "I'm going to get that 400 back in the next hand" only to wake up to Aces in the next hand. JoseRios raises to me and I go all in trying to sell a steam from the previous muck and JoseRios called with JJ. Unfortunately the only paint to hit the board was a Jack. Those J's would soon come back to haunt him later when JoseRios tries to buy blinds with a 7-4 bluff and gets a call when Dolo wakes up to Jacks. Hypnotoad (left red shirt) would eventually take the tournament down.


The catered smoker was sweet. The ribs and pulled pork came out DEEEELICIOUS.
