Isn't 777 meant to be lucky in China? (I used to work extensively in China)

More irony is that the biggest selling power tool I used to write instruction manuals for in my last job was the 777 drill. [:O]

Ok, the only thing to comment on here is that I could easily have checked this and allowed him to keep firing and win a mid size pot. I do, after all, have a monster hand and wouldn't want to lose my customer.

But remember the raise I made on the flop in the last hand I posted. Well I am 100% convinced he will have remembered this raise too. So I chose to do exactly the same 'move' to spark his memory!

And the rest, as they say, is history.

I hope you have all been entertained with the stupidity, the haphazardness, (the missing of an hour sat out 'cos I forgot I was in), the aggression, the luck, the rise in seriousness, the thought processes, the frustration, the excitement and thrill, but ultimately the glory of this epic event.

I thank you all again for the support given and please excuse me if I call any of you in the future with the mighty 83. You will understand why!

Seeing him turn over the K2 was akin to seeing Kara Scott naked for the first time. Such a thing of beauty! [:D][:D]

ive enjoyed it too fella.a rare insight into a brilliant poker mind.

and thats just my own comments! yours were good too.pmsl.well done mate.if you win it tomorrow i'll be even more impressed.

Never take one missed draw or ul hand into the next one.They are independant of each other and unconnected,play each one as a brand new hand.
