First CC Freeroll

#1 11-07-2007, 8:52 PM

So, I just finished my first CC Freeroll on Bodog. 25 minutes in. Sounds great.

First hand of tourny. Limp in on button with 6♠4♠, about 6 callers.
Flop: 6♣6♥7♠ Checks around, I bet $70 (about $65 pot). 1 Caller (BB).
Turn: K♦, He leads out with pot size bet. I think of raising, but I call.
River: 9♠, He leads out with pot size bet (about $350), I call.

Me: 6-4, Trip 6's w/ K, 9 kickers.
Him: 5-8(os), straight.

Down to about $990 from that. Get a table change. Few hands in...

Limp in with 9-10 off suit towards the cut off.
Flop: AQJ, person next to me leads out with min. bet, I bump it to $80. Call.
Turn: 8, he checks, I bet a little less then pot. He check raises double that.
River: 4, he goes all-in, I have him covered by 300. I call.

Me: 9-10, straight 8910JQ.
Him: K-10, broadway.

Final pot I get involved with, blinds 15-30. I have KK, raise to 120 (I only have 330 behind). 4 callers, not what I wanted.

Flop: 910Q (2 clubs). I push all-in, man behind me reraises for about 250 more. No callers.
Turn: Doesn't matter
River: Doesn't matter

Me: K-K, Pair of Kings
Him: A-A, Pair of Aces

Nice way to start the freerolls! Haha. Oh well, still going strong in $500 Guaranteed. Good luck all.

I was also in this one today, and it was my first. I did ok, hit some lucky spots, and managed to make the final table (then promptly proceeded to bust out first). It was fun though, looking forward to the next one!

My 2nd one I've played. Got rivered by a Q to bust me out in 12th or 13th, I don't remember. Anyways, cashed in both CC Freerolls so far

Congrats guys. I had a friend playing too, he was very big chip stack since the beginning (up to about 11k with 75 & 50 people remaining). He played like an absolute donkey, bluffing pots, overbetting with nothing.. ended up going from 11k to 5k to 0 in 3 hands and busted out 22nd. Too bad.

Never play the bottom end of a straight unless everyone checks. And then I'll just check it down
