Watching CatchDRiver take 1st in last night’s 8:30 mini masters was a cliffhanger!
I shamelessly took the opportunity in the stream to promote PD by letting everyone know he plays in our league.

Hey Randy–
I’m leaving on vacation April 23, returning May 7th. I’d love to play your T-Th games if you’ve moved them to 4 PM ET. I can’t play in Poker Amusement at 5 PM (PST) then play Poker Disclosure at 6:00 PM. Let me know!
Thanks!
Jan
Great Jan!
Yes, I too can’t play Poker Amusement on M W F and it’s one of the reasons I made the T Th early enuf that I could…anyway, welcome I just added your name
Thank you!! I’ll see you when I get back in May.
Looking forward to it

Won tonight’s Disclosure game. 6 made it to the table tonight, I think that might be a record for games I played in this league. We’d really love it if we could fill up a table or maybe even spill over to a second one of these nights. Maybe that will happen soon.
Here’s my highlights:
I basically turned my game with this hand:
KQo on the button. I opened to 3BB, kcorbee re-raised me to 500. I three-bet to 1300, kcorbee and SharonSmarty staying in, the pot is already huge.
The flop is absolutely perfect for me, giving me THE STONE COLD NUTS, JTA-rainbow to fill me up with Broadway. Sharon goes all-in and kcorbee and I both call. The Turn and the River are irrelevant, I take the hand and almost 9000 chips. This is one of those hands that you dream about getting, and see maybe once in a month of heavy playing, if you’re lucky. SharonSmarty eliminated, Kcorbee cut in half, me with the big stack, nearly double the next biggest. This has me set up for a good run at winning this table. It is ALWAYS a great hand when I get to eliminate @SharonSmarty
kcorbee and fransuah both played pretty well after this hand and kept things interesting. There’s a lot more poker left to play in this game, but if I had to pick the one hand where I won it, and it couldn’t be the final hand, this would be it.
I especially love this hand because you seldom see a 3-bet play on RPP, and it’s even rarer that you get 3 players to see the pot on a 3-betted prelfop action.
Somewhere in there, @Fransuah took a nice pot with this pair of Queens, taking another big chunk out of kcorbee’s big stack, moving up from being the short stack to having us all nearly balanced 3-up, which made the endgame a very interesting contest:
Sometime later, I decided quite out of character to limp in from the SB with T6s, and see what happens. kcorbee lets me in, and the flop is nice, but a little scary: 7J7, two hearts giving me a draw to a middle flush, but with a pair on the board that could have made someone a full house. No one is playing JJ here, not with no raise preflop, so I figure worst case I’m up against a random trip 7s, but probably not A7 or K7, and probably not J7, either. But really, we all limped in, I could be up against anything and I don’t really know where I’m at. I bet at the pot and get a call from kcorbee, while fransuah mucks it. The Turn brings a 2h, and my flush is made. I don’t want to take any chances of another heart hitting this board, giving an unsuited higher heart a better flush, and I don’t want to give someone holding trip 7s another card that could possibly pair the board and give them a full house. So I shove my mediocre flush, and get ready to be called, and kcorbee mucks it. I show my hand, of course, as is our custom here in the Disclosure Leauge, and she says she’s glad she folded. I don’t know what the had, but I am too. The only hand that would have called here would have had me beat, whether a higher flush, or a full boat. But it was my best chance to win the hand by getting all-in here.
And the final hand, I’m way up over fransuah, who’s been hanging tough and playing well. I’m dealt 44, and I know pairs are strong in heads-up, but I’m not the keenest on 44, if you know what I mean. Besides, fransuah is close to where he’s going to have to go all-in if he’s in any hand. I raise, hoping to discourage him from playing, but he calls, and we see a flop. 8dAhTh, a lot of cards in someone’s range that would call that raise, possible flush draws, and three overcards to my pocket pair. Not a great spot to be, but I figured playing 44 to see a flop would look something a lot like this. Fransuah shoves the rest of his stack, and I’m expecting this will double him up, but I’m not going to let him get that pot without a showdown, and so I call. He flips up J2o, and nails the Deuce on the Turn for the one hand he cold have made that would have been inferior to mine. Close final hand, a nailbiter, but I come away with all the chips at the table.

We play M, W, F at 9pm, and anyone who wants to show up and play with us is more than welcome. Fish especially. We always show the winning hand so you can see what beat you or bluffed you, and maybe it’ll help you learn to be a better player from some of the best on this site.
Don’t think we’re the best? Come on over and show us. It’ll only cost you 2500 chips to test your might.
Golf Clap 
I didn’t go all in . I called both your’s and corbee’s raises.

You called to go all-in, which is what I meant. You didn’t initiate it. But you were all-in. Bad board to have to do that on, but you were mostly all-in already, with top pair and a good kicker that put you a K away from top Straight, can’t fault you for calling there, no real choice there.
I’d like to think this league is going to survive after all somehow…always interesting competitive play that we all learn from…how could it not

I must say that I’ve learned a little bit more about Poker by Always seeing the winning Hole cards of every hand. Seems to be a game of less bluffing and more value betting. At least in the beginning of the game. lol. Friendly group of players and thanks GrandyB for making Poker Disclosure Possible.

Thanks gator I appreciate that!
I wholeheartedly agree, as long as one doesn’t come there with the intention of winning a bunch of chips (not too disappointed when they do see their 1st place winnings) I think it has the potential to teach us all how to win a bunch of chips when we are at the other tables

HU, I got destroyed in a Top Pair vs Top Pair hand, and left with just 4 chips.
Start here! Hand #519018016 · Replay Poker
Could I come back and win?
That was kinda freaky to watch…BTW pug, when I suggested reviewing hands in the forum I meant like you usually do that lotsa ppl read…nobody checks this league forum
Only two of us showed up, @GrandyB and me; I won. Monday night needs more players!
Early on, I kept getting beat. I would win occasionally, but smaller pots than I was losing. It seemed like Grandy would hit every hand, and hit better than me when I hit, most of the time. When I did hit something, he’d fold and I wouldn’t get very much. It’s tough to hide when it’s HU and you keep getting dealt rags but one of them hits the flop, and it’s good to win the hand about half the time, and the other half you get high cards that miss and his rag hits and wins.
My luck changed when I had had enough of losing hand after hand, I made hit bottom pair, 5s, and decided, you know what, **** this, I give up, and just went max bet every street, looking to mercy kill myself. The flop was all low, my opponent called, holding QQ. I had J5o, and had paired my 5, and was trying to bluff down the hand, not knowing I was up against a monster. Turn card was an Ace, and heedless of the risk or outcome, I barreled away again with another full-pot bet, and again, I get called. Well, ****, this didn’t work, I’m about to die, and I bet pot one last time, and he thinks about it, decides that his QQ isn’t good here, being just one pair and an Ace on the board, and so lays it down. I show my hand, as is the requirement for the league, and boy did I get away with that one. I’d built the pot up so much I figured he had to call, just on the basis of being pot-committed, but that last bet was too much for him. That blew the game wide open and put me in the driver’s seat. I almost felt bad.
One thing I gotta say, this play would not have worked on the average player here, who probably would have been calling any bet with as little as a pair of 7s, but Grandy is good enough to be able to lay down QQ in the face of strong aggression on every street. I have to respect that, even if it was a brazen steal this hand.
The next few hands were small pots again, but then I hit top pair with KJo, hit Jacks on the flop, J94, and put in a pot-size bet, which he called with middle pair, 9’s. He has 97, the Turn card pairs his other card, so now I bet again on my top pair, top kick, and he raises, I re-raise all in, he calls, he flips up and I see I’m doomed, only I’m not because the river pairs the board, 4’s, giving me JJ44 over his 9977, and I suck out.
That was most of the chips at the table, and a few hands later the rest of them were all mine. @GrandyB definitely takes a loss with a lot more class than I’ve been able to muster lately.
I shoulda been dead in this game, got beat in most of the hands I played, but the two biggest pots went my way, and were pretty much all that mattered. Outplayed, I tried to throw away my chips and got lucky. For once. That won’t happen again for a month or three.

It took me a while to pick my jaw up off the floor after that 1st hand you posted…I never did get my groove back after that but I still really enjoyed the game.

I ran the jacks and fours hand through my odds calculator app. I was about 80+% to win at the flop, dropped to 20-% underdog on the turn, and of course won the hand on the river. Such a roller coaster. I thought you had me for sure when I saw what you were holding on the turn. It didn’t even register what the river had done until I saw the chips slide over to me.
As evidenced by ur 1st reaction of “gg” only to be followed by “wait what”
