Colded

Last night, I got colded. That's my new shorthand for getting cold decked.

This is an excerpt from my April 10, 2013 post. Last night, I got colded twice, once in both tournaments I entered. The first time, I had pocket queens; the second, pocket kings. In both cases, I was up against an opponent with rockets, and my stack was on life support when the hands ended. The saving grace in the second tournament was that I'd already made the money :-)

Colded

Last night, I got colded. That's my new shorthand for getting cold decked. On hand 37, I was dealt ace five suited, and hit the nut flush on the turn. I ended up going all in, and was all prepared to quit with a nice profit for the night when the cold front hit. I lost to a flopped four of a kind, threes (two were in the flop). The only good thing about the hand was that the winner started it with less chips than I did. I lost $18,200; the pot was worth $61,900. If I'd had any sense, I would have realized right then it wasn't my night and quit. However, I didn't, and played another 40 hands. I finally hit the felt when my two pair of queens (my hole cards) and sixes lost to three of a kind, sixes.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 77 hands and saw flop:
 - 6 out of 8 times while in big blind (75%)
 - 7 out of 12 times while in small blind (58%)
 - 24 out of 57 times in other positions (42%)
 - a total of 37 out of 77 (48%)
 Pots won at showdown - 5 of 13 (38%)
 Pots won without showdown - 4
