N 82 Wins!
Jeff and Aaron put their 1K freezeout on hold for a bit and the four of us decided to play a winner-take-all dealer’s choice freezeout for an undisclosed sum. We all started with 100 in chips and the blinds were 1/2. We could choose any PL or NL version of omaha or hold em.
Early on, Pegleg The Calling Machine stacked off in a game of 4-card PLO8 with AA89 on a 289 flop against Jeff’s 22xx (some low cards). The conclusion is that Pegleg is a huge omaha donkey (especially in split pot), although he denies it.
Soon after that, Aaron stacked off in a game of NLHE with, I think, 45dd against Jeff’s AK on a 6d Kx 7d board. I’m not sure if that is the right flop, but the important thing is that Aaron had an up-and-down and a flush draw against Jeff’s TPTK. Jeff didn’t have a diamond (I don’t think). Jeff’s hand held, and he was at around 300 chips pretty quickly.
I took control of some pots early and worked my way up to about 130-150. After hanging out in that range for awhile while I went with some version of omaha each time, I gradually managed to take down some decent pots even in Jeff’s game of choice, NLHE. The pivotal hand came during Jeff’s deal where he went with 5-card NL omaha hi (the first time he did not go with NLHE or PLHE during HU). I had AKQTX double suited and Jeff raised his button. Even though I hadn’t been gambling much, I thought Jeff was getting tired and might be in the mood to gamble. I went all in kinda out of the blue, and Jeff insta-called JXXXX with XXXX being a bunch of middle cards (terrible call). As I suspected, he was getting tired. I made kings and queens, so I won a huge pot. Jeff later doubled up his 40 chip stack in a NLHE deal when I had him 60/40 preflop, then I won a 5-card NL omaha hi hand to end it.
Ship the three buyins, thx.
