Shark Poker Tour Poker League

Last year our poker league paid out over $18,000 in cash.
With all our other events we paid out approx. $25,000.
These are all low buyin or freeroll events with the buyin events
having small fields of 50 or less players. Great action, great money,
without having to play for hours in tournaments. 50 player tourneys are just the right size for me.

Come on and join the Shark Army.
We have a great website and forum.

One reason why I do NOT play like Phil Ivey

One our fourm members posted this today. I had to lol. Great post!


I was in a local card room just killing time and letting my vehicle defrost a while parked down in the heated parkade when the following hand occured.

The game is $3-$6 limit Holdem. There's a Kill button but it didn't come in to play for this story.

I'm in the small blind and see I have 8s-4s. A lot of players limp and with no raises I called. The flop comes:

Jd-Jc-6h

With no spades and no hope I simply check and get ready to fold. The rest of the table seems to be afraid of the two Jacks so everyone else checks and we get a free card.

Jd-Jc-6h-Ks

Everyone checks until the dealer button who bets $6. I'm ready to fold but ever since seeing Phil Ivey muck a winning hand on TV in the 2009 WSOP I've been looking at my cards one last time before I toss the cards.

THIS TIME when I look at my hand I see Js-8s!?! I don't know where I was looking when I thought it was a 4s early on. Maybe the cute waitress distracted me?

So I have to raise, right? I raised the bet to $12 everyone folds except the dealer button who accuses me of having a King. He's been easy to read ever since I sat down so I keep quiet and he announces he can beat my kicker and calls. The river comes:

Jd-Jc-6h-Ks-2d

I'm a bit embarrassed by having misread my cards so I decided to let the guy off the hook a bit and just check. He sees this as weakness I guess and bets out $6. Normally I wouldn't try to rub it in but I felt the need to point out that I gave him a chance to get out cheap by checking, and then I raised him to $12.

It would have been interesting if he re-raised but he just called and was very unhappy when he saw my trip Jacks.

So, thanks Phil Ivey for teaching me a lesson about what to do BEFORE you muck your cards.
