chips a recipe for a quick exit. First hand , a guy in the cut
off limps, i have AdKs in the bb and raise 3.5x. He calls. Flop
comes K-9d-3d. I bet he raises, i call. Turn comes a 4,
I check he bets again and I call. River comes the 4d. I check
again, and he pushes all in. So much for him slowing down,
tho his bet on the turn looked, weak. The only hands he should have
really are KX diamonds, 3-3, or may be k-9. Betting a weak
king doesnt make a lot of sense. But its a 1500 event. So i call,
he has KJ, phew i double up first hand. Slow play a few more
hands, and up to 15k (starting stack3k). After that i get
nothing and everything goes backward. AK against 6-4 os
holds up hours later and AK against a7 and im up to 25k
at the end of day 1 and in the money !
Day 2 i dont get much, kj holds up agaisnt 9s, knock out a
small stack win a pot, and im up to 70k at average. Tho
once again, i dont seem to pick up any opportunities to
steal or pick up the antes, or re-raise, perhaps im blind.
Down to 40 i have to steal with j-8 etc, and finally i get
caught moving in with 7-6 agaisnt 10-10 and bust out
in 68th. Not bad , and i survived as along as possible whilst
trying to get on a rush that didnt eventuate.
Folding another hand - i think this is where
i folded aq to the early pos raise and short stack allin.
Which was correct, but early stack had 66 and and short
stack aj , and hit an ace, doh !
went to capital grill the night b4, and had a big juicy
steak, vodka cranberries and other beverages. Great
way to wind down after a night of poker.
