After a few bad days where I couldnt even crack the money in the 5.50 sit n gos, I came back today. Played all day, hopefully I'll get some sleep at work tonight. Cashed in 5 of 7 sng's with only one first. Took a flyer and played in the 36 + 3 sattelite to the Big sunday tourney which I crapped out in 30th (seats to the top 9). Then decided to end the day with a 4.40 180 man, since I didn't have the time for a big field MTT. Played pretty well, but got handicapped with about 50 to go when I had q2 in the BB, saw the flop for free, hit top pair (not thriled with my kicker), checked around and tripped up on the turn. Thought I'd throw a value bet on the river but like an idiot didn't factor in that with a board of jq8qT that the other guy in the pot might have limped in middle position with AK. Sure enough he did and I lost a lot of chips. Could have went broke, but the guy was nice and didn't raise me on the river. Anywho, treaded water until about 30 left and decided I'd chuck 'em in with a6, got lucky and drew out on AT. Very next hand against the same guy I got AKc and shoved on his mini raise (QQ) tripped up the aces and I was off. Ended up going out third when my AT bumped against the chip leaders KJ. Hit my ace, he turned a straight, gg me. Good day overall, and it feels good to be back.
Heres a couple tourneys that I thought I played well in for your enjoyment including the 180 3rd place today.
