A Win at the PM
Well, its just the $125 nightly with 5 tables. So no big deal. And the quality of the play is just atrocious. Its like, I know all the players that I know and I know how they play. The ones I don't know can't play for shit. So it seems pretty easy. Just try not to get unlucky. You get 4000 chips to start, and they made the levels 20 min and added an ante. All good. They still pay the whole final table though which just blows. If I win this tourney, I want at least $2K in my pocket. And if I come in 9th, I really don't care about getting my money back.
Second hand I get red KK. The CO raises and I reraise from the BB. He calls. Flop comes A-high, all clubs. I bet, he raises, I muck face up. I'm soooooo goooood.
I play a lot of hands, but people fold all the time. I only show good hands. Its a joke. Despite this, its easy to screw up. A really bad woman player limps in early position with blinds at 150-300. I raise from the button with ATo, she calls. Flop comes A-6-4 and she bets 1000. WTF? I raise and she pushes and I realize too late that I have like 4-1 to call. Yech. She has A6o and cuts me down a lot. But who just calls a raise in EP with A6 ?? WTF??
Eventually a guy raises and I'm short and I push with 66. He has JJ and the poker gods smile on me and I spike a 6. I call a push with 33 and beat AJ. I get to the final table.
First hand its raised to me and I look down at AA. I massage the pot and the guy commits preflop. He has KQs and flops two Q's. A few hands later I get AA again, this time all in against the bad lady player. She has T8s. Nice. I get up cause I don't want to watch her suck out. Sure enough, when I get back she has made a str8 and I'm short again.
By this time there are 7 players left, and the chip leader says "The call me Mr. Chop- I'm willing to make a deal. How bout I take $1000?" LOL. First place is $1600, 2nd is $870. This guy wants more than 2nd place money with 7 people left. I laugh at him. He inspires me.
I pick up KK and double through him. I pick up AA and knock him out. I pick up QQ and they hold up against the BLP's 72o. We get 3 handed. I call a raise with 67cc. The flop comes 8c9hKc-- I have six million outs twice. The guy pushes. I call. He has no pair and a gutshot???? I pick up a 6 on the turn which is good enough.
I get HU with Randy L. who is really the only player at the FT that I had any respect for and would be willing to chop with. I outchip him a lot and tell him there really isn't any deal that makes sense for him. Despite this, I take $1450 and call it a night. Yee haw. Bring on the WSOP! Whoot!
