I fired up some SNGs early on in the day and for some reason didn't play any more after finishing a few sets. Pretty happy with where I finished, the 7th place was when I got Kings in on a T-8-3 flop against pocket threes.
In the MTTs I played, the day wasn't going too well. I played a few $5 MTTs and donked out of them, and in the $11 rebuy I played early on got it in with Aces preflop to lose to Tens on a Ten high board. The pot would have seen me with a top 5 chipstack too with 48 left and a pretty slow structure. =[
Then later I decided to fire up the $11 deepstack as it was one of the few low staked buyin tournaments where you start with 3000 chips, as the rest are 1500. Managed to get pretty deep in this. Got down to the last 14 with blinds at 2500/5000 ante 500 and it folds round to me in the small blind with Ace Four and a stack of 60,000. I decide this is good enough to shove against the big blind so stuck it in. However he woke up with AK, and despite me flopping a four card flush I was to be gone in 14th =[ . I was pretty dissapointed but managed to recover the $40 I spent in the $11 rebuy earlier and take my days profit upto $130.
Played the $30 6max shootout MiniFTOPs event too where I lost in the first round, raising on the button with Ace King to be reshipped by the big blind with his sixes. I made the call and lost the flip. =[
Decided to chill out for the rest of the day and played COD:MW2 & watched The Mentalist, which i'm loving at the moment. Recommended by my Pokerisk mentor Matt Adams on his blog (http://cursey09.blogspot.com/), got through 21 episodes now in four days.
Right, i'm off to play some poker, got off to an OK start so far with a second in my first game and just bubbled one.
Thanks for reading and glglglgl,
