Poker Weekend
Done two tournaments this weekend gone, 100 freezeout at Gutshot and the 50 rebuy at Casino.Unfortunately didn't place in either. I played well I felt in both which is good I guess cos it means there is less leaks in my game then I thought, course not making a final in either was rather dissappointing.
The Gutshot tourney was good structure, nice buy in and around 75 runners. I started relatively well, $4800 at first break when the starting count is $4000. Then got moved onto another table, I played my normal game (perhaps a little looser then usual cos of the structure) but was unfortunate in an incident that my friends will know well. I raised in late to $1100 with blinds $200/$400 and the BB moved all in. I had AJos, had been raising in late alot and when I looked at him I felt sure I had him (even with a weak holding like AJ ) so I called for the additional $3200 which was like 1/2 my stack at the time, but the dealer didn't hear me! Thats right , to rub it in the opponent really was on the come, he had J7os! Oh well.
Then when antes were up to $250-$500 I had lost a few allins where I called a short stack, to name 2- AQ vs 99 and AK Q10s,he had live cards I guess. Then one of my friends in the tourney got moved next to me, we both playing short stacks and moving in quite frequently .
He moved in , and I found AJ, I called in a shot. He has A6suited, and we split when board is flush. So we still short stacked, then I lose AK to 10 J, and bust out finally when my push in mid with A 10 os runs into the BB who calls with AQ.Out in like 28th. Aelred, the guy who split the pot with me went onto come 3rd, congratulations mape!
The 50 rebuy, I was very tired honestly, been travelling past 2 days and just got home. Thought I'd do it cos i made the final two weeks runnning and wanted to see if I could do it a 3rd time. I still played quite well, maybe my C- game, and came in at a respectable 17th/85. When my A8os raise in late was re raised, I ended up committed with 3.3-1 on my money against 10 10. I hit an Ace but he runnered a flush, cant complain hes ahead.
Not much else to say really about this tourney, I made a good call against a guy with AQ on a board of J 6 6 , but that was about it. Pretty much played my hands and position.
Last night I decided to give an online tourney a shot, doing 2 at once , the 15k at whill and the 10k $99 rebuy on VC, won the Vc one bagging $4,000. Its nice to be able to play both online and Live, prefer live but I know I can still do well online too. I may be doing either the 250 at gutshot this weekend or the 100 rebuy that is much hyped up at Nottingham Casino. We'll see though, either one I do or even both, I really am planning on a final table again . Back to work eh?
