December 24, 2007, 3PM: Played 3 hours, Made $175.00 at Limelight
$2 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

Nothing too significant.  Had about $160, have AK not suited in early position.  I decide to play slow and button raises to $40 with no other raisers.  I decide to go over to the top to $85, leaving me with about $75 left.  Player on button immediately goes all in.  So there's about $170 in pot and I'm getting 2 1/2 on money.  I'm putting him on AA or KK, anything less I'm insta-calling.  I think about it for a while and let it go.  The table is floored that I would make the raise and then not call the additional $75.  Of course, if I lose that hand, I'm leaving since I'd be stuck $320 in about 2 hours.  I still think it's the right play.  Best case, I'm 50/50, worse case I'm looking at 3 outs.  Luckily, I proceed to hit three straight big hands (2 straights, and then AA vs KK) and get all money back and then some.

December 24, 2007, 12AM: Played 2 hours, 30 minutes, Made $1.34 at Full Tilt
$1 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (69th out of 1170 Players)

Into the early stages of the money and I just had KhTs in the BB...4 limps and I check.  Flop was T93 all hearts.  I lead out for half the pot and one person calls.  Turn is the 2h and I check/call a small bet.  river is the 8s and I check/fold to his shove.  I don't know for sure if this was the right fold but its hard to put him on a hand that doesn't include the Ah.  I still have 10x so I am hoping to double and get back in it though.
 
Also, GG to my brother who won 3 90-person play money tourneys alreaady today and is in first with 3 to go in a 124 person tourney.  Also congrats to tnnstud of OPL who finished 3rd in the FTP Sunday Mulligan for 23k (I think).

Second 100 MTTs

On October 21st I finished my 100th multi-table tournament and now, exactly 2 months later, I finished my 200th tournament yesterday.
 
The average field size for my second 100 tournaments was 523, down a couple hundred from the first set because I played more $2 tourneys as oppposed to $1 tourneys.  I met my goal of 8 final tables.  I won one tournament (goal was 3).  I had 4 top three's missing my goal by one.  I had 28 cashes which was down from 30 last set and off of my goal by 5.  Part of this is because the $1 tournaments I played in the first set paid a higher percentage of the field than the $2 tourneys I played more of this time.  Lastly I cashed for $352 with $136 being profit (down from the $525/$331 of my first set).  This thanks in most part to my win in the Ferguson for $252 during my first 100 tournaments.
 
I am pretty happy with my stats but know that I made some fairly big mistakes while in position to make a top three run.  I also think that I gave up on several tourneys and shoved too light just to double up.  I wanna try to play every tournament as best I can during the next 100.  I also want to mix in several more $5 tourneys now that my bankroll is bigger.

December 20, 2007, 1AM: Played 3 hours, 30 minutes, Made $67.41 at Full Tilt
$2 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (1st out of 129 Players)

was short for almost the whole tourney and stole blinds to stay alive til i played a funky hand to double up with 22 left (18 paid).  then i called a raise OOP against a avg. stack with JJ and the flop came A high, I checked, he checked...turn was a J and i led into it hopin he was slowplaying an A (there were three diamonds on board also) and he folded but it was still a nice pot to get me into the top 10.  its the second break now though and blinds are about to be 250-500 and i have 11k and we are one from the money so hopefully the bubble bursts soon so i still have a stack left to push toward the final table.
 
Just made a great call with A high on the turn and he hit a 6 outter to make me short stack with 7 left.
 
3/3, my favorite place to be, i get 3rd in this damn tourney every night it feels like.
 
well i feel like i played very well all tourney except heads up, i didn't play terrible but i think i got impatient in a few spots.  i lost a coin flip to get down to 24k (vs his 160k) and doubled with J4 v his QQ (oops) then won with A8 v 96 to take a slight chip lead, next hand i had AK and he had A3, it got in and i held.  I was very very lucky but i will take it.

December 20, 2007, 1AM: Played 1 hour, 30 minutes, Made $130.00 at UB
$1 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

This session was basically just one pot. I raised to 7 with Kings in a massive limp. 2 people called me, the flop was 37J all diamonds. I didn't have a diamond. the first guy checked, I bet 20, the other guy folded, the SB caller called 20. THe turn was an offsuit 2. He leads out mashing pot for like 60, I shoved for 81, he called with 55 with the 5d wth...misses on river so I win a huge pot. Beyond that, just played good small pot poker by taking down numerous pots with c-bets and bets in position after checks with medium pairs.

I took my 1.75 and turned it into 2.39 which is a .64 cent profit playing.5-.10 limit on b-dog.  I played tight aggressive and it paid off.  I will build this stack by playing beginner sngs on b-dog til I can venture off into other areas of the poker world.  I followed that up by finishing 2nd in a 2.20 beginner sng on b-dog.  I should have won.  My opponent pushed and claimed he wanted a flipament.  I believed him and I was right.  He had 5-8 and I had a6.  He flopped an 8.  That crippled me and he went on to win.  I played perfect for the most part.  I will win more often than not.  roll up to 5.19 now.  MOVIN ON UP! I decided to invest 4.40 in 2 beginner sngs and finished out of the money in both.  Both times with AK once vs aces and once vs 99.  God I hate AK! Well down to .79 cents now.  micro donkament cash game I guess!

December 18, 2007, 11AM: Played 2 hours, Made $23.30 at Poker Stars
$11.70 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (3rd out of 47 Players)

I am an idiot.. got down to 3 players left.  Top 2 get seats, or $215.  I get 3rd which is 3rd and sucks.  3rd has about <2k in chips, I have 5k and 1st has 8k.  We get in a 3 handed pot, I have 26 in bb with flop of 236, I bet out and big stack call, on the turn is x and bet again and he calls, the river is a 2 and big stack moves all in.  Instead of folding and fighting off the 3rd player I call like a moron and loose to 33, a set on the flop.  What a waste.
 
Quick update, since I was in a rush I did not have time to digest what was really happening.. Which was, 1) I was in a rush to eat dinner as we were late and 2)I was on semi-tilt as the short stack sucked out twice, once on big stack and not too long ago on me, this all affected my play.

December 16, 2007, 5PM: Played 3 hours, Lost $220.00 at Lucky Derby
$5 No-Limit Texas Hold'em

This is a $300 max buy in game now.  Bought in for the max and doubled up early w/ a lucky flop on the blind, against a guy with over $1g the whole game.  He was playing a lot of hands, betting a lot, and winning most pots by showing down the winner.  I picked up 99 from the small blind and over riased($30), got lots of callers.  Flop was 345 and I overbet($120) the pot.  He was the only caller.  At this point I put him on a pocket pair under my 9's, meaning he had a set or a draw.  The turn was a 7, and I figured the pot was big enough, so I checked.  he bet $50 and I went into the tank.  I should have layed the hand down right here.  Any underpair he has either hit a set or a stright, other than 8's, and he was way under betting for the size of the pot, and the size of his normal bets, he really wanted me to call.  Even though I put him on an underpair i called anyways, a bad call because I didn't want to give up on a big pot for a small bet.  The river brought an A, a card that could have hit him if he was bluffing with air.  he bet $100 and I called again.  He showed 6 8 off suit for the nuts and took it down.  I could hardly believe he called me with that as the second caller preflop, but my read was in the right neighborhood, and I should have saved myself $150.
 
Against the same guy I made another bad call.  I had Q 4 on the button, limped in.  Flop was QJ9.  Check to me and I bet about the size of the pot, same guy is the only caller.  Turn brings my 4, and I bet again.  he moves in almst instantly, and I call almost instantly.  If I had thought about it I should have put him on a better 2 pair or the K 10 he turned over.  As it was I was just really excited that I hit a had pretty strong and I was getting a lot of action from this guy.  I put him on a naked 10 or K on the flop, and didn't re-asses my read before shoving my last $220 in.  I should have thought it through and layed it down. 
 
After all that I rebought $100 and doubled through the same guy w/ QQ, then got up and left.
