October 9, 2007, 8PM: Played 3 hours, 9 minutes at Poker Stars
$30 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (24th out of 456 Players)

Played well ... except for 1 hand towards end. 
 
KO hand: AQ rasied 3xs to 3600. (32K), button called.  BB raised 3xs to 11,200.  I think and push in for 32k.  He had AA .....
 
Logic #1: He was using squeeze play.  Maybe ....
But, not likely with a stack of 43k
 
Logic #2: He actually has a big hand.  FOLD!
 
lesson learn: when in doubt, fold esp with 30k stack, lots of poker left to play to wait for better spot.
 
Analysis: (1)4:1 dog vs AK (2) 50-50 pair, or (3) DOMINATED vs QQ,KK,AA. 
 
BAD CALL !!

$3 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (99th out of 2646 Players)

had good chance in this tourney .... but donked it away!
 
KO hand: 33
Limped: flop comes, 10,6,4.  I bet out half pot.  Get called.  next card 2.  I bet half , get reraised.  I call .....
 
Wtf??!!!
 
Shameful ..... always manage to find a way to donk off chips.  Opp had Q,10.  Makes sense .... limped hand
 
Remedy next time: Raise pf to weed out Garbage hands, or check fold ..... any other play is WAY TOO RISKY!
