November 18, 2007, 3PM: Played 3 hours, 24 minutes, Lost $105.00 at Full Tilt
$165 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (255th out of 2616 Players)
This was the FTOPS Event #15, $150 +15 NLH Knockout event with 100K guarenteed, the prize pool was actually $313,920.
After busting out I looked at the players entered (2616)and my place (255). *Normally top 10% of the feild would get paid, this annoyed me.
I did get 2 bounties so took of some of the damage.
I've VERY VERY happy and dissapointed in my play today.
More so, One tiny mistake cost me.
I was playing 100% great. Fully concentrating on this one game. Taking notes on players, that is, paying attention to how they play, what they play and when they play. This was like night and day when making my decisions. Times where had I been "blind" I would have folded when I should have raised or when I would have normally gone all in but the correct play was to fold.
I am upset with my mistake because it was with the donkey hand AJ for one.. two I called too much.
I was nipping blinds all tourney after realizing who is weak etc. At times they play back and depending on who and for how much I would make my decision. Well, I raise this one agro's blind from 1K to 3K, my stack is 25K, after the raise I have 22K, he moves all in for 13K, costing me 10K more, the pot has now about 7K in it. I can do two things:
Fold and have 23K left
Call and have either 13K left if I lose or 40K if I win.
Average stack is about 22K at this time. We are about 100 players from the money and blinds are 500/1000 with an ante of 125*(I think)
Problem is, I called like an asshole. He has JJ and I double him up and cripple myself. Now I don't have any more chips to work with since the blinds are so high.
I'm a fucking short stack now sitting on defense. A target for all the bigger stacks when it is my Big Blind and helpless when I'm stuck in blind battle.
All that time waiting around building my short stack into a machine has been wasted. I was just getting into the rythem of playing back in spots, nipping blinds, blind vs blind play and now I'm nuetralized, frozen. Only to sit and wait for a real hand or risk my tourney life on a stone cold move. All because I was a donk and clicked call with AJ.
Later I pick up 99, move in mid position and get called by KK.
This mistake makes me only more hungry to play better. It has been too long since I really gave a tournament my 100% concentration.

$15 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (7th out of 52 Players)
Top 6 get seats, came up one short. Was annoyed with the big stack play.
They kept giving these two other shorter stacks than me passes in the blinds.

$0.10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (45th out of 3600 Players)
$1,000 Guarantee event, $00.10 buy in. With re-buys and add-on.
Little did I know though that the rebuys where .50 cents and not .10 cents, so I was moving all in everyhand taking double rebuys, for what I thought was .20 a pot, but really it was 5xs that for $1 each. I noticed this when a player pointed it out, by then I was in $16 instead of $3 like I had thought.
It was fun though ramming and jamming. Had a monster stack before break as everyone paid me off after 10 minutes of going all in EVERYHAND.
Then I got hungry, wanted to shower and leave.. stack was only 50 when average was 140K, so I played like an asshole. Shit, 1st is only $300, so it didn't bother me as much to give up.

$26 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (90th out of 766 Players)
Right there again, pay top 72. About 100 from the money I hit the no card wall and the "If this guy touches his chips raise him".
Had only one oppportunity to make a stand with 55 and 2800 in chips with blinds of 250/500. Ran into JJ but still. Had I folded that I would have had <2 rounds left.
Needed to take a larger risk when my stack was 6K and blinds were 100/200

$5.50 Buy-In Omaha Hi-Lo Tournament (115th out of 151 Players)
These limit omaha8 tourneys are tough. You start with 1500 in chips. If you don't win your 1st hand of 3 you are struggling bad. Plus there is so much heat on the pots if you miss you are crippled.

$11 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (1,362nd out of 2438 Players)
Wow, doing great.. feeling good.
Tried something I generally don't do. Limp UTG with KK.
4 people call and the flop comes down 972, SB bets out pot, BB folds and I call, lose all the other players.
The turn is a 3, now he checks. I bet about half pot, he check raises all-in. I hesitate for a second. At best he has two pair, no way do I put this guy on a set for betting out on the flop. IF he does have 2 pair I have 8 outs to catch back up. I only have 800 chips left and starring at a pot of 8K. He played his hand backwards though if it is a monster. So I call, he shows 8T straight draw! Nails it on the river, but damn, played that thing aggressivly.
