$0.10 Pot-Limit Omaha Hi-Lo

After being stupid the first hand, I settled in and just played good starting hands. It helps if I am multi-tabling or doing something else. I don't get bored and start to play stupid.

$3 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (61st out of 487 Players)

Turbo
 
Played well and had a decent chip stack in the money but lost a critical hand with KK. I bb, utg goes all in for a bit more than the blinds. sb goes all-in for 2/3 of my stack.  He has AJ and flops 2 jacks.  Not much I can do. By this time the blinds and antes are high so I decide that my first decent hand after the next money level, I would push.  A6h and getcalled by AK. I don't improve and am done.

$3 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (25th out of 956 Players)

KO, 1,2,3,4,5
 
6 of 339 at break.  First table was loose and fast.  Took some gambles and had to get lucky once.  Once moved picked up the blinds once, then doubled + flopping bottom set vs top 2 plus an all-in.
 
17 of 107 left at second break.  Now that I have a decent stack, I am being more careful.  Also, my big hands have come on the button or in the blinds.  I have taken the smaller pots and built slowly instead of risking seeing a flop.  I know that once the money hits the chips will fly for a bit and I can pick my spots. No big money until top 5, so will be patient and pick spots while others gamble up.
 
Third break 12 of 33. Had toget lucky to stay alive. Couldn't find a hand this hour and got myself short.  Played A7d in early mid and got raised by a big stack. Called and got 2 diamonds on the flop. I pushed the rest of my stack to see a set of kings. Caught the diamond on the river.  I have to stay aggressive and trust my instincts.
 
Picked up TT in the sb with only the button raising. I push to see AA. Good tourney for me though.
