$10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (4th out of 9 Players)

doubled up early, then went totally dead. meanwhile, the whole table is back and forth like crazy, short stacks doubling up, money going in with crazy hands,big time suckouts. it took forever to knock anybody out. sb vs bb. we take a flop QJ7. he leads into me for min. i raise allin, massive overbet with my QT. he calls with J6. of course nails the 6 on the turn and another 6 on the river just for good measure. idiots.

$10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (14th out of 18 Players)

2 short stacks pushed allin ahead of me and i'm in blind with QQ, so i call. i'm up against A9o and KQ. a king come out, i dont even win a side pot. now i'm crippled. very next hand, push allin from button with KJ. bb wakes up with AA, but i river 2 pair to stay alive. wina couple pots and am back above average. bb with T8o with one limper. flop T9s7s. i check, limper bets 180 pot. i check raise to 600, he calls. turn is 6c. i push him allin, he calls with Q8s. i cant win, only tie or lose. river is a spade. this is the same guy that pushed with KQ earlier to beat my QQ. i build up my stack and he takes it all away.

$5 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (35th out of 45 Players)

lost with TT, AQ and AK. then with JJ on a ten high board, thought i was trapping, but QQ was right behind me. how many awesome hands can you get in ten minutes and lose with all of them. i think this is some kind of a record.

$5 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (15th out of 45 Players)

played real solid, waited for good spots and had an about average stack before this catastrophic hand. one crazy guy limps and the cutoff limps. i think about raising with AJ on the button, but decide against it. flop comes J high. bb leads out small, the crazy guy goes allin for most of my stack and i call. he shows QT. no pair no draw. When the money went in...this guy is an idiot. Anyway, you know the rest, turn is the miracle Q, i'm crippled and basically out.

$10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (3rd out of 18 Players)

had some big hands early to gain a chip lead. the following hand occurred. the second stack limped in early position. sb limped. i have AKh in bb. sometimes i like to just check here to disguise the strength of my hand, that way if i hit it, i get paid. flop 2QT. checks around. turn J. i bet the pot with the nuts. the 2nd stack calls. turn is 9. i lead out again and he raises. i know he made a straight, so i push him in and he calls with K2d, i win a monster pot and have half the chips on my table with 12 people left. then i basically didnt get a playable hand for an hour. did well to steal some blinds to keep my stack afloat, but the field caught up to me. with 5 people left, i raise with AKo utg. the button moves allin for alot of my stack. he was pretty aggressive, so i didnt give him credit for a monster. well he has QQ and i lose the race and a huge pot. now i have to push or fold. facing a min raise in bb with QTd, i push in for a little more and am called by JJ. flop is J42 and i begin to close the window. the turn is an ace, and the river is a miracle K for the nut strt. woohoo. now in the money, i push with A6, still on the short stack, get called by AK, and suckout a 6 to move up another pay spot. 3 handed, tried tp press my luck, and pushed with J8. got called by an ace though, and foolishly busted out.

$10 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (13th out of 45 Players)

had a decent enough stack. in bb with KQ. this guy raised from the cutoff, like had almost everytime. i had seen him fold to reraises in this situation several times, last time from me, but i opted to just call. flop 9-4-3. i lead out thinking he probably missed. he smooth calls. turn is a Q. i go allin. he calls with 9-4 hearts for 2 pair. damn. shoulda gone with my orginal read and reraised pre. damn.
