Season 4 BPC Head's Up Shoot Out
 
Well, I took her down for the 2nd win this season, and i play pretty good while getting some nice cards. I made up my mind that i would try to avoid getting into big pot situations unless i was looking at the nuts (or close to it).

2nd Game...I beat Adam
3rd Game...I beat Sanders for the Championship
 
1st: ME
2nd: Sanders

$15 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (3rd out of 10 Players)

BPC Club Championship
 
Played really went for much of the night, and then lost a huge hand on a bluff vs Adam. I feel sick about the night...i should've really walked away with it last night. Also, missed out on a HUGE pot when i folded after the flop with a pair, and would've won a giant pot if i would've called a measly 150 in chips.
 
Really having a tough season, and i really can't believe it's been 3 seasons and i've only won 3 tournaments.

$7 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (4th out of 7 Players)

BPC Sniper Tourney
 
Basically played a hand vs Sell for about 75% of my chips in basically a 60/40 situation (pre-flop), and Matt ended up catching a card to take my chips. Stupid me. Matt went on to win the tourney.
 
1) Sell
2) Jared

BPC Heads-Up Shoot Out 3
 
Man, just can't do crap in these Heads-Up Tourneys...so frustrating. Played first against Riley, and lost...i had 2 pair off the flop, and he flopped trips. Such terrible luck. Then i had to play Sell, and i just couldn't buy a hand...and could only buy super small pots. Lost on a big bluff at the end, and he had a straight (off the flop). What's a man to do? Terrible showing for me, and it looks as if Adam will win the Tourney, making it back-to-back weeks he's won...putting me further behind in the points championship.
 
Oh well...have to do well next tourney i guess.

$7 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (2nd out of 7 Players)

BPC Big Slick Tourney
 
Played very well, and got some nice hands during the night...Adam and i were the final 2 players, and he went all in with A7suited, and i called with a AK. He caught his 7 on the turn, and then took a large chip lead...i only had a big blind left, so i soon lost. Heartbreaking.
 
1)Adam
2)ME
3)Sell

BPC Season 3 Opener
 
Had a big chip lead most of the night, and started to play many pots and play foolishly...lost the chip lead, and only finished 3rd. Very disappointing night for me.

2)Adam
3)ME

Free-Roll No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (2nd out of 5 Players)

Season 2 BPC Tourney of Champions
 
1st Paul
2nd ME
3rd Sell
4th Bob
5th Adam
 
Played pretty good all night, but the last hand of the night Sell went all in (in the dark), Paul called him, and with AK suited, i decided it was a good time to go all-in too.
Well, Paul had KK and i couldn't catch an A, so that was the end of the story for me.
Very tough loss to swallow.
