September 20, 2007, 2PM: Played 1 hour, 30 minutes, Made $102.00 at Big Daddy's
$20 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (1st out of 26 Players)

We split four ways.
 
First hand I get pocket aces and hit a boat on the flop.  Trapped the guy in and doubled up.  Played a few hands here and there, and got some more chips.
 
Second table I busted a few players after hitting two pair on the flop to really chip me up for the final table.
 
At the final table, I just skated along until we made the money.  Everyone was pretty close to even, if someone double up they would have a good chip lead.
 
I look down at QQ.  The guy before me moves all in for one more chip then me.  I get a good read off of him after verbalizing a few things and call.  He shows 1010.  And, as well as I have been running, he spikes a ten to win the pot.  I have one chip left and the blinds are 2 chips/ 4 chips.
 
I ask if anyone wanted to chop, and told them if they don't they will be in trouble! (:
 
So I pick my spots and get all the way up to 26 chips...yah baby! Karma is a good thing sometimes. 
 
The blinds were climbing too fast and I still was in fourth place, the line up was good peoples and didn't mind walking away a winner after having one chip left.
 
All in all, I played a good tournament, and picked my moves and times properly.  Oh, and congrats to gfro with the AK...you got luuuuucky!
