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.
