April 14, 2008, 5PM: Played 40 minutes, Made $75.00 at Full Tilt Poker
$22 Buy-In No-Limit Texas Hold'em Tournament (1st out of 10 Players)

I hate FT.  I think it is a Vista problem, but I never know if my HH will be saved.  The history was saved for the private tourney yesterday, but not for this gem today.  And here I took notes about hands I wanted to discuss :(.
 
Oh well, I built a big stack and pushed everyone around for a while.  Then they got aggro so I backed off, but not for long.  Then things start going my way.  I take down a pot on the river with a one-card flush (4h), the guy did not even call.  Then I play aggro with 78 and hit 2pr on the flop.  And it gets better from there.
 
A guy tries to steal all in preflop with 59s? He runs into my A5s in SB.  I'm thinking it's bad to try that when big stack is one of the blinds?
 
Once four handed, things started REALLY going my way.  I knocked out 4th, 3rd, and 2nd on suckouts.  JAs rivered an Ace to beat some other pair.  I beat the next guy all in pre with 74 vs JK, and finally, to show just how well-aligned the stars are, I beat the last guy all in pre with 5J vs AJ.
 
I hate winning as much as I hate losing, cuz when I win it feels like dumb-ass luck.
