Nov 13th - $200+$15 NL Hold'Em - Pokerstars

Ok...running it by the numbers....

Three thousand three hundred and thirty-two runners with a top prize of $133,000.

Hour 1: Finished this hour on $7000. Got VERY lucky in one pot where I get A-A. With blinds at 50-100 I raise it to 500, the player next on my left calls. The player two to HIS left goes all-in for $1200, I re-raise to $2400, player, immediately to my left, calls. One has Q-Q the other 4-4. Everyone misses and I'm sitting nicely.

Hour 2: Finished this hour on $12000. Again I get lucky. Have KK in the SB...its all passed round to the button who decides to go all-in for $6k. I, of course call. He flips J-4 and gets nowhere near it. A few hands later I get 9-9 on the SB. Again its passed round to the button who raises to 2400. I go all-in but the guy to my left calls for $5k. He flips A-Q and when a 9 flops its all over!!

Hour 3: I sit very tight waiting for the 'money' to roll in. I've scraped on by and have 11k when, with THREE players to go before the money, I get K-K on the button. There's a raise to 4k before it gets back to me and I click on the 'time' button and think! Bugger it! 'All-In'. Of course I'm called as the original raiser has J-J but no Jack comes and I'm into the money (324 players left) with $25k.

I then go card dead but I can ante away for a while. We're down to 180 players ($533 payout level) and I'm down to $11k. With blinds at 1500/3000 I go all-in UTG with 9c-10c hoping to get through. No such luck...I meet A-A and thats goodnight from me!

Never mind though a good day all round as I also win $1000 playing in the $1/$2 PL Omaha.
