last one in awhile

Going to head out to Minnesota tomorrow for a conference, and then straight to LA to meet my cousin! Will be back next Wednesday.

2 Tabling - I felt like playing some multi-sit n gos - I haven't done well recently in these, and I think it's because I'm not gambling enough in the beginning because a) I'm not paying enough attention because I'm usually focusing on the cash tables and b) i'm trying to play too safe which is not effective in a turbo tournament...lets see how i do...

Table #1
NL Turbo $11 + 1 45 players

Limped in with JJ UTG, 4 players see flop of KQ4...I fold

Nothing going on down to $1,200 chips with blinds at 50/100

83, 72, 84, 95 I haven't had a single premium hand in both tourneys...

Won a small pot with AQ vs KK who was short stacked. I flop Q, turn Ace. At around $2K still

GG pushed with 8 6 when everyone folded to me, instacalled by KJ.

Table #2
NL Turbo $11+1 180 players

Bleh raised with KJ pre, button calls. Flop K54. I bet he calls. Turn 2, I bet he calls. River Q, I check he bets pot, I call. He flips over QQ, lol. I lost like $500 of my $1,500 already. I'm thinking that guy was calling the whole way thinking his QQ was good, so maybe I minimized my loss.

Even more nothing going on down to $700 chips with blinds at 50/100 - Desperation time

Yes tripled up in the big blind...lol
