before i get into the final table i made yesterday, i want to mention that i got close to making one on FTP yesterday as well...



i think i mentioned it yesterday that i had FT the day before as well... a cheap 4th place.


almost got one today as well, i got very unlucky to not make it, shorties doubled every time (about 6 times), then i get sucked out on, then lose another all in with a shorty then i run into AA all on the FT bubble.




now onto the rebuy tourney....

i think i played this tourney well. i will go over a few key hands... im gonna copy kevin's style (blog page) a little bit, and see how i like it...i know this isnt a win, but i feel i played my best game in this tourney. unlike kevin i dont snap many screen shots while playing, so i loaded my HH file in pokerXfacter's replayer, and i will provide a link so anyone can watch the whole tourney if they like.


i started the 2nd hour here, i am in it for $709




=====




my 1st double up... i deserve this btw....

======




this guy thought i was stealing and attempted a resteal.... hmmm i wonder if this is how he got his chips?


===============



well i guess this guy is definitely a blind defender... maybe he did get his chips this way, but we know for sure this is how he lost them... hmmmm... ty sir.


=============



this is a big hand... it tells the table im not gonna be ran over, and tells them to be careful of me. i tried to steal the blinds, this dude calls.... he leads out for 8k, in my pot? wtf... i re-pop him to 20k committing almost half my stack making me look very strong, it was a 2.5 times reraise as well... you can not do this against any opponant. he folds, and i win a nice pot.... notice who is on the button? its the winner of this tourney from the day before.

=========




this is just a few hands later, and you also at some point need to tell the table to stay off of your blinds... or mattg will rape you all night.. trust me i know.

=========






another sweet pot... dude pushed on me and i had the hand...

==============




sorry kevin, i hate doing this to you.... esp since i didnt win...

==============



last hand.... while at the final table, i couldnt even play a hand... table was very aggressive, and i couldnt get a hand... i was card dead, and maybe i played a lil to tight, and this push may be questionable, i could had waited another orbit, and hope i could find something better that i could get 1st in with.

i believe if you wanted you can watch the whole tourney at pxf as long as you register with them for the free account. here is the link for this tourney:

100r whole tourney in replayer

i might take a look at the other final table i made a few days ago.. i know i made a very embarrassing play with 2 tables left... but i had a huge stack before that play... it might make an interesting post later... i will watch it in the replayer and see if i can find something worth writing about. unless i get a win or something in the mean time.. seems like i keep getting very close... its gotta come soon right??????
