Im feeling Elite....out of the rut on PokerStars


After having a great day yesterday. I played 1 tourney and final tabled it. While also winning it with a couple suck outs Wink...for those who don't know. In my previous blog I mentioned the Elite 9 tourney. Well I happened to take it down. Played some good and bad poker. But the cards ran well for me and I took first for a cool $150 (probably play the 100K on AP on Saturday) o.O

So coming home today after class, I turned up the ol computer and was ready to get back into action. Well I was 5 minutes late for the AP tourneys (OOPS). So it would be full concentration on my PS $10.

1st Break: 2200 in chips

2nd Break: 6000 ish in chips

3rd Break 90000 in chips (AA all in vs KK, AJ hits a flush, TT wins a race, 55 wins a decent pot with all in and check downer)

4th break. Ran a bluff against a LAG (loose agressive player) and he cut out 60% of my stack. But I got it back after taking couple hands down pf and then getting it in KK vs AQ with him. Went as high as 160K and ended @ 120K at break

We were @ 18 peopleI then went on a horrible run of cards. Raises in front everywhere and not a hand in the world to defend. Made stands with AJ and AK. KQ called 2:1 and won. QT took out 11th player and then we were at final table

I won a quick all in from an aggy player with AJ vs A4 to give me chips to move around. And then what do you know, I get respect. WEEE chips come my way. I get up to 500 ish in chips. I get to see a flop from SB against a limper. I flop a flush. I chk, BB bets pot, limper pushed (same as bet pretty much) and I push to hoping I win the nice pot. Linper flopped set of 5s and rivers house Sad down to 350K ish in chips

Win some msall pots just evening it out for the big hand (currently 4 handed).

5th break. I got 240K They talk about a chop at break. One guy says i'll agree to anything. They have me outchipped 1mill, 800K, 240K me and 260K someone else. So I say "Even chop" they think and decide no lol

with 20/40K blinds I get ansy and push Q3s on the button. SB thinks and I am thinking "I hope he only has JT, only JT". Well what do you know he has JT and I flop a Q. Up to 500K. I then pick up pots to 700K

4th and 3rd go out. And He has a 2:1 chip lead, very tight. I have A3 and flop two pair. He turns a up and down gut shot and bets while I raise. in 1/2 my stack. And push it on the river when he hits (OOPS).

$2000 win. So I'm def happy. Now I am only $48K away from hitting my goal for the year.
