PING: PokerStars peanut gallery

[cartman]

Enough of Primelord hogging the spotlight. :)

I'm currently sitting in 5th place of a $1 tourney at PokerStars. We started out with 1594, and are now down to the last 15.

The tourney is 36191936, and I'm at table 203.

I've got 276K in chips, and the blinds are 4K/8K/400.

[cartman]

Woot! Now I'm chip lead. My AKs knocked out #4 stack's A3.

11 left

[cartman]

Final table!

I'm still chip lead, but only by 7K.

[cartman]

Blinds are 6K/12K/600, and the chip range is 77500 to 427000

[cartman]

Stacks 2 and 3 get into a battle, and 3 takes a big chunk of 2's chips to vault into the chip lead.

[cartman]

Chip leader extends his lead by knocking the first guy off the final table.

I'm watching. Keep it up...I finished second in a $1 two nights ago. Should've won it...had two horrific beats (KK < 83, all-in on 9-8-5 flop; A9 < A4, all-in PF).

I'll take $160 for second...but sonofabitch, I wanted the win, the way I battled back (49th out of 50, low stack the entire way from 50 on...suffered a beat when I was 2nd in chips vs the 3rd in chips that crippled me with 54 left...10-10 vs A9 on 9-5-4 board, all-in, A on turn).

[cartman]

2nd player gone from final table. 2nd chip stack was dominated AQ vs AK. A K came on the flop, but AQ got the flush.

[cartman]

3rd gone.

[cartman]

I'm hitting a cold card streak. It is to be expected. We were at 18 left at the last break, and I was in 18th.

Oops, I realized I typed the reply in the chat window. I had something similar happen a while back in one of the $10 10 minute blinds. I was comfortably in the lead heads-up, but the guy rivered me twice in a row. The second one I called his $1000 catch.

[Comey]

That sucks.

[Comey]

dola--

What did you have to fold UTG to fasteddie's push?

[Comey]

Wow. What a hand.

The player behind you reminds me of the moron I played on Wednesday night.

pocket 4s

[cartman]

back in the chip lead. Pocket Queens got me doubled up against an A8 calling station.

[Comey]

He didn't even have that much (A3c).

[Comey]

I'm passing out from a long day. Good luck man. I've got to hit the hay.

thanks for the support. Talk to you later!

[cartman]

And we are down to 5. The guy that doubled me up got his 77 knocked out by QQ.

[cartman]

Quickly down to 4.

[cartman]

Down to 3

[Maple Leafs]

Need that FOFC sweat... I'll tag in for Comey.

[cartman]

We are at the 5th break.

3 of us are left. The stacks are 881K, 837K (me), and 671K. Blinds after the break are 15K/30K/1500

[Maple Leafs]

[Spolier warning]

You're taking this down.

[cartman]

[Spolier warning]

You're taking this down.

I hope. :) LUDAbabe has been playing really well.

[cartman]

not a good time to hit another cold card streak. These guys aren't letting many raises go uncalled.

[sabotai]

Watching (that means you're about to lose. I'm bad luck. :( )

[cartman]

I flopped trip 2s, but chip leader got a flush on the river. Luckily I didn't go all in.

[cartman]

Dang, out in 3rd. My AK couldn't crack QQ.

$102.02 on a $1 entry. Not bad.
