Arggghh. Would have swaped places with the chip leader.

I was heads-up in a $5 SnG a while back, and got an all-in over the top pre-flop (I had him covered). He didn't know I had AA. River did something that made us draw the hand, I don't remember what -- he ended up coming back to win the tournament. Real annoying...especially because he had been criticizing my play the whole time.

I'll try to do hand history tomorrow as well

just need to knock out one of these small stacks to get a full table and slow the blinds down a bit

Not much action as the bubble situation continues. 4 stacks below 10k trying to survive

Small stack goes all in for 2100 with AJ. I'm in BB for 1200 and call with Q7 offsuit and flop a Q to win. He then proceeds to cuss me out. :D:D:D

final table 9 players left

$42 is min. payout right now

Big stack has 44k
I have 30k (4th)
Small stack has 4k

blinds at 800/1600

I've yet to play a hand at the final table. Got KQ offsut UTG first hand, but laid it down

pick up JJ and raise to 4k, BB calls and then I play stupid

I lose another 9k on the hand as he had the A :(

down to 8 now - $56

I have 14k which is good for 5th and big stack is up to 65k

down to 8k as I lose another 3k with 99 to QQ

Guy with straight gets rivered by a flush and is out.

Down to 7 - $70

You can DO it! :)

Went out with KJ suited. Lost to A4 offsuit with neither one of us hitting a card.

7th place - I'll take it.

Had 8k left and blinds were 1500/3000 and was one place off the button. BB called with the A4

Off to bed now. I'll try to see if I can figure out how to get hand histories off of pokerroom tomorrow.

congrats, very good showing :)
