Tournament 1
$1500 to start

$10/$20 blinds. Hero is MP1, dealt AQh I limped with AKoff the previous hand and folded to a big bet after the flop were bricks. This time I bet 3xBB and get 5 callers!. Rags all over the place and I take down $300.

Next hand on the BB, I have 86h. 6 guys limp in and I get a free flop, all hearts. My hearts are weak, but no one wants the pot. I make a few smallish bets, get a few callers, and win another $350.

After folding a dozen hands or so, I'm tempted to raise with 92off, but I don't share that karma.

BB goes all in with AKs, SB is covered but calls with AJd, and MP2 is coverd by both but calls with 88. No one is improved and the eights triple up, SB is cooked, BB down to $200 and kocked out on the next hand.

Blinds are up to $50/$100, I've played a total of 2 hands, and only 5 guys are left. As soon as I say that, I get AK on the button, raise 2 limpers to $300, and they bail. I'm 3rd with $2175.

$75/$150 blinds, in the BB again with KQoff. SB limps. Free flop is 8-Q-9. SB bets 1x, I raise it to 2x and he calls. Turn is a 5. He checks, I bet 4x and he folds. I snag another $900 and am up to $2625, good for 3rd out of 5.

With KTs, I call a raise of 3xBB andhit a pair on a flop of T-6-3 rainbow. Raiser bets 1600 and I bail - thought I had another steal, as these guys are folding like mad to large bets. Me included, I suppose.

$100/$200 blinds. MP1 raises to 4xBB. UTG and goes all-in with 3345. SB and short stack calls his last 800, and MP1 calls his last 755 and is all in. MP1 has 77, UTG has QQ, SB has TT. The cards fall Q-2-8-J-K and two more are eliminated. UTG is now our chipleader with 6080, 5220 is second and I've got 2200 and right where I want to be - appear deperate and steal blinds by pushing.

Which I do for maybe 8 of the next 12 hands. I bet, they fold. Every time. Maybe I'll get a call from the BB, but otherwise they just keep handing over their chips. 20 hands later I'm the chipleader with 9150, ahead of 2 stacks of 3105 and 1245, and not once did we make it past the flop. In this time I did have some pretty good cards, but more often than not, raising to 3xBB sends the other guys running.

$200/$400 blinds $50 ante. Short stack goes all in with 1695 and I call with 55. He has AK but gets no help. I'm up to 10845, the other fish has but 2655.

He beats me once when I call his all-in with QTs. He had KK and hit another K on the turn for good measure, but I basically bled him of his blinds until he got desperate and pushed with T3off and ran into my A7. w00t!

One tournament - one win!
