Knowing how I play these things normally, I play pretty wild to build up a stack in that first hour but need to get a decent stack in the 2nd hour or I will flounder it away. Now that i've doubled up I would expect to see things settle down quite a bit.

Hand #86: Free flop with K9o vs 3 opponents. Flop comes AKJ. Being first to act my best chance to win is to bet out. i bet out 500 chips into the 800 pot and win it right there.

Hand #88: With one limper, I raise 4x the BB with JJ on the button. I win the blinds+limp

Hand #91: KQo in mid position. I open-raise and steal the blinds.

Hand #92&#93: I fold A7 and A2 from early positions at the table. See, I'm not too stupid


Hand #94: Level 7 begins. 100/200 blinds, 25 ante.

The antes are where Harrington's way of looking at things really helps me. blinds are still 100/200 but how does the antes change things? Instead of looking at how many big blinds i have, I now look at the pot size. Pot is 525 pre-flop at a full table. Going into this level I have 16,185 in chips. Here are the chip-stacks, showing one very short guy and everyone else is still in very good shape.

Seat 1: JayBizzle8 (12910 in chips)
Seat 2: BigE1132 (9845 in chips)
Seat 3: scott tuna (14325 in chips)
Seat 4: caniwin12 (16225 in chips)
Seat 5: twit38 (13330 in chips)
Seat 6: radii (16185 in chips)
Seat 7: stokie (18280 in chips)
Seat 8: beeyoung (11570 in chips)
Seat 9: Chezwiz75 (1050 in chips)
