OnGame Grand Tourney
Ok so today I am entered in the $1040 Grand Tourney on OnGame (pokerroom et al). I'm going to post hands here of note. You can follow me as cdnmoose05.
Format: 10,000 starting chips, 6 max, 30 min blinds which is huge for online.
Lvl 1 25/25
Ok I have to finish up some stuff for work and then I jump into the shower so I show up 10 min late. cdnmoose aka phil hellmouth
I scan through the hands but I missed nothing of note.
First hand K4, I fold. Flop K104 of course. Miss out on $1300 pot
2. 88, action is heavy and I get out of the way of a $2950 pot.
3. I fold but at showdown I see AA take down a $1300 pot.
Wow pretty loose and crazy already. Lagtard at table down $2k already.
Hand 5
1010 I take down $600 on the flop
Few hands later QJdd, flop 9d10hJh then Kd bingo! then Kc, guy on my right has been betting every street bets a little big, I ponder and just flat call. He had 89hh for a flopped straight and freeroll in hearts, while I turned the higher straight and freeroll in diamonds. I take down $1520
Next hand AA, get into it with the lagtard. Board 6744J. I'm cautious and check behind when the flush completes and of course lagtard shows Q4. grr.
Few hands later limp J8s board J24, guy on my left min bets. Turn 3. Min bets and I raise it up. River 6. Of course the dude holds 36. Unreal. Now I'm back to even
25 min in, pick up KK, board ends up 4 spades with an A on flop and I give up on river with no spades of course. Down to 8750 chips now.

Comments
First hand, of course I turn a straight, river brick but dude has flopped flush. ularg. Ok I'm a donk. Down to 4950 now. This is not my day.
33. One limper, I limp, lagtard makes it 200 to go. We both call. Board J8QQK. Of course the way I run, this is good. Unreal. Lagtard has A6. Other dude has 74s? Well what can I say, he has $15k already so obv much better than I. 5200 now.

1st hand of the level QQ
One limp. Raise to $250, call, call, call.
Flop 33K. Pot $1000, lead out $400, call, lagtard c/r to $2600. Everyone folds. Clearly I have no clue how to play this game. Down to $3850. Sigh.
Ugh lagtard busts out and I'm at a new table. I can't possibly get a softer table than the last one.

Getting desperate now.
Bluffed off a bunch more chips to the top 200 guy
1010 in BB, before it gets to me - raise, reraise, I fold. Flop - bet, raise, reraise, fold. I think I dodged a bullet there.
AJ - steal the blinds
Next hand 109s, raise UTG, flop A10x, bet half pot and win
Next hand 66, solid player raises from button, I shove and everyone folds. $3550 now.
One orbit later same guy raises to $250, I shove 44 from sb and everyone folds. $3650
$3650
KK no action
KQ in BB one limp, Juhlapokka makes it $400. I do not want to play with this guy and I fold. Flop blanks and I'm glad.
A7, raise to 300. Blinds call. Flop A96. Bet 2/3, one call. Turn 9 and completes the flush. Basically I can't beat anthing now. Dude moves me in on river and I fold.
Next hand Juhlapokka raises, I shove my last 2700 with presto. Get called by AK, turn A and IGHN. Shittiest tourney ever and the only hand I regret is paying off that flush in the first level. All my big hands got sucked out on or I made no money. Sigh.
