Not complaining because I would play the hands the same way again.
Day 1 A .....
I did wear my sexy hat and got beat down like a red headed step child.
1st big hand I have KhQh on the button and it folds around to me I raise it 3 x and only get called by the big blind.
Flop comes QcQs7h Big blind bets the pot min raise and he flats.
Turn 2h Big blind bets close to pot and I min raise about 3x and he flats.
River 4d Big blind bets about half the pot and I just call.
He flips over AQ off suit. I felt like Charlie Brown when they pull the football out of the way as he is kicking it.
I was left with 1700 chips
I chipped up a little bit to just under 4000.
Get pocket Kings under the gun and flat call it. Some one raises about 4x and everyone folds .... I jam in all my chips.
Guy flips over A7 off suit .
Flop comes two 7's ....... I puke in my mouth a little bit and sheepishly exit the tournament area.
I wouldn't play either hand any differently so I'm not upset about it.
Day 1B
No hat
played really well and was up to 41 K at the dinner break.
Lost a 20K pot to a beautiful young girl where I was middle position and she was small blind.
I had AQ off and she had AK off on a AA7 rainbow flop. I doubled her up and I can't see ever folding this. Just a cooler is all.
My last hand of the night I was a little steamed about. They just moved a guy to our table that had about 90K in chips and I was down to 20K . I jammed in 20K with pocket Jacks and he called with pocket 5's. rivered a 5 to knock me out. I don't think I call if I were him. I guess I could be doing it with a big Ace a lot of the time but worst case is he is in a flip against 2 overs or dominated by an over pair. I guess in the long run you want that guy to make the call because the other 4 times I win the pot.
Going to have to give some serious consideration to my costume for the 5K now.
lol had a super loud new yorker at my table for day B in the $1100
Anyone who was in my general area heard him probably, he said "cus" a lot. like cousin. i guess its an american thing.
his nickname fittingly enough was "Cus" i believe, it was a long day and i busted at the end, its a blur
did he have on a red track jacket ???? there was an asshat at the next table loud talking for a while and telling everyone how bad they were playing. I put my one earphone in just to drown him out.
DirtArse flopped a set and all the chips went in for a huge 600K pot, but he got a bad beat. He cashed $4,557, but I've never seen a more depressed casher.
With 7 eliminations to go, at least three members are still in for the super satellite with the last 40 winning a $2,500 entry. Card Dead & djgolfcan have > 60K, while PocketTwos is close to the 42,553 average.
Oh you lucky bappers. I made it to the $2500 tourney!! So did card dead. Sadly pocket twos was the bubble boy. Don't feel too bad for him, he still plays tomorrow from winning a seat at OPT.

Went on the 2-5 list at 11am. She said there are about 40 ahead of me but they're opening 3-4 tables at noon. Would have been nice had she mentioned that none of the tables were for 2-5. Still about 20 ahead of me so I'm just hitting the road back to TO. What a waste of almost 2 hours!
Table broke and I've gone a bit card dead at the new table. It's also not as soft, but I've been able to win a couple of decent pots with marginal holdings because my image is good.

Vito Cosentino ...... GOOD LUCK.
What table are you at? I'm still in as well!
Anyone who was in my general area heard him probably, he said "cus" a lot. like cousin. i guess its an american thing.

pretty good for his first ever live poker tourney.
Did you get through?
No I basically bubbled in 46th. My first real bubble that matters. That's poker though right?
Does anyone know if they're running 2-5 in the casino this morning?
Running 5 tables of 2-5 right now.
Live update:
"Cuz" is at my table today. I like him.
curious what he said or did.
Joe McKeehan is 2 tables over from me. He looks exhausted.
Sitting at just over 40k at second break.
Table broke and I've gone a bit card dead
I knew he looked familiar !! Now I know why,
lol its tough sitting directly next to him though. for your sanity.
