I’m going to try to live blog here… this ought to be interesting.
7:30 – I’m at Table 1, seat 8, but don’t recognize any of the names. 99 people tonight.
7:32 – I stopped playing at FullTilt to concentrate. I was seriously card dead at 25/50 but did OK at razz. I’m working off a 200 point bonus there. It is going to take awhile.
7:34 – First player out. wwonka joined our table
7:37 – my first pot! yippee!
7:38 – second pot! yippee!
7:51 – wwonka is out 93rd. Two pair to a flush. Next hand I crossed over 2k in chips. Good for top 20 at the moment.
7:55 – Columbo777 joined our table- as one of the chip leaders. He is on my left. In fact I have two chip leaders immediatly to my left. Joy.
8:04 – Just lost a fairly decent chunk of chips to Columbo777. Grrrr… Out of the top 20 for now.
8:07 – 2nd kill at our table.
8:08 – Lost *another* chunk to Columbo777 when he reraised me both preflop and on the flop when I hit 2nd pair. Possition sucks.
8:11 – Phluxer raises all in over BigSlickNut’s raise. BSN folds
8:12 – Decker711 is all in and all out (79th). I would have won. Grrrr…
8:13 – Phluxer is at it again. This time with InanimateJ. He gets the win and shows the bluff.
8:16 – Apparently Wil is out.
8:16 – Phluxer is all in and called by Columbo777. 99 v KK, 9 on the flop and Columbo is hurt
8:18 – Longshot1999 is out. All in w/ A9 against AQ – I am moved to table 4. I recognize no one.
8:19 – Wait, Sweet79Chuck is at my table. He is blogging.
8:20 – Smalldog is out when his nut flush draw doesn’t get there. Kaellinn18 is a chip leader- on my left, imagine that.
8:28 – It seems the game has tightened up a lot. I have dumped a bunch of AXo because of low chip stack. I am well below average.
8:30 – We are on break. I am 49 of 64 remaining. and almost a thousand chips shy of average.
8:35 – Blinds are 75/150. I am at < 10BB. Ouch.
8:40 - Columbo777 is back at my table. SoxLover is out 59th.
8:42 - Doubled up with my AA against Kaellinn18's 82o. huh? I am back to just shy of average stack.
8:44 - DavidK is out. when his 88 runs into SERNE's TT. SERNE has to be high on the leader board
8:45 - Sweet79Chuck is all in against thebrux and looses AQ to AK He is done in 54th.
8:48 - I'm out 50th. I reraised all-in with QQ to be called by SERNE with KK. He flopped quads. Ouch.
And that my friends is poker in a nut shell.
Good night everyone.
