The wife and her friends went out to the movies last night, so I found a spot to be able to play some poker for about 3 hours. I was considering playing a 180-man on Stars, but because I wanted to get done in less than 3 hours, I looked for a tournament with 60-120 people in it. Ultimately, I decided on a $3 tourney on FT that, when I registered, had about 90 people in it with 2 minutes left in registration. By the time I had tucked the kids in bed and returned to my seat 10 minutes into the tourney, there were 250+ entrants. Sigh…
First hand of significance came up just a minute or so after I sat down:
Seat 1: PJS JR (1,585)
Seat 2: Taly87 (850)
Seat 3: Daniel Nigreanu (510)

Pretty standard there, only 1 hand that could beat him, and obviously I had it. About 5 hands later, this one comes up…

I didn’t figure him for a limp re-steal with aces or kings, so I just went with the hand. Fortunately, my hand held up. From there, because I had so many chips in comparison to the blinds, I didn’t get involved in too many more pot for the next 20-25 minutes. I wasn’t really getting anything, so I just laid back and waited. I bluffed at one big pot that netted me about 1,200 chips, and then the next big one came up:
Seat 1: midtown101 (6,990)

That one stung, and I got berated by everyone at the table for my limp re-raise, but whatever, I was ahead, like I thought I was, and I got sucked out on. What can you do? I got my chips back within a couple of minutes anyways…

That was a nice one to win. I am now top 3 or 4 in chips, and essentially rolling. Only lost 1 big hand, and I am getting my money in ahead.

I just didn’t feel right about the way he bet, and decided to lay it down. Maybe he had KQ or KJ, but I wasn’t sure, so I got out of there. I then won an 8,000-chip pot with top pair, crappy kicker to a guy who flopped middle pair and called me all the way to the river. I was now at 21,000 chips and going strong.
Here’s my next big hand:

Of course, now I am the chipleader and steamrolling. We got down to 3-handed shortly after, with one guy and myself having 90% of the chips, though I doubled up the shorty when my AT couldn’t hold off his A7 AIPF. About 2 hands later, the other guy took out the shorty AQ vs. KQ and we were heads-up. This is how it looked starting heads-up:
Seat 3: evienneau (246,646)
Seat 8: PJS JR (146,354)

That was humorous actually. The match ended soon after that when I tried to bluff on the river and he caught me. Then I got my last 30k in chips in with KJ and he calls with AK, game over. $130 cash for a $3 entry is pretty good, though I would have like the $204 for first.
Visual proof:
Anyways, gotta get to work, but thought I would share my final table with everyone. Will post again soon, although probably won’t play again until Saturday night or Sunday morning.
Thanks all for reading, and good luck at the tables.
