i liked how i played this hand for many reasons actualy, but some people like Meteoric and Loan$hark didn't like it. it even put him on monkey tilt so he open-shoved 62s and lost which was kinda funny :)

anyway, at some point i was 24th with almost 3.5 avg stack but last 15 mins before the break i played at the 3-handed table with a shortstacker and a guy on my left who didn't mind gambling. that was retarded - instead of taking advantage of my stack size i actually lost some chips. unfortunately later I switched to chip-spewing mode and tried to steal blinds twice with very marginal hands. some shortstacker shoved and i was forced to call. actually 2nd call was bad..then i lost 2 flips and I was left with 5bbs. I realised there are only 200 people left till next payout level so I started requesting time on every hand before folding. this retarded tactic made me extra $60. oh and i lost with AQs so it wasn't that bad. finished ~1900/9000 ($150). better than last month.

oh and I lost 2 sats on fulltilt this morning(maybe $12-$15 in total). not that I had good chances but I have to admit I played terribly

  1. I liked the hand too, I was just taking the piss. Especially liked how well he took the beat :-)

    Why didn't you put more on the river though?

    After the break everyone seemed to go into chip spewing mode. I guess the blinds were starting to bite at that point...
