Finished 3rd in the Crypto $50k added

Permanent Linkby crack on Sun Aug 06, 2006 6:54 pm GMT

And it was nice!

I took away $5.3k for my troubles.

I was playing a bit of cash games as well, which was uneventful.

I busted in the Pokerstars Million

I busted in 10th in the THP v EMS with a good play.

THPer raised utg to $500, EMS called and I was going to just call but with about 1.5k n the pot already I decided to just push and the EMS player made a bad call with ATo and rivered a straight.

So down to the Crypto tourney.....


I was playing really well. The aim of this is to get chips after the first break, because it starts to turn into a real crapshoot. I was down to 800 chips at one point, then made some back, then came AK v AJ.

I had AJ in the BB, and decided to call, flop came QJ*, I had seen this guy push a lot, so I check, he pushed and I call and double up.

I pretty much didn't have another hand for hours and just stole my way into the cash, top 50 paid $200, which was cool.

I had some real luck in the tourney, with the best being A6 v AJ, flop J high, and I runnered 6's to bust him.

I pretty much just pushed any marginal hands and found myself with a good stack on the final table. Final 3 and I get this hand, which eventually crippled me.

So, that was about it. I think I may take a few days off from poker, because last time I cashed big, I went on a huge downswing.

So that's about it, will see what happens tomorrow.
