Default RESULTS

Yes I meant 66 not 44.

UNfortunately I learned a valuable lesson that day. Dont eat casino chinese just before the tournament starts when your in a rush to get there. Something in the food accelerated my brain into 100 MPH. I couldnt relax and I couldnt focus. So before my brain could stop and think about the hand my mouth yelled out "all in", he called in less than a second (also not thinking) and showed 66 for the set. I was so mad at myself, not him. God damn food made me hyper and high strung, like 4 cups of expresso high strung. So my brain's ID took over saying "he's a bad player how dare he raise me, all in" and my SUPEREGO went "Noooooooooooo!!!" Soon as it came out of my mouth I realized what I did. And I did know this player and my instincts told me I was beat. Hes the type of player that if you don't have 2 pair or better when he raises your done. See a lot of those types at these tournaments.

Irony is that 3 days vefore I just played in my 1st bigger stakes tournament ($200) and got top 3 making $5Gs. Then I pull this thing. No chinese anymore, nice salads with propel and a vitamin 2 hours before play for me.

Ive placed good in the money about 40% of my 8 multi tournaments I entered so far. Most are $33 tournaments. This was my 2nd $150+ live.

Thanks all.
