*Official* Party 200k Guarenteed Saturday

Awful as usual. I end up pushing with 99, called by AK and QT (QT guy called two allins in front of him). Q comes and I get no help. =/

first break - treading water (poorly); KK twice (folded turn, no action) and JJ once (no action)

1195 at first break. had good success raising with trash out of position at my uber-tight first table; less success with the reasonable hands.

[Shorty35]

dismal showing; out around 774. had a few good hands that didnt hold up and got punished with every marginal one. Made a stand with JTs against laggy guy to my left who had been doling out the punishment every time I raised. I raise to 3x bb in late position, he reraises; I push; he calls with ATos (so much for disciplined play yielding respect); he wins after a J hits on the flop when a fourth club hits on the river and he makes the nut flush.

better luck to the rest of you.

Just had a nice rush, and Im at 4500 chips at table 5. Made a really great call on a river earlier before the break which if I folded would of left me with 500 chips, but instead won 2400.

1495... haven't gotten above 1800... and that was the first level.

this is turning out to be one hell of a frustrating tournament.
first, i open for 3xbb with AKo UTG. UTG+1 goes all-in for 13xbb, SB calls for 9.5xbb. I have 10xbb left and fold. Board has an Ace, UTG+1 takes it down with 99, 1 pair.
a few orbits later, i raise UTG with 99. same UTG+1 calls, and a guy in LMP goes all-in for about 12xbb. calling him would basically put me all-in, but as I will only have about 8xbb if I fold, and I'm decidedly not worried about UTG+1, I decide to gamboooooool....except....OOPS....I accidentally let my time run out and my hand is auto-folded! UTG+1 calls with 33, LMP has AQo. Flop brings the 3rd 9, and river brings the 4th.

AAAAAAAAAAAAARRRGH.

Maybe I'm being results-oriented, but I don't care. I'm going insane!

[DonButtons]

Yeah, I was talking to givingcash why you were even thinking about folding.

Any hand I would raise with preflop with a 1300 stack, specially 99, I would call instantly. Ohh well.

Back to me, Im running very hot, at 8100!!

[BobboFitos]

Well, I'm out. Big hand was when I raise from MP w/ TT, both blinds call. (75/150)

K T x, all spades. SB bets 1/2 pot, BB calls, I move in. BB flopped it w/ A9s...

After that I was crippled. Oh well. What can you do.

Oh that's easy....it's because I'm weak-tight.

Good job so far, good luck!
