Since the WSOP was in Tunica, I decided to head there. I entered a $1000+60 and placed 14th for $3715.
I then got in a $200 + 25 R&A satellite with the top 3 getting a $10K seat in the big one. I won it!
The big one came!
Day 1, I made a good showing and was in 8th at the end of the day with 48K.
Day 2 started out great. The chip leader Capt Tom was at my table. He lost a showdown and dropped $20K right off the bat. The it was my turn.
I was dealt AdQd. I raised the pot and everyone folded but Capt Tom.
Three diamonds flopped and I thought a second and pushed allin. Capt Tom asked how many chips I had. For some reason, I got real nervous and couldn't count my chips. :lol: The floor manager counted them for me. This made Capt Tom think he caught me in a bluff and he called. His mouth dropped when I turned over the nut flush. I'm now up over 100K. :) I finished him off right before 1st break and he was out.
I finished the day out in 3rd with 131,000.
Day 3 which was my birthday coincidently, I knew I was going to get a good present. I played consevatively with a few good chip gains. I kept picking on pro Kathy Liebert and robbing her pile. I peaked out as chip leader for an hour with 171,000. Then we had a table move. We got down to 19 players with 18 paying. It took almost 2 hours for the bubbleman to bust as everyone was tight. Here I am back with Kathy Liebert and a few other pro's. My cards turned terrible and my pile was dropping fast. Kathy made a comeback and I was shortstacked. I went allin with 77 and Kathy called me with A4o.
Flop 866 Turn 6 River Ace
Oh well, I shook everyones hand and went and collected my $20,835 15th place prize.
Time of my life.
After that, I went to Vegas to try again, but all I won was a great time and some good table sessions. View the http://www.CardPlayer.com logs HERE for more detail!
