Less is More..

Decided to call this one 'Less is More' because I am pretty sure I have been rambling a bunch. Anyways, since my last post, the $1500 shootout was no good. I raise called A10cc from the cutoff and the guy had me beat with AQoff. The hand held and I got my last in with J7cc against A3off and was out. On to the next one.

On Thursday I played the $1500 6max no limit event. I got off to a great start and had my initial 4500 up to about 10,500. But this is 6max and really volatile at all times so got back down to 5k in no time. Eventually I was moved to my second table, found some momentum, and wound up getting my stack up to around 20-25k. I would peak at about 64k after dinner, but after I lost 4 pots containing (14-30)K I found myself working ~32K @500-1000. Two away from the money, I was dealt 22(2nd favorite hand of SK) and after a middle position open to t2100 and a call from the small blind, I decided to see a flop of KK2cc. This checked thru until we saw the 7s where the small blind checked, I lead for 4600, all the money got in and the middle opener had K2dd. Great to be drawing stone dead on the flop and after 6 events I have lost twice full house to better full house.

I decided to take Friday off and play continued on Saturday where I participated in the $1500 no limit at the Rio. This one was pretty uneventful as I was out at (100-200) 25 ante where my QQ was out flopped by AKss. We all know how that goes. :)

Tried to keep this post filled with updates/hand histories from the past three events. I am playing the first $1000 no limit event at the WSOP today. This one has about 2600 in it so far and should be a nice prize for first place.

I will try to update this blog as often as possible. As for now, thank you for giving it a look and hopefully I will have some good news soon!
