Crazy Friends From Texas

After a crazy week of hanging out with my friends from texas it was time for the sunday tournie. I really did not feel like playing it because I wanted to spend some time with my GF. I ended up buying in anyways, not focused, not prepared at all, but there I was.
 
I raise with ak 6players call flopp is 9high I give it away. 10min later I raise with jj flopp is AK3 2 callers I give it away.
Starting to get frustrated and find 1010in small blind. Earlie position raises small button reraise 280. Still in rebuy period so its an insta call against 2 big stacks. Flopp is 710k. First raiser bets 800 button mini raise to 1600 I just call here to lure the first raiser in. We all end up allin and first player shows kq secod player shows aj. So I have 3 queens that can lose me the pot and of course it shows on the river. So angry I did not even bother to rebuy I just shut the computer down and went to the gym. A midnight workout is great to cool of the tilt.
 
Good thing the cash games are working great when the sunday gua is killing me=) Trying to get my GF or a poker friend to come with me to moscow for the ept event in mid august. We will see what happens.

This Time I Thought It Was My Turn!

It was time for the sunday tournament and I and after having a great week at the tables and dubbled my bankroll in 5 days I felt eager to get to action.

I sat down at 6 3-6euro tables and had the tournament in the background. After the first hour I was on 7500 in chips so nothing special, but right after the break I flopped a set of 5s agaianst a KK and top pair. A 3 way all in game me a 20K stack, It did not take long long before I flopped a set of 4s and took my stack to 32000 and I was the chipleader.
 
After that I dont know what happened but I played terrieble and played way to many hands and were trying to steel every hand. Lost 4 out 4 50 50 situations in a row and that sunday night was over.
 
I been working out very well with my brother this week and today was the first time we were on the ice and it was fun.
 
The entire week we had good friends visiting from Texas so its been long days and long nights having alot fun.
 
Yesterday we visited the old falu cooper mine and it was a cool experience. Tomorow I will go to stockholm for the weekend and relax and spend some time with family and friends.

Yesterday Was The Day!

Yesterday was the day!
 
After a really good profit saturday and sunday I felt that the 150K guarantee was going to be a big payday. Relaxed and sharp I started fighting for chips. I Rebought right away to kick me up to 4000 in chips. I really did not have any big decisions the fist hour, playing very tight waiting for a solid starting hand my stack stayed around 4000-5500. I was playing 6 other cash games on the side and the value was realy good on 4 of the 600nl euro tables. Everything was set up for a great night.
 
After the first break I had 7500 in chips and things was still going well, until this guy hojjaboy was starting to go on nerves on the 600nl cashgame tables, he got me for at least 3000euros with the sickest set ups ever. Enough was when I rerasied big with KK and he called with 22 flopp comes 2 3 10 with 2 diamonds I paid him of again after beeing on tilt and the perfect turn and river shows 2 7…poker is though sometimes.
 
The tournie was still looking good after getting some chips with some good hands I was around 20 000 in chips I was over avarage. Playing only the tournament I felt very focused and was playing well.
 
We were down to like maybe 120 players when I won a monster pot with the best hand and got the chiplead. This was going to be the day. THe blinds was going up really fast and every hand is a major decision.
 
Key pots was when I was trying to steal from the button with all in with a5 and he insta called with AA funny is that later on he also found ak suited on the button when i had a6 suited. I managed to steel alot of chips and got paid of and was still topp 10 for a long while.
 
60 players left I find KK a solid 400nl player handthemover raised UTG and a big stack moved in for 150 000chips I have to call
and really hope handthemover dont have AA, he folds and bigstack calls with AK. If I won this pot I would have had a monster chiplead. An ace shows on the flop and there goes my first place. Was close to a comback but never got lucky in the 50/50 situations at the end.
 
Kicked out on 21th place and only 650dollar to lick my wounds that the lucky fish hojaboy had created on my bankroll.
 
Til me meet again.
