Myself, I thought I played very well - made some big lay downs - especially the 99 hand - I was the aggressor and lost 4K in total but could havve been a lot worse if I hadn't slowed down on the turn and folded. My 7set also knocked 4/5K off my stack - the guy checked call me on flop and turn and when he checked the river with a big grin on his face - I said to him "you have JJ or QQ in your hand don't you" - his smile went and he went as red as a beetroot, so I check and see the QQ Grinded all the way through, and eventually found a spot to get 5K with 10 10 on a 865 2 board - I raise pre flop 2 from the cut off, button flats, after flop I bet 1.2K - he flats, on turn I bet 1.8K and he re raises to 4K - I tank for a minute and shove the rest of my stack in and he instantly folds Won a couple of other 1/2K pots - just targeted the inexperienced ones (if they hit the flop they bet and check when they missed) so took a few of them to get me back to 17K - and then the QQ hand... I was the button in this hand - UTG raises to 1.2K, guy next to me flat calls and I re raise to 3.8K, UTG folds, guy next to me re raises me to 8K (He had over 50K i think), I think the hand through and the plays he had made in other hands and decide that he hasn't got AA or KK, hard to describe how I knew that - it was easy at the time but I can't describe the reads I had on this player - anyway I shove the rest of my 17K in the middle fully expecting him to fold and I would happily take what was in the middle (around 10K of the other players money including the Binds) anyway the guy tanks it and his response to me was " I feel lucky mate and I think you have AK so Im ahead" and calls with his 44's or 55's - I don't remember - 4 on the flop - goodnight me - 36K pot that would have got me through to Day 2 easily - but hey ho, that's the way it goes.
Back tommorrow to rail the other guys and hope they can go deep into the cash
gl to those still standing.
Sounds like you had an eventful day, and that you were reading players well and playing well but what you cant account for is those pesky poker gods. (sometimes they are with you sometimes not) Another time youll go deep in one of these Dylan im sure.
Please wish the others well from me.
thanks
