Bluff Poker Tour ~ Poker Stars (Event 24)

Doh I totally forgot about it.
I was going to play this one too.

I was on Stars too the whole time.
Played in a 20 Table SNG finished 38/180
blinds were getting incredibly high and went
card dead in 2 orbits. Down to less than 5x BB
was dealt QJo in the SB and decided this was
the hand. Do or Die. BB (another shortstack but had
me covered) called with TT and no Q came. Game Over :sad:

Prior to going card dead, I was dealt AA twice, KK and AKs.
But the table was so damn tight, couldn't get any action.
grrrrrrr

Was in pretty bad shape from the beginning and was down to 790.
SB 15 BB 30 Guy with 2200+ raised it to 630. I was dealt 77
on the Button. Why is this guy raising so much? nobody was in the
hand and it was folded to me. So guess what? I'm All In baby!
He calls and flips over AKo. The flop didn't help him and I double up.
Thanks.

So from there, I improved from finishing around 170th to finishing in 38th.
Of course, It would be most excellent if I finish 1st. Next time!

So I stuck around and played in a 5 Table SNG
was card dead the 1st hour but stuck around by stealing every
chance I got.

Down to 18 players, I was dealt ATo in LP, 1 limper and I raise it up. Got 3 callers.
(SB,BB, and UTG)Flop went 2T3 rainbow. Flop got checked around to me and the MoneyMate moves it in. SB and BB folds. UTG calls with KTo. Nice! ATo holds up and I double up.

Key Hand that lead to my victory. SB 200 BB 400 antes ??
Was dealt J8o in BB. Folded around to SB who completes the bet.
I checked. Flop went 832 rainbow. SB bet out 800 I raised it to 2000
He called. Ruh Roh! Then the turn came a Jack. He went All In for 6500.
I Had him covered not by much. I called. He flipped over QQ.
My 2 pair Jack and Eights were good. The SB guy was irate.
It was all over for him baby! Called me a stupid donkey on his
way out. I replied "gg" and he said "screw you". Ummm Ok.

I had a huge chip lead. I was the chip leader the entire time at the FT.
The MoneyMate is the Hatchet Man baby! I took them all out. LOL
Felt Good to finish 1st.

Pats self on back! picked this one up from MIKEJ :rofl:

I don't think I've ever written this much before. LOL

Cheers,
MM

BPT Event #7 The "CawtBloggin" Invitational

BPT decided to put a bounty on the host's head. Whoever knocks out Haley (nickname : CawtBluffin) will also get a seat in the BPT Grand Final on July 1.

The MoneyMate is coming after ya!

Tourney Update:

well it was pretty much a nightmare and was very frustrating.
Took me 10 minutes to finally get to the table. Logged In and was disconnected. Then when I finally got on, I'd already missed the 1st 11 hands. Throughout the entire tournament, the screen would frequently slow down, freeze, or sit me out. Other than that, I did
manage to get Top 5 chip lead thanks to a few key hands:

Hand #17, Raisin Ya raised to 240. sb 15 bb 30. at this point I was already frustrated with the whole software thing and was down to 1345 IIRC, so I'm thinkin' maybe he's got TT or JJ so with A7 suited I'm moving all in. He calls and I was surprised to see AKo. IGHN. I suck out and double up and cripple Raisin Ya.

Hand #41, sb 75 bb 150 ??? I think I'm 1 of the blinds or EP. Can't remember. I dealt Jd9d OhioMike and I see the flop. Flop goes 8d 7d 9c IIRC. I have Top Pair and Inside Straight Flush Draw. I bet 150. OhioMike raises to 400. I move in and he calls. He flips over A9o for TP. Turn is Jc and I forget what the river was.
The MoneyMate has Jack and Nines. And my All In holds up and bye bye OhioMike.

Last hand, at this point the software was really really bogging down and I was getting very frustrated. I had K8o and flop was 7K6 I think. The guy who knocked me out bet 800 and I moved in. He flipped over AKo and I didn't catch an 8. And this time it was "Bye Bye MoneyMate"

Finished 18/40 for $0.00 and a headache.
I'm not sure I'm gonna play the last 2 tourneys. This may be my last BPT.
Software is very sluggish and I'm not sure if I can take any more of it.

Good Luck to all who made the Grand Finale.

Oh yeah, had CawtBluffin at the table the entire time. Didn't even get a chance at
her and her chips :p

Cheers,
MM
