the Donkey of Poker

I got mine.
I started the morning in a $3 buyin to the $5k on Players Cardroom, was playing some really good poker till I got donked on the river.  I would have to safely say yes to donk, because the other player even say he put me on a pair of 7’s or 10’s.  The tens would have gave me trips and he still called with a pair of jacks….I did have Kings, but there was a jack on the river….

I wanted to continue playing since I still was feeling good about my game, so I headed out for a smoke and toped up on my 1L cup of coffee.  When I came back there was a $6 tournament to the $10k, already started, I got in.  Seriously people how does anyone pass up these +EV opportunities?

Game On
It’s early game, first few hands I wanted to get a feel for the players simply cause it is a satellite and some players do play really bad, and some times players play really tight.  I got in with good hands so it worked out to find info, the cards didn’t produce anything other then giving me the image of a weak limper.

I was mixing it picking up some small pots, looking a little foolish at times, on purpose of course, no really its true…omg don’t say that your gonna make me cry “mommy”…

With the blinds at 50/100 I got dealt… well … I flopped the full house, and I checked it down to the river, while I knew the other player involved in the hand was tight, I had to check it to the river, where she hits the Jack for the straight, and I knock out a player.

The very next hand, I almost flopped a royal flush………
I did end up taken another player out.

When we got down to three players I had a feeling who I would be heads up with, 1 of the players just went on tilt after getting their aces cracked, but used that tilt to put on pressure and actually got them back in the game.  He ended up getting his chips back and sent us into heads up…
here were the chips stacks at that point.
Seat 2: THANGCO ( 6865 )
Seat 7: Assistanc3 ( 3635 )

It was a tought battle, we played nearly 50 hands in heads up.
Both with truly different styles as well.  There were a few times were I trapped him and played it just perfect only to get the dubious river card.  “oh why that card?”  Assistanc3 shouted at the freaking monitor only to realize he has 5, 4, 3, 2, ok I call…GRRRRRRRRRR

When the blinds went up to 200/400 it was done in 3 hands, it was all about who would get the best all in hand to hold up..much to the crowds pleasure of watching, we seen a flop.  I hit the flop, but he came out betting.  We seen the turn, I missed the turn, and again checked… he pushes all in, I call and my KQ, top pair holds up to his K2.
