$17 $150 Gtd Good Morning

Posted by Assistanc3 On February - 23 - 2009

So I haven’t gone to bed yet, yes I know I told ya’s on yahoo that I was going *yawn* to bed, but I started wondering how many, well have I yet… hit my 20,000 hand played on Players Cardroom

I haven’t yet, but there was late registration for the $150 Gtd.  These little guaranteed games usually have a big overlay and with the usual’s playing it makes it a little easier to cash out after exploiting them.

I jumped in to this game, and just played my normal style of poker.
LOTS of folding and trapping and watching my blinds disappear : (

I posted in the hand history section of the forum titled
Who is the King of Trapping where I limp in under the gun
and smooth call a late position raise ;)

Basically that hand folded me in to the money and then I didn’t even realize I was at the final table, in pretty good shape.  Lots of small and medium chip stacks  and one big stack.

Khillerbee who ended up wining this tournament.

I went out in 4th place, taking down $17.70
it was a $150 Gtd trny, with 59 entrants made the pool $177

I have attached my stats from when we hit the final table and end game also included….. the usual 72

    A good start to the day, or finish, considering you haven’t been to bed yet….

    Watched the 72 strike again, vs the A2, I just smiled :)

    Nice play with those Kings, it’s hard for me to fight the temptation of making big bets with cards like those… smooth playing obviously paid off.

    Great job, now go get some sleep and do it again tonight ;)

    These games on PCR you do see a lot of the same players, so if your taking notes then it should be easier to get chips.

    was a good start to the morning.
