Tourney Sweat!!

Unintentionally found my way into this when I didn't realize I wouldn't be be able to get T$ from winning my sat. In the hand below where I take the chip lead with about 65 left, the villain is batshit insane. I don't know if this is the right play here but if this 3bet/call is good against anyone, this player was about the best candidate I've ever seen:.

Field is shockingly weak btw.

Took first place at the Showboat $53+12 yesterday, first place was just under $1300. Its my biggest win so far. Thanks DC for great instructional work, much thanks to AMT as well in particular, and WiltonTilt for the math course.

Just won my first RAZZ SNG. Funny thing is, I never played RAZZ before, so I just kept on raising to make it end quicker.

Can't even tell you why I won. Went on a long time, and I never clicked anything but raise...

I just did my first Hubble's freeroll tourney on PS since I am a DC member, and I finished in 310th position on 12000 participants. If it would have been the usual MTT, I would surely have been in the bubble.

I had no choice but to go Hail Mary All-In with KHeart 9Diamond, but a King went on the flop. Sadly, my pair didn't resist the Ace on the River. Too bad, it's a suckout, but I now know I have made the right mathematical choice : 25695 for my 8491 gave me roughly 33% pot odds, and and I had 38.7% pot equity and 38.5% chance to win against Villain's hand (AClub 3Club). So, mathematically it was a sound wager.

It is my best MTT result until now! I must say I have greatly benefited from what I have learn on DC, and I have been member only since two days ago. Perhaps I could look over to SnG to make a few bucks here and there. Grin
