So Much

Wow I have so much to say today. I played a ton last night. I decided yesterday that I would much rather make a trip to Macau over the Bahamas. I am going to try hard and qualify for the Macau tournament. One of the things I liks is when you get to step 6 it is a one table SNG and they give away 4 SEATS! Can't beat that. I am also going to qualify for the Bahamas. That would be a fun two months. Here is my step results yesterday:

APPT
Step 1 (FPP) - Advance to Step 2
Step 1 (FPP) - Out
Step 2 - Back to Step 1
Step 1 - Out
Step 1 (FPP) - Advance to Step 2

PCA
Step 2 - Out
Step 1 (FPP) - Advance to Step 2
Step 2 - Advance to Step 3

So here are the tickets I currently have:
APPT Step 2
PCA Step 4
PCA Step 3
PCA Step 3

There were two very interesting occurences that came up during the SNG's.

1) In the APPT Step 1 there was a guy who played virtually every hand. He amasseda ton of chips, pissed them all away and then got a big stack again when this hand comes up. We are down to 6 people playing 50/100 (these are turbos). The big stack limps (with 3500 behind), I call from the SB (2000 behind) and the BB shoves for 130 total. The button calls and I call (I have Kd,4d). The flop comes down Q,Q,5. I check and the button bets 150. If fold and he shows 8,4! WTF!!!! THe BB had a K and wins the hand. So he bet me out of a dry side pot. I typed in: dik. He responds my saying: lol.

Fast ofrward and we are down to 5 people and I am down to 1500 in the 75/150 level. The "dik" was raising almost every hand. I raise to 300 with Ks,Qs he shoves and I snap call. He shows K,K. Fuck me. The flop comes J high and he types in "bye". Poker Karma comes around to kick him in the nuts and the turn and river roll out 10,9 and I get my double-up. I start typing lololololololollolollololololol. No response. We are down to 4 handed and the dick gets his money in with A,Q vs A,10. A 10 rolls off and he is eliminated. I typed in "karma is a bitch". hahahahahhahah! I end up winning my seat.

2) I am in a PCA Step 2 and we are down to 3 people. First and second get seats and 3rd gets a retry. The following hand comes up:

Button - 6500
SB - 2800
BB (me) - 4200

We are at the 100/200 level and the button raises to 600, the SB calls and I look at A,K. The button here could be raising with any two here. the SB calling means he is probably going with his hand. I decide to shove here knowing that the button is folding as high as QQ here. To my suprise the button CALLS and the SB rightfully gets out of the way. He shows down 6,6!!!! WTF is he thinking here? At best he is a coin flip and at worst he is a massive underdog. I have plenty of chips to take a sizeable chunk out of his stack. I hit my K on the turn and 4 flushed on the end for good measure. As it turned out since the other guy was so short he ended up getting his seat. Still don't understand that one though.
