Low Stakes / 10 Players / 1 Table / 1:00am Endtime
Tonight was a grind. As with all grinds, from my perspective, it was not very exciting.
I was never the chip leader until at least one round into the heads up match with Adam. Adam did the vast majority of damage at the table. He devasted most everyone's chipstack throughout the night and was firmly in control until the heads up finale.
Mick was out in 15 minutes, losing all of her chips to her husband. The second rebuy coming with an inconsequential pair against Adam's set of Kings. I think everyone at the table knew he had those. Come on Mick! Read the tells! :) I'm pretty sure that he rivered her on the first rebuy as well with one of his many straights during the evening.
This early ousting was particulary rough on the rest of table as Mick proceeded to share her love for Twilight and defending why her dreamy vampires twinkle like diamonds in the light vs bursting into flames. That performance, followed by a Central Market Peanut Butter sugar high, meant that we were averaging around 5 hands per round for the first 3 rounds. Rough.
Martin showed up late, left early.
Julie and Dave exited back to wetback.
Ray got caught in one of Adam's many rushes, which seemed to go on-and-on-and-on.
Margaret held on a long long time before exiting quietly in fifth place.
When we were down to five players, Adam had an enourmous chip lead with the rest of the table being +/- 15K of eachother. Adam had aquired this chip lead through hitting no fewer than 6 straights, at least 3 of which were river triumphs.
I can't recall how Paul exited. It was a small all-in I believe after being bled down round after round. Paul was very quiet the whole night. Shhhhh, the children are the sleeping.
Laura had worked up a decent chip stack before calling me down with mid-pair on a fairly large pot. After which, Adam and I had her outstacked fairly well and it was just a matter of time.
After Laura and Paul had exited, Adam & I were left heads up.
I had roughly 60K, Adam around 160K. The heads up match lasted 3 full rounds and swung back and forth several times. In the end it was my AQ vs Adam's pair of 6's. I hit a queen on the turn and an Ace on the river and it was over.
