Week 10, 2009 - Not so epic

1st ($55 / 10pts): Aaron "4 Lives" W
2nd ($10/ 7pts): Ray "BattleShip" F
3rd ($0 / 4pts): David "So Close" B
4th ($0 / 2pts): Adam "85% to win 1 of 2" J

Low Stakes / 9 Players / 1 Table / 1:45am Endtime

Sometimes you don't play your best poker, and you still end up winning.

I had all my chips in 3 times tonight while behind.

Event 1: Pre-River All-In vs Stacy. 8 Outs, 17%, ~5 to 1. Right call on the river, wrong bets everywhere else. Hit. Stacy did not take this well. Sorry Stacy.

Event 2: Pre-Flop All-In vs Adam. A9 vs A10. 37.5% chance to win/tie. Board double paired and we split. Adam tasted blood here.

Event 3: Pre-Flop (sm)All-In vs Adam Q9 suited vs A10, AJ?. ~40% to win. Caught a straight on the turn. Ended Adams night.

I avoided danger elsewhere. The final 3 played very tight and well. Ultimately it came down to who hit something on the flop. Ray & I lasted 1 hand heads up. I hit on the flop, he didn't. Game Set Match.

I didn't notice at the time, but the game ended on my Birthday. So Happy Birthday to me.
