Played in the MATH last night and did pretty well but still not good enough. I made it to the final table but busted out in 8th place two spots before the money. I really need to learn to lay down mid pair cards. With eight people left and the blinds getting extremely high, I think most of the players had an M value of five of under which is nuts, I found 66 in MP and decided to raise and hopefully steal the huge blinds out there. Unfortunately someone raised all-in two after me and I had a decision to make. Earlier I saw this guy pushing with Ax a few times and hitting. I called figuring I was at least a slight advantage. He flipped over KQo and I made the right call but the AKQ flop sent me packing. Oh well, you live and learn. Now I just need to learn to get away from those races. I'm sure hoy and a couple of others have noticed that about me and my donk moves. Time to step it up and start playing smarter. At least the final table appearance helped push me up in the BBT leader board. I'm still trying to get into the top 25 and if my play keeps improving like it has I think that it's quite possible to achieve.
Quick Sunday recap: Played, loss a little bit. Played in a $5.50 MTT, got so tired of the donk races and horrible played that I decided to play Gears of War on my Xbox 360 while playing the tourney. Whats sad is I still made the money without trying, fcuking losers.
Ok, I'm really upset right now because it has now been close to a year now since my last trip to Vegas; very sad I know. What makes things worse is the World Series of Poker is going on right now and is something I would really love to at least go see. Also I keep reading how almost all the bloggers are going to be heading out to the city of sin. What sucks is I have all next week off because I needed a break from work but no money to make it out there. Right now I am missing the bright lights, gambling and debauchery that takes place. I need my fix but like most junkies I don't have the green. Maybe I can knock over a liqueur store to get me there...
