The dream just ended......

What a fun day it was.

I started slow....by choice. Played tight and very few hands, but as the evening got going, the hands I did play, I won. At the four hour dinner break, out of 833 entrants only 684 were still playing and the average chip stack was 3650. I had 655o. Not bad!!!!!!!

Levels 5 & 6 were not so kind. The hands I won were split pots (usually on the river.) and I took a couple of tough beats. But I got to the end of level 6 still with 2400 chips and we were down to 400 players. The blinds were 200/400 and both of my blinds got raised with lousy cards. So on the 2nd time around I was down to 1800. the guy too my right busted out and they moved Men "The Master" to that seat. I treaded water for the next 30 minutes. On my next big blind I got all my chips in (even though Gabe told me to never go all-in.....guess I should have listened!!!!!) with pocket aces. I was head up against 1 player. Flop came K,J,7 giving him a pair of kings against my aces. The turn was a harmless 9 and the river was a 3 which seemed harmless enough until I realized that it paired a 3 in his hand giving him two pairs which knocked out my Aces. Oh well.

Not sure if I could be any more tired. Lights out!!!!!!
