This was a bit of a new one. The early levels of the limit tournaments are pretty irrelevant, but I was able to win a nice size pot early when it folded around to J.J. Liu in the SB, who completed, and I checked my option in the BB with 2s2h. The flop came Qd3d2c, and she check-called my bet, before check-raising me on the 9c turn. I put in the third bet, her the fourth, me the fifth for the cap, and she check-called the Ah river before mucking Qc3c, a pretty sick cooler, but the early levels, as said, are pretty irrelevant.

 

I would take seven pretty sick beats in levels 2 and 3, getting as short as 1,200 chips, before slowplaying a couple big hands and getting my chips back. I won a pretty huge 6-way pot with AA, and was nearing the 7000 chip mark. Level 4 finally rolled around, and my KcKh ran into the BB, who defended Ks5s. He flopped a flush draw, some bets went in, and he got there. I then lost another pretty large pot with AhAd to Nicky Frangos, who defended 10d4d and hit two pair. My two pair didn’t hold against his own AA, and I was down to 1100 chips again.

 

In the cutoff, I raised 6d6s, and the BB, an absolutely terrible female player who was running incredibly well despite her horrible play defended. The flop was a nice AJ10, and she check-called. She reluctantly check-called the 10 on the turn as well. 300 of my final 350 chips went in on the river Q, and she just called. Q4o. Cute. The end.
