46th With a Bullet

I made it to the Tao of Poker 5th Anniversary of Awesomeness last night, and as luck would have it almost immediately had the Good Doctor seated to my immediate right. Which made for an awful lot of table chatter early on, which was fun. For an abridged version of my tournament, here we go:

Bleed chips

Get rewarded for weak play with AK

Lose chips with AK
Fold repeatedly

Jam 93s into ATs of the same suit, blind vs blind style. Win.
Jam, collect blinds and antes.
Jam, collect blinds and antes.

Jam, collect blinds and antes.
Jam, double up with K8o vs JJ
Jam, double up with TT vs 55
Jam with A9o, have lucko isolate with A9s, we chop
Jam AJ into KK. No win for me.

Long way of saying: I busted out in 46th, but kind of feel like I didn't deserve it.

Props to the Good Doctor for getting 500+ people along to his "private" tournament, and good luck to the (appropriate) winner of the prize.

Tao Celebration

Tonight is Pauly's 5th Anniversary tournament. I hope to be there, even if it is doubtful if I could make the Borgata tournament in the (extremely) doubtful event that I won. My parents are going to be in town over that time... but maybe they would be interested in visiting Atlantic City? I guess I'll burn that bridge when I get to it.
