So, I'm going to play the NL500+100kr Freezeout at the Casino tomorrow with two friends. Goal: Getting in the money. 80 players, top 9 get paid.
So as usual we had our "after work" yesterday, lot's of beer, wine, cider and pizza at work. Then we played a poker tournament. Buyin 100 swedish crowns (~$14). To my surprise we were actually 24 people, top 3 get paid. So at my table I was playing very aggressivly. We had 3 tables with 8 players on each table. I only knew about one player on my table, my boss who is a solid poker player. Anyways, I eliminated 5-6 players by myself on my table. So things were looking pretty good. Key hands from the first table; A10c on the button. My boss sitting under the gun raises to 500 (blids 25/50). One caller, I reraise them allin. Both of them call, my boss shows AJoff and the other one shows KQoff. My lovely 10 comes on the turn. I had taken out 4 people prior to that hand, so I had a good amount of chips now.
Down to two tables now, since I had such a chip advantage, and I wanted to come itm so I tightened up my game (doesn't work with beer). Stole acouple of blinds, then I tried a bluff where this danish poker pro whom instead doubled up. He is a $15/30 $25/50 player if I remember correctly. So we are down to 3 people, and I got about 35% the danish guy had 50% and the third guy had about 15% of the chips. I let the third guy double up on me, so I'm very shortstacked, but I find AQoff in the very next hand and go allin. Both of them call and check it out with 22 and KQ. I find my Ace on the river and I'm doing ok again. So the danish guy takes out this other guy and he has a 3v1 chip advantage. We steal a couple of blinds, but he finds 66 and I find A2s, no ace came but I still won 800 swedish crowns.
Some people were playing cash games, by this time I was fairly drunk but I thought what the hell. So they were playing 1/2 blinds with a min buyin of 300kr (roughly $50 and the blinds are ~0.10/0,25). First couple of hands I couldn't find anything, so I basicly folded. Until I found KK under the gun, I reraised up to 12. 2 callers. Flop came 2-8-8 rainbow, I check he bets I call. Turn came a K, I check again. He goes allin with about blinking ' insta call! I probably doubled my money, another hand that I found was AJoff where I raised and 2 people went allin with 60kr, I call. One person had KK, the other had 910h. flop came 10-8-6. a 9 came on the turn, and ofcourse a 7 came on the river giving me a staight. We were only 3 people playing, and on them wasn't that good. But once again I had to sit down with my boss. The final and biggest pot of the evening. my boss had been making these crazy raises, like in a 20-30 crown put, he would make a bet of 200. Since it was dark and I am colorblind I had trouble with the colors of the chips, but my boss had trouble too and accidently raised up to 55 instead of 15. I call with K4s (it felt right at the time). Flop came 5-3s-5. I bet out 300kr, just like he had done. So he started discussing with this guy from pokermagazine what hand I could have. They probably went over the hand for about 10 minutes, putting me on a AK, AQ. I knew he had 3, so I started to trashtalk a bit, in hope that he would fold. He pushed, and I was committed so I called. Turn 2 of spades, river 8 of spades - giving me a runner runner flush so a little over 1000kr in that pot to me
I left the office with 1700kr (~$240) in my pocket - after buying in for ~$14. I met up with my roommate and some of his friends, grabbed a couple of beers and went out. I spent about 700kr on taxis and various shit, so I have 1000 left.
I played 30 min of poker on the internet prior to the poker tournament and won a sh sng $10+1 (my speciality ) and I 2 tabled NL10 and made about $50.
Oh, and if some still has someone "diets" or a weekly food schedule for eating healthy I would be very thankful
