This time there was a little over 70 entrants, same $100+15 buy-in. Tourney took about six hours and took home $2,850 for first. Everyone at the FT gets paid, which is 10 players.
Noteable hands :
Right before the FT I had roughly 32 (Chip lead) BB at 400/800/100 blinds. UTG+1 with 15 or so BB stack donkey limps as he has done every hand and it's fold to me in the SB. I look down at Ah5s and complete and BB checks. Flop comes 922 with two hearts and it's checked to UTG Donk and he bets pot. I've seen him overbet pot to steal every time it's checked to him and I don't put him on a credible hand at all so I call and BB folds. Pot is at now around 8-9k+ and turn comes 4. I check and he shoves for the rest of his stack which is a big ass overbet and it just didn't make sense why he would do that. When I did see him value bet he bets 2-3 BB each street and shows down TP almost every time. After a long ass time in the tank the only hand I put him on was a flushdraw and definitely nothing more because of his past plays. I called after about four minutes and he flipped over J8 of hearts and river came a 3c giving me the straight and sent him packing home which gave me a huge dominating chip lead like 4:1 to the second place in chips. At this point it was just cruise control to the FT.
Last really notable and sorta funny hand was at the FT where I looked at AA UTG after a few orbits at 700/1500/200 blinds and I had a bunch of $1K blue chips and no one else did and when I was stacking my chips a few blue went into my $500 chips so I take a stack of 10 chips, which I thought was all $500 to raise and just slid it into the middle but four blue chips was at the bottom and it was too late to take it back because it crossed the line so it was a raise to like $7,000 and players two down from me when all-in with around 9BBs, folded to button who goes all in for around 15 BBs and back to me. I obv call and shorty donk had QKo and button had JJ and ship it to me as they both missed and now I have Jamie Gold + Jerry Yang chip stack and after a few more players bust out leaving four left including me, they made another deal that I get first and they chip the rest.
Going back tonight as this is the last deep-stack tourney this has which mega sucks... Tomorrow I'll be going to the Grand Sierra Resort and rail the main event for a bit... I saw Vanessa Rousso (woof ) and Chad Brown there the other day, which is really my first actual "celebrity" sighting so that was cool. Oh yeah, I saw Michael Binger ( I THINK) when I went to the bathroom... he was walking out playing with his phone with an iPod on and we made eye contact and I think he realized I recognized him... Very zen moment .
