So i showed up late to event 2, its a $1500 freezeout.. right now they calculated around 850K for first place.. and i have no idea how many entries.. anyway i showed up late and looked for my seat, and someone is in it.. and im like uhhh... how do u fuck that up?? The guy sitting in my seat was supposed to be at table #10 and he was at #15 for some reason... anyway i sit down and across from me at the table is Carlos Mortensen, i noticed he was raising alot and started to build up a big chip stack..
At the first break i called peachy and got some background on carlos and then started playing back at him a bunch, i had already doubled up with a set so i was at like 5ish thousand chips with blinds 75/150.. anyway i started playing back at carlos and raping/coolering the shit outa him, b4 2 long i had all his chips and was sitting around 20K very early on.. then i got fuckin doom switched cuz jon pham? i duno how to spell his name.. anyway he is a veit live pro and i gotta say his style mixed with his post flop play and table talk... is rly hard to combat.. also he droped in the table and insta stacked off like 3 or 4 ppl..
Jon sat with around 15K in chips, and it quickly grew to around 30K or more.. then him and i got in a huge hand, he is sitting directly to my right.. were both in late position, he raises 4bbs, i repop to 12bbs blinds fold, he stalls, and flats, board is 10 4 2 rainbow, jon bets like 10bbs or something, very small.. i reraise him up, and commit my self.. he goes into the bank for lke 5 mins... im tired of fucking trying to not give off tells... ( which i think is the only reason carlos was still there, he picked off some of my tells and was able to fold ) anyway i have to call the clock on jon , he floor gets over and ends up counting it all the way down and deads his hand.. i pick up that pot with QQ, and he keeps asking me weather i had AA KK or AK or maybe JJ, so after 4 hours of that i pretty much figure i got him to fold QQ.. its very rare and all but it all def makes sence.. anyway he kept running over the table and i kept getting shorter...
i kinda gotta go off to day2, but im at like 16.4K with 500/1000 blinds and 100 ante.. im not doing so well but the cash bubble breaks very soon and hopefully i can do some damage.. and i wont have to deal with the tourny chip leader to my right..
anyway im off, gl to everyone else thats in it!
