It's so nice to run good, but I still need to run good tomorrow to make any real money. I'm 4/9 heading into tomorrow's final table of the Wsop-Circuit SD $550, Karec is 5/9. Only 158 players showed up though, so its only $25k to win, but they are giving rings out again for circuit prelims, so I could get me some hardware.
We started today with $8k in chips, and I quickly was down to $6k or so losing AK on a AK6 flop and KK on a J66 flop, where I called this aggro guy's checkraise and then a J turned and I just gave it up. I built that up to 13k after 3 bet shoving AQ on a Q74 board against the same aggro guy's checkraise on the flop. Lost a 26k flip a bit after that while average stack was probably around 12 or so. That left me with 2k or so, got that up to 5k then ran AT into KK at 300/600, to put me down to just 900chips.
That's where the hardcore luckboxing started, as I had just 1.5 big blinds. I got A5 all in vs Q2 and held, then I shoved 2500 at 300/600 with J7o, guy calls, another guy calls, then a guy shoves, first guy calls, other guy folds, so I'm getting over 4-1 on my money. They turn over A6 and JJ, so I'm dead, like 6% to win. Flop comes 976, so I have some sweat, turn is the beautiful 7 ball and I've quadrupled up to 10k or so. I build that up to 20k or so, don't really recall how. Then I pick up KK and run into AA but again I suck out huge and now have 40k or so, get QQ to hold vs AJ, have 60k or so. With about 25 left I win AQs vs 88 to put me up to 100k, I win K6 vs QT for 30k, and then with 10 left win TT vs AJ for about 80k to put me up to 147k going into tomorrow. Run like that tomorrow and I may just go ahead and win.
