237 of 669 - $15,000 guranteed tourney

My first poker room tourney in some time. I need some honeymoon money. I was happy to see the new poker client gave big boob girl a reduction between versions. I usually felt embarassed for her. She use to look like Vegas trash and now she looks like Catherine Crier with unsmiling mug.

I doubled up early when a flush draw went all-in against my set of 2s. My first bad beat was going all-in against the short stack with my AK v. AQ and he drew the lucky two pair.

160 players dropped in 30 minutes.

First bluff - I hold AT - The flop is A92 - I check and call $100 - the turn is another 2 - I check and the bettor lays down $500, I figure him for a better kicker. I go all-in representing the third deuce, and he has to lay it down.

First Break $4520 - 63 of 297

I finished 237 when the big stack bully tried to get me off top pair and top kicker and drew out on me with two pair. Discretion may have been the better part of valor, but I couldn't believe he had anything but a stack.
