throwemaway 0 Posted August 7, 2006 Share Posted August 7, 2006 Here is the dreaded middle stages of the tourney..This is probably where I struggle most..I usually can find a way to double early, and end game I think I do extremely well at, since when I FT these, I almost always go top 3 or 4..This tourney, I think I did (fairly) well w/ the middle stage, albeit a few slip ups, which were bound to happen I guess since I play a bit more loose aggressive during this stageHand #112 Table '29415688 20' 9-max Seat #9 is the buttonSeat 1: ZOEYJUST (11689 in chips) Seat 2: Snake 1st (2565 in chips) Seat 6: throwemaway (23155 in chips) ZOEYJUST: posts small blind 200Snake 1st: posts big blind 400*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to throwemaway [Jc Jh]throwemaway: raises 800 to 1200ZOEYJUST: calls 1000Snake 1st: calls 800*** FLOP *** [Qh 6s 2c]ZOEYJUST: checks Snake 1st: checks throwemaway: bets 2000ZOEYJUST: folds Snake 1st: calls 1340 and is all-in*** TURN *** [Qh 6s 2c] [8d]*** RIVER *** [Qh 6s 2c 8d] [9d]*** SHOW DOWN ***Snake 1st: shows [Th Td] (a pair of Tens)throwemaway: shows [Jc Jh] (a pair of Jacks)throwemaway collected 6480 from potPutting the fear of God into people...Hand #117 Table '29415688 20' 9-max Seat #6 is the buttonSeat 1: ZOEYJUST (9964 in chips) Seat 6: throwemaway (26370 in chips) sextrain: posts small blind 200philtage99: posts big blind 400*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to throwemaway [Ah Td]ZOEYJUST: calls 400throwemaway: raises 1000 to 1400ZOEYJUST: folds throwemaway collected 1600 from potAnd then getting snapped offHand #119 Table '29415688 20' 9-max Seat #8 is the buttonSeat 6: throwemaway (27520 in chips) Seat 8: philtage99 (4367 in chips) LIVZ1973: posts small blind 200ZOEYJUST: posts big blind 400*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to throwemaway [5d 7d]throwemaway: raises 800 to 1200philtage99: raises 3142 to 4342 and is all-inthrowemaway: folds philtage99 collected 3200 from potTable '29415688 20' 9-max Seat #3 is the buttonSeat 6: throwemaway (26245 in chips) bowdown7493: posts small blind 200Kras: posts big blind 400*** HOLE CARDS ***Dealt to throwemaway [Ac Jh]throwemaway: raises 800 to 1200Everyone foldsthrowemaway collected 1175 from potThis hand was played poorly..I think I should have raised the flop, but I didn't want it to cost me too much to find out if he had a hand he loved..Hes one of the players that can damage my stack severely so I played this hand real weak/tight I think...Also it should be noted we were 6 handed here onlyHand #125 PokerStars Game #5811328807: Tournament #29415688, $4.00+$0.40 Hold'em No Limit -
