Level 3 repeats the 100-200 blinds.
4 limpers and I make it 900 with A-A-Q-J with nut hearts.
They all call.
2-7-J, with two dingleberries,
Bet 3,500 into ~4,500.
Two callers.
High card please dealer.
4 of dingleberries.
Wisconsin pots it.
Can't continue, no point.
So back down to 20,000 again.
Very unfun.

Table move, to a new, empty table, soon populated by 3 players each of whom have 50,000 plus.
Seat 8, which is yuk.
Pretty sure Jeff Lissandro is seat 5, but he does not have his crucial hat on, so not 100% sure.

Level 4, 200-300.
Frantic start to this level, A-2-5-6 hit hard on the 3-4-5-6-10 board and we got both ends to zoom back above starting, just what I needed. Felt great.
Then fliopped a huge draw both ways and bet it strong 4 way. Missed the bloody lot. Was tempted to bluff the river but 4 way would need a miracle to get through. Zoomed back down to 19,000. Felt shite.
Just can't find that break through coup to get me to 30,000 and give me some wriggle room. Every time I get to starting I give it straight back.

Just done a bundle to Lissandro, and even worse, think he bluffed me off the river.
Had......
and called his 1,100 open.
Flop......
That's a beauty, and I bet out. Call.
Not what I was looking for, but I feel I have to continue with so many outs to both ends.
He calls again.
River.....
FFS.
Surely I gotta hit one of these draws soon.
Anyway, I can't find the bet and then he pots it........
Now I realise he has been playing me like a fiddle, and is almost certainly bluffing, but I can't find the call with my 4.
He puffs his cheeks out, gives it the "phew", and shows A-3 but not the other two cards.
Almost certain he bluffed me, and I got 100% owned. Guess there are worse players to be owned by, but that does not help.
Think I must have had half the pack running for me, any spade, and/or A, 2, 3, 6, 7 or 8?
Half starting stack now and a spanked bum.

2nd break, blinds now go 200-400.
Gave myself a talking-to at the break, I only have 12,000 but it's still 30 Bigs.
Will have to get lively now, and can't afford to make more than one mistake.

Got just under 50k. Is Lisa Y on pokernews a Blonde? I saw you got a few mentions, then realised I had a couple too.

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Not that I am aware of, but I chatted with her earlier and she is rooming with Jen Mason at Orleans, then Jen popped across to chat, so I guess we are getting elevated status.
50k? Great work David, keep it going.

Ah cheers. That makes sense. Just quartered, but still 40k+

Yay, at last.
3 way, raised pre, and I hit my nut flush with a card to spare when it looked likely both were on the nut low on the 2-4-7-Q flop and turn, so I go pot pot and manage to get my 11,000 in.
Both had to call with their A-3 and I get half of the three way pot.
16,500.

The cards are coming now, but not the boards.
Shortie, playing ~6,000 raises it up and I have A-A-3-5 with a nut suit. We get it all in, obv.
It comes K-6-6-9-J and he catches the chuffing 6 with his A-Q-6-3.
10,500.

Cards and boards coming now.
Raise it up and we are heads up v another shortie with:
Hit the flop as hard as hard can be:
And he wants to bet into me. All-in again, he has a low draw and 2-5-6 for the low draw and gutshot straight draw.
The lovely
arrives on the turn to pretty much lock it up, and another queen rivers for the full scoopio.
20,200, and right back in it.
Feels good.

Two hands later we have the nuts on the turn again v a fella playing 13,000, and we are one card away from the scoop with my high only flush, but he's saved by a low on the river.
Chop chop.
This is fun, now we are getting cards at last.

Feel much more settled now that I've had a bit of a run and got more involved.
Level 6 has 25 minutes left, and we have 40 Bigs, and the next level is 300-600, so north of 30 Bigs if current stack maintained. That's ok. Just need to find that break-through hand to get into the 30/40k range and we will be really cooking.
