Got a bit ahead of myself and when nobody showed interest I tried to buy the pot on the J-J-10 flop, but good Irish kid in a wheelchair looks me up.

The turn is another J.....

I try again, he looks genuinely pained but eventually calls again.

I give up on the A river and he checks behind.

He shows.......A-K.

Not sure if that was a great call or a bad bluff, probably the latter. Guess I needed to fire again, but as played I felt unable. Certainly never had him on A-K.

Bugger. Back down to 19,000.

Shame really, I was going along real well, but that was probably a serious error.

3.5 hours in and I get the Aces for the first time, decent ones too:

 

Facing a pot bet already from Aggro Asian chap I 3 bet and in a flash we are both all in.

He has A-2-3-Q ss.

He is scooping on the flop, I equalise on the turn and it ends that way in something of an anti-climactic choppity chop.

Blinds 1,000-2,000 and suddenly I'm in the red zone with just under 10 Bigs. How did that happen, I was going so well 2 levels ago?

It's a shove fest now too, everybody is jamming and hoping.

Guess I'd better join them.

That'll do, and it's three way.

Dream run out, flop 2 pair and a flush draw, turn the flush and river the boat to scoop.

31,000 at 1.200-2,400.

Blinds now 1,500-3,000 so we are back to 10 Bigs again.

Just gotta find some decent material, get it in and hope.

Another break, blinds now go 2,000-4,000.

Around 70 left on 8 tables.

Only got 34,000, so it's double or bust now.

Pot it on the button with Bassetts against two tight blinds and both fold, probably just as well too.

In the Big Blind on my new table and with 28,000 at 2,500-5,000, facing an open from a similar stack round the back I happily decide to go with......

  three clubs

He has nothing and is (correctly) spinning, and I seem to be in good shape but it runs out real bad. We both turn a straight, his is a spot better, now I need to hit my low but it comes a high heart to give him a flush to go with his straight and I'm toast.

BUSTO.

Shame really, really enjoyed that, needed to win one more flip to give us a chance but it was not to be. Think the exit hand was the right play given my mini stack.

No complaints, think I maximised my situation except for that bad play on the J-J-J thing.

Night all.

FFS. Toss.

 Hopefully you can change the live RNG for your next game and tell the TD that you are a favoured player. That should do the trick. Obviously, you didnt want to make it obvious in the 1st game you played. Obviously.
