Not good news from the 1k.
Lost a few early pots in the first couple of levels, two notables included opening
from the CO, getting peel by the bb and calling a raise on Q64cc. I called the T turn too and checked back a brick river to be shown AA.
Then had one where weak rec MP limps @ 50/100, French HJ makes it 225, so I make it 725 in the CO with AK. MP peeled and then the French guy makes it 2250. Seemed really FOS to me, his ISO sizing pre was so small, can't imagine he'd make it 225 with premiums, but obviously not keen on 3/5/7ing 170bb pre antes, so i just peel the 2250.
Flop Q56 check check, turn 2, he bets 2k, i call. River 9 he bets 4k and i reluctantly fold. Maybe should just fold turn, but felt so weird. He may well be bluffing river with better hand, or maybe he somehow had it.
Anyway that all meant i made dinner with 14k going back to 300/600. Peeled a HJ open from the btn with 97cc and float Q65c, bet J turn and get called
. River a 9, which i felt was good quite a lot vs this specific villain (opened super wide and c-bet 100%). But he had KQs on this ocassion.
Got a 3-bet jam through with AK but was then pretty card dead and ended up jamming HJ for 9.5bb with KJo and getting a tank call from bb with A8o. Lots of bricks and I was out.
Real shame because it got tonnes of runners and my table was really really soft. Think i misplayed a couple of hands early on, but was really focused on grinding it out, it just didnt happen. Was a bad comp for the boys, most of the group had bust before me!
On to the HR. Going to rest up tomorrow as i'm feeling a bit drained atm
