blogger event #7 the pub poker last stand!

well after changing the game from omaha hi/lo to a deep stack holdem tourny!that kinda suited me as ive hardly ever played omaha hi lo!after a brilliant day fishing the day before i was ready to face the bloggers in the final stand and last event of the 7 event league! to start off with my computers power suplly packed up so i had to quickly download poker.com on my dads computer. i turned up 30 minutes late and to my amazement was only down 45 chips which is pretty sweet considering you start with 5000 !after a few pot i found my self up to 7 k only to fall to 900 chips after folding a big pot!there was around 75 ppl left of the 112 starters and i thought to my self shit im gana fall out early and top 20 on the leaderboard may allude me. meanwhile my kiwi mate kanyezee was ripping up with a stack of 23 k at one stage coming 2nd place. He dropped half his stack and found it hard to come back falling out in 56th. well for me i dont know how but i won my blinds every round and tripled up on rockets to get back up to 7 k it was so funny coz i grinded my way to 18th position and secured my place in the grand final.
I ended up finishing 8th overall with no referal bonuses so i was pretty stoked with that effort i won $90 buks in preize money. my results were

Event 1 9th
Event 2 61st
Event 3 49th
Event 4 4th
Event 5 8th
Event 6 34th
Event 7 18th

Blogger tour event #6 Floplicious flop fest!!

gday again readers!
wel after a beautiful saturday paintballing and drinkin with some mates i was ready for another blogger event! i woke up with a bit of a hangoverbut battled through the tourny. i started of ok picking up a few pots so lasted well into the top 50 out of 132 starters including ryosei my flat mate AKA roselaura.(he got knocked out on k10 vs a10 with the 10 on the board gettin beaten by kicker) i battled through losing a few pots here and there but managed to pick up 34th position which i thought wasnt too bad. My best hand was qq so didnt really hit many premium hands but picked up a few little pots so i was happy with that should kee me in the top 20 on the leaderboard hopefully.None of the otherboys really gt to shine in this tourny but Xaqnautilis made the top table and was in great shape until getting knocked out 4th.oh well il go back to my day of being hungover on a yellowstone table or somethin. Oh and i pickup my new freezertoday too haha!
