The year started off rough. I played 4 SNGs on Fulltilt and got bad beat in all 4. I am down $135. Most of my loses came on the river. I am feeling very unlucky.
On the night of the 4th, I flew to Vegas. Thr next morning I entered a 30-player $60 tourney at the Flamingo. It normally paid out 3 spots. When we got down to 5 players, I was low on chips, so before I was the big blind, I offered a deal. Most players didnt understand, so they played another hand since the clock was running. Luckily I won the hand and brought up the deal again because the blinds were so high. I was tied for third, well behind second, and we struck a deal. I grabbed $270.
Later that day I played in the Harrah's JanuaryInvitational. It was a shootout, with the top 2 players at the table advancing to the next day. There were 55 tables, and 4 flights. I started off too aggressive to my liking, trying to steal blinds, and bluffing on low card flops, but always got raised. I tightened up, but got knocked out in 4th at my table. Oh well, it was free.
A bunch of my friends flew out, so I played table games with them the rest of the trip. I made decent money and ended the trip ahead (+$550), even after flight ($180), hotel ($0) and meals/drinks ($170).
I am back home, and trying my luck on Fulltilt again. I got knocked out first in a $50+5 SNG on a very bad beat. I called it a night.
Today I played in a $20+2 and came in 2nd ($54). Feeling better. Played in a $50+5 and was in the chip lead with 6 players left when I got my Kings cracked on the river when an ATs raises preflop, then re-reraises me allin. The A came on the river. I then get knocked out when my 66 got beat by an AKo.
Played in one more $20+2 and came in 2nd again.
