WWdN tourney

[10:07pm] Two hands after crippling myself, I'm dealt 99 so I jam. Up4Poker re-raises to isolate and turns over AK of clubs. Needless to say, it doesn't end well - read on... (I've deleted all lines that didn't really pertain to the hand itself)

PokerStars Game #4670836161: Tournament #22928623, Hold'em No Limit - Level VI (100/200) - 2006/04/18 - 22:01:53 (ET)

Robbie Robb said, "6"
*** TURN *** [8h 7c 5s] [Tc] <-- now a jack will help me out too (but not a club!!)! Seven outs. Unfortunately that gives CJ his flush draw. He has 15 outs.
Up4Poker said, "club"
*** RIVER *** [8h 7c 5s Tc] [5c] <-- His outs beat my outs. :-(
Up4Poker said, "sorry"

Seat 9: Robbie Robb (button) showed [9d 9h] and lost with two pair, Nines and Fives

So that ends my WWdN journey this week. At least they're always entertaining. For that, I give them +EV.


[10:05pm] Just crippled myself. My KTo ran into A9 and neither hand improved. Stupid Rob

[9:55pm] Nikki got knocked out of the tourney a while back. Her KQ ran into KT and was busted.

[9:35pm] Nikki just knocked Wil out of the tourney.

[9:30pm] We're on break. I got moved from Nikki's table a couple minutes ago. She was short stack at the table and the cards were VERY good to me. I was dealt AKo back-to-back and was followed up immediately with KTs (okay, not a GREAT hand...but playable). I did my best to send her to the rail but Sires jammed with Teh Hammer™ and was called by ATo. A ten rivered and sent Sires to the rail and closed the table - spreading us to the wind. Nikki landed at Wil's table so now it's her shot to send him packing.

[9:20pm] Heh. I just got moved to Nikki's table. Very odd.

[9:10pm] Not in this hand but check it out:

[9:05pm] After two good hands (one against Wil), I'm sitting in 9th right now. Long way to go though. 89 players left.

[8:45pm] Well, I'm playing the WWdN tonight. I'll do my best to bring you the action. 98 players, top 9 payout. First is $294. I'm sitting in 21st right now. I've got a monster table though. Wil Wheaton himself is at my table. ricoM, Up4Poker, Pastamancer - they're all here. As Up4Poker said - a veritable Murderer's Row at this table.
