Second tournament was 1.50 9 max turbo. Started off slow ten hands in I got frisky with king 6. Fired three bullets but ran into king queen with top pair queen on board. Down to 690 quickly. Fought for a while stole a couple blinds got it up to 1070 then.. get pocket eights. 3 bet it, at 30/60 blinds. I get a caller, 7/6/3 flop rainbow. I bet he calls 9 on turn club, so 2 now. I bet he pushes I call. He has King/6 clubs, thinking my turnament might be done but blank on the river double up to 1930. Raised again with pocket sixes get a re-raise for double my bet so i have him on ak or higher pockets, decide to see a flop. Hit the 6 on the flop check call check call until he hands over his chips up to 3500. Boring poker for while & get to final three leader at 6k third 3k im at 4. Three hands in the leader Dlemko1 takes out other player so im severly outstacked goikng into heads up. Four hands in he raises to 600 i push for final 3500 he calls. My eights vs ace/7 ace on the turn and my days done.
Overall the game play was different and will take some getting used to. I did not like that the screen didn't pop up in the heads up game to inform me it was my turn & cost me some blinds & could have cost me the tournament. I enjoyed the stats & was an enjoyable first 2 games, especially since I won. Taking a break for the night & will hit the felt tomorrow to try to get the
bankroll up so I can play some bigger tournaments.
Cheers.
