Own A Piece of Estelle

[hott_estelle]

256th out of 644 at first break.

I think so far play has been decent. Table I'm at right now seems fairly straight-up, only crazy maniac we had busted a few minutes ago. I do have the chip leader of the tourney to my right, and best part is that it seems like he's more than willing to gamble a lot of his chips on marginal hands at best, so very loose. Might be able to chip away or even double up from him, or he might bust me by getting lucky, but that's the chance we'll have to take if we get involved in a pot with him.

At the moment, sitting on about a 3300 chip stack, which is exactly the average stack in the tourney. Considering how close I was to busting with having only about 500 chips left within the first 10 or so minutes, I think it's going fine so far. I could possibly have about a thou or so more in chips, had I not misplayed one hand, but besides that I think everything has been fine.

Flopping sets love me today. May have pushed a bit too much, but with so many people in the pot, with a bit of weird board, wanted to establish hand right away.

Well, obv, overplayed AK preflop. Had a beat on the guy who raised, from UTG I saw a couple of his hands, whne he made about a 4xBB raise he had low PP most of the time, and didn't want to get called, and he was definitely type of player that folds low PP to big all-in raise. Was a bit OOP, I probably shouldn't have made the move, with my chip stack and position with blinds no need, but I wrongly assumed it would be HU with just original raiser. Obv, I was wrong, and out in about 440th place. Sorry about the misplay guys, but I will be playing another probably later tonight, not a part of the 24 MTTs, but still and MTT.

I feel like playing a couple SnGs right now, and then I may be going out, but possibly when I get back home later tonight.

I'll try and post worthwhile hands and updates on here.

 

[mrsnake3695]

I think I'll get in also but I can't now because I'm at work and can't access pokerstars from here. So when I get on my home computer if your not sold out I'll get in. I think I'll also get in storms if it's still open.

As far as if this should be ok to do on CC or not. Personally I think we should allow it. Backing poker players is a long time acceptable practice by poker players all over the world. I'm sure everyone knows CC isn't responsible for any deals made between members. This is way different from "loaning" somebody with 1 post money cause they are begging. members should know who are decent players worthy of backing and who is trustworthy or not.

Maybe there should be some rules or restricts thought. Such as minimum posts or loyaler status or something. And, if accepted, maybe a seperate sub-forum.

 

[hott_estelle]

Might have played it a bit soft on turn, and might have been able to get a bit more, but I don't think this guy calls a push on river.

Well, there it goes. I really think his check on the turn threw me, I probably could have slowed down there, but I didn't. Here's what I was thinking, I thought he had a big hand the whole way, first few hands I've seen from him he seems like a very tight player, raised once with QQ. Anyways, after flop, the way that it was played to me, after I reraised the only thing I didn't want to see on the turn was a K or a Q, because I was pretty positive he had KKs or QQs.

Well of course, K hits, and well I check, with basically full intent on folding if he raises big here, because its early, there's a short stack allin, and well I'd see his cards. He checks behind me. So now I'm thinking YES, he only has QQs or JJs. Blank on river, I bet out the amount I believe he will call with QQs or JJs here. Then he thinks for a while, and eventually pushes.

That got me to completely stop. I thought OK, maybe he did have KKs and checked on turn to get me thrown off. But then, I thought, no I still put him on QQs or JJs, I don't think this guy is capable of slow playing KKs on turn. I think he believes that my check on turn meant I was bluffing with mid-low PP and he thinks he can get me to fold with a push.

So I call, should have stuck with original read and folded but o well.

Hey, I'm registered in that tourney,too.

 

[hott_estelle]

Playing in a$5 SnG right now to warm-up and get used to the $5 level play, again. The SnG might run over a little to the beginning of the MTT but it should be over relatively soon, FT right now.

So no worries, full concentration will be on the MTT.

 

[hott_estelle]

Like only 3rd hand, no reads, his minraise seemed a bit fishy, but who knows. He could have had AA/KK or been a donk with K10, who knows, but I ended up folding.

This is the type of play I have to deal with for the first hour or so I'm guessing. I think I'm really regretting I didn't decide to do $11 MTTs for this backer series, but oh well, just have to try to make it through the mind field for the first hour.

Will be playing a bonus MTT because of quick bust outs in past two, in like 10 minutes.

MTT #5

Tourney ID #52339383

Had a donk almost stack me by calling an all-in with just a gutshot straight draw with two cards to go, which he hit, was down to about 200 but somehow built it back up (well not somehow, that same donk doubled me up 3 times eventually, to get me back in business). Sorry, forgot to post until now.

1st Break has passed, I'm still at about 2000 chips, havn't played many hands since I was really short stacked, no HHs worth posting at all. I need to get uncard-dead soon, or else I'll have to start making moves when I don't want to.

 

[hott_estelle]

Well, I busted out about 20 or so spots from the money.

I had a low stack, about 3000 chips with blinds at 100/200 ante 25 about to go up to 200/400, I had the nut flush draw and a straight draw off the flop, and I pushed, got called, didn't hit either draw, and there is goes.

So far update on the MTTs, played 5 official MTTs for the backers and a couple bonus MTTs, and well ITM finishes in 3 so far.

19 more official MTTs to go, and a few bonus MTTs along the way I'm sure.

MTT #6 Started about 15 or so minutes ago I think.

Tourney ID# 52339554

Nothing drastic has happened so far. Will post more as things get interesting.

 

[hott_estelle]

I seem to always go carddead when I play these things for you guys, I believe I folded about 40 or so hands in a row (possibly more), and I didn't even get any marginal hands during that time like J10 suited, ect. But no worries, I'll get a big cash for you guys for sure before this is over. Anyways, here's what happened:

I finally pushed there at the end, short stack, HU with a button raiser, who really could have had any two cards.

Was isolated with button, I was SB, and BB was sitting out. Folded around to button, button raised 375 (blinds being 75/150) I had about a 1400 or so stack, I repopped all in with just K8, thinking he was stealing with BB sitout. He called. He had I AJ, everything missed, and I busted.

So once again, not that great of a finish. I will be playing another bonus MTT for sure tonight, I will post again, hopefully better luck and some cards this next time.

Sorry guys for lack of play in past few days. Just been busy these past few days. I will get started on this again most likely on Friday. After these next few days pass, I shouldn't be as busy anymore since I'll be completely settled in by then.

Yea, about around there.

I think I'm up to about $30 or so dollars in cash, mostly from the bonus tourneys, the $5.50 MTTs have been getting me early last few times I've played them, but I think I've adjusted to them by now.
