Rush Tour 135 $4 + .40 End 64 40 hands

1st Rush Tournament I've played. It has 3 min blinds but ups the chips to 2000 at the start. Pays top 15. Is fun. My play was fair

Hand 15. I have 1350 chips. I got lucky. I'm BB w/Jd 2d, SB limps. Flop 3s 2s 2c. I hit trip 2's w/a fair kicker. SB goes all-in w/735 chips and I call. SB shows 3d 6d. Turn 7c River 4d. I win.

Hand 32 luck went the other way. I have 1845 chips. UTG w/Ac Kd. I open w/a 3 BB (240) raise, all fold to HJ who raises all-in w/his last 570 chips, rest fold, I call. HJ shows Jd Js. I have two overcards. Flop 4d Jc 5h. Not a good flop for me. Turn Kh. River 9s. Not much else happened until the hand 40.

Hand 40. Blinds are 50/100. I have 875 chips in UTG+1 position w/pocket 6's (6h 6d). UTG folds, I raise all-in, MP calls, CO re-raises to 1650, rest fold and MP calls. Flop 8d 7c 3d. MP checks and CO bets all-in w/1390, MP calls. MP shows Ad Ks, CO shows pocket J's (Jh Js). I NEED a SIX! Turn 2s. River 10s. And so my 1st Rush Tournament ends.

I'd like to the blinds to be a bit longer, but otherwise it makes for a much faster play in a tournament, at least to the final table and I imagine there are slowdowns when you get to the last 3 or 4 tables.
