9 SNG $2 + .25 End 1st 81 Hands

Decent play. Took some hits early on and by hand 18 was down to 1040 chips. Improved along the way and by the time we got to the bubble I had 2465 chips (low stack). Other players had 4462, 3994, and 2579. We were all pretty close.

By hand 73 we were down to 3 players. Again I was short stack w/2994, next up had 3872, and the big stack, who had just knocked out the 4th player had 6534. Hand 74 I had pocket 6's (6d 6c) and hit a set with the 6s 3s 2s flop. Didn't like that it was all spades! SB bet 600 into the 800 pot and, to see where I might stand, I raised them to 1800. They then went all-in and since I had only 794 chips left, I called. Turns out they didn't have a spade, but only 8h 7c. Looks like it was a bluff on their part. Turn 9h, River 9d and I was now chip leader w/5988 chips.

Hand 80. I was BB w/Kc 7c.  BTN folded and SB open raised to 480, I called. Flop 2c 2s 9c. Board paired and I had a 2nd nut high flush draw. SB checked and I bet 480 into the 960 pot. SB raised me to 960 and I called. Turn Ks. I paired my K. SB went all-in w/3360 chips and I decided to call. He could have me beat and if he did I still had 1568 chips to work with, so all would not be loss. SB shows 9h 7h. He paired his 9 and has middle and bottom 2 pair to my top and bottom two pair. River 4c, giving me a flush and 11,168 chips to 2332 for the other remaining player.

Hand 81. I'm SB & have pocket 9's (9h 9d) and decide to open raise all-in. BB calls and shows Ah 7s, one over card. The board plays out: 6s 7d Kh 4h 8s and I win.
