PS 9 SNG $1 + .25 KO + .15 End 7th 24 hands won 1 KO for $0.25.

Poker Stars had 9 person SNG's w/KO. They add $$ for the KO so the base 1-3 winning is the same as in a regular 9 SNG. I won one KO for $0.25.

I got off to a good start 1st hand w/pocket 9's hitting my set on the Turn; the 3rd 9 also made it possible for a flush. Fortunately for me the other player only had top 2 pair from the flop. After that the cards went downhill for me except for the hand where my A4s knocked out the short stack KTo.

I had Kh 9c on the BTN w/2230 chips, I limped in with rest for 20. Flop Ks 7c 9h. Top two pair. UTG bets the pot of 120, UTG+1 calls, I raise to 320, UTG re-raises all-in w/1240, UTG+1 folds and I call. UTG has Kd Qc, having paired his K on the flop. I'm feeling pretty good about my chances of winning, then comes the Turn. Turn Qd. Rats, he now has top 2 pair. River 5s. I'm down to 970 in chips.

Last hand  I had As Kd as the HJ. Action folds to UTG+1 who limps in for 50, I raise all-in for 815, CO calls and the rest fold. CO shows Jh 10c. I have two overcards. Flop 9h Ac 8h. I've paired my Ace and feel pretty good about that but CO has an open eded straight draw and a flush draw. Turn 5s. One card to go to double up and be in this session again. River 7d and my hopes are dashed as he gets his straight.
