Payout 1st - $72, 9th - $5.62, KO = $0.50 3000 chips, 5 min blinds
I tried a more hands played approach and though I didn't really get more chips it felt better. Hand 3 I got a boost winning w/K8o vs Q5s with an all club flop that no-one hit. That gave me 300 extra chips. Nothing panned out after that and with hand 23 I crashed and burned.
Hand 23. I'm SB w/Ac Kc and down to 2695 chips. UTG+1 open raises 3 1/2 BB (210), HJ calls, rest fold to me and I decide to go all-in. My hope is they fold, but I'm comfortable with AKs if I have to continue. You really need some early chip building or you find yourself getting blinded out much quicker than you expected. I could have limped in and see what the flop held for me, but my preference was to get them to fold and pick up the 480 chips. BB folds and UTG+1 calls, HJ folds. UTG+1 shows pocket 7's (7h 7c). I have two overcards. It's almost a KO if I win as they would only have 130 chips left. Flop 4s 5s 3c. I have a gutshot straight draw and runner, runner nut high flush draw. Turn 9s. River 9d. I hit nothing, they win and I'm gone.
