Tour 62 $2 + .25 End 8th Won $2.62 180 Hands Sat to MiniFTOPS #26

Payout: 1-6 Entry ($20+ $2), 7th - $4.88, 8th - $2.62  6 player tables

Generally played decently. Hurt myself on hand 161 when I tried to take on the short stack that was close to me in chips. Five players, I was CO w/pocket 4's and open raised 2 BB, rest folded to BB who re-raised me all-in w/4831 chips. I decided to call. They had KJo, two over cards. The board played out K Q 2 K 6 and I was down to 1089 chips. It looked like I was going to go out 9th. To my surprise I suddenly found myself on another table and in 8th position. Another player had gone out on the bubble! That meant I at least would get my entry fee back + a big 12 cents!!

My new table had 3 players with stacks of 18,965, 18,164, and 13,545 to my 1788 chips!! I decided if I was to have any chance at all, I had to play only decent cards, at least at the start, as I felt if I went all-in, it would be likely one of those three would be willing to call me just to knock me out. I picked up a few chips, had a hand with pocket K's as BB and  as you would know it, no-one made a bet. .

Hand 180, last hand, I was BB w/2488 chips (blinds 150/300/ante 25) with Jc Qd. BTN & SB limped in w/300 and I decided to just call. Flop 7s 6s Qs. I didn't like all those spades but I did have Q high pair. SB checked and I decided to bet all-in. If he has two spades, so be it. BTN folds, SB calls,  and shows 9s 6d. I have some hope to double up.Turn Ks. Hopes dashed!! River 2d. I'm outta there.
