Foxwoods and Cotterpalooza 2

Spent Saturday in Mystic and ate at Mystic Pizza.
Pizza goot. Too many pics of Julia Roberts et al Bad.

Pretty non descript tourney.

Take the 1st hand down with A9 clubs and that was my 5th best hand all day!

Got nothing in the way of cards and when I did someone else had a better hand.

I went out when SoxFanatic on WPTFan or FTheYankees on FTP open pushed in the SB. I look down and find A8 clubs and know he can make this move with any 2 and I call. He as AK hearts or diamonds and HHIG. IGHN. TYVM. NH. GG. See ya next year.

Met some people who I have really enjoyed reading. Heather (Devil), David (Duq), Michelle (MK) and quite a few others. It was a great time even with the end result added in.

On the way out my wife asked me what was in May as she heard others talking. I told her it was Project Mayhem and in AC. She told me I should go.

Well we are going to Vegas/Grand Canyon in April so I can't really justify the spending but still Debbie teling me to go is awesome. She's not comfortable with the aspect of gambling but she knows that Ii play to my limit and never go everboard. So maybe with a nice little tourney score online or in Vegas I'll make the trip to AC.

Time will tell.

Another online player/poster Peter Feldman (Nordberg everywhere online) qualified for the WPT event at the Borgata and got into the $$ and played the short stack like an expert all day.

He took an awful beat to go out in 7th place. Top 6 make onto TV.

He called a reaise and an all in before him. THe original raiser folded and it was 2 players to see the board.

Villian had AK and Peter had AA.
At the end there was a J, a Q and a 10 on the board to give villian the win and knock Peter out.

He seems pretty grounded and aside from the initial disapointment I don't think it will effect him at all.

He turned his $26 into $73000 so all in all it was a good 3 days.
