WSOP Circuit Events in Hammond, IN

Ok, I gotta went. Big time.

As most of Merge regulars noticed, I wasn't playing any tourneys this month at all. Polayed some in the beginning of the month, then took some break. On top of that WSOP Circuit came to Indiana and I decided to play in few of these events. It's like an hour drive from my home to Horseshoe Hammond casino...

I decided to play in bigger buy in events, since it's less donking going on.

Event #3. I wake up in really good poker mood, get ready f0r long session of poker. Feel so good before the tournament that only at the last highway exit I realize I forgot my wallet with ID. OMFG. I turn around, get back home at around 11.15 am and realize I won't make it back on time since tourney starts at 12pm. Awesome. Instead I go to my soccer game and we get a tough "W"

Event #9. To make long story short, was playing great game, made to second day. 1st place ~56K. 14 get paid. Busted 18th with QQ vs A10 preflop. Awesome.

Since I lost in event #9 and right after that they had satellite to main event. Ok, I register to that one. ~120 ppl made 350+ rebuys. Sick action.

10 Places get a seat to main event. 11th gets $3300. Long story short- I busted 12th w AJ s w Q10. Bubble boy.

Event #12. Prety much was on top of my game. Made some sick calls, played pretty good. Didn't really help.

one of my last hands- I have 18K. Less than 100 ppl left. 36 get paid. Blinds 400-800 ante 100. Raise w JJ 2300. Everyone folds. BB is like 15K deep. Pretty tight guy. he thinks for a second and shoves all in. I played with this guy for a few hours now and I think for a while that this shove doesn't make any sense at all. First instinct- he thinks I'm stealing and he is using his tight image to push me off my bluff. Would not push against me w QQ, KK or AA. Maybe some small pair or worst case scenario- AK. I call. he flips 23 clubs. Tried to make some move.

Table explodes in "oh my god", "wtf" and etc.. Nice hand. I have like 3500 left. Double up next hand w 77 vs A4. Funniest thing- lady who called my all in is bitching that she lost that hand. Had 3 outs and didn't hit. And made a speach like I sucked out on her. WTF people are thinking sometimes?

Still on life support. I'm small blind. C/O raises. Button calls. I wake up w AK on SB. I ship it. raiser folds, button calls w 77. I flop the Ace and he starts screaming at the dealer how fucking bullshit it is. Turn brick, river 7. Thank you very much. People at the table feel sorry for my ass, but that doesn't really help me. I shake hands with everyone since the table was very friendly, wish them good luck and pack my stuff.
