K9 Finals

So last night we played the yearly finals for the Freeroll Tour and Money Tour. I was out pretty quick in the Freeroll final when my bottom set ran into top set. The eventual winner was Scott Drader who beat Bully HU to win his championship ring. I don`t think there could have been a more popular winner, Scott`s been with K9 since the beginning and although he`s clearly a good player he`s struggled to win events taking down only 1 I believe. Well he came good last night and took down the big one.

The Money Tour final went much better for me at least early on it did. I was in the top 3 for most of the game and genuinely fancied my chances once we were at the final table. The problem was the blinds, with the exception of the chip leader everyone was short-stacked and it became a bit of a lottery. My own demise came when I re-raised all-in with AKd and found out Moody had AA. I was so annoyed, I should have known his early position bet (as opposed to all-in) was a sign of strength and I should just have thrown that big slick straight into the muck. Still, hindsight and all that eh? I`ve got to learn to listen to those little voices in the back of my head. Desser eventually took the win battling back from a 5 to 1 chip deficit.
