A Quiet Weekend

A quiet weekend pokerwise, I hardly played. Jumped in a Bodog sng whilst waiting for friends on Saturday morning and finished 3rd. It was a surprisingly tight game but I`ve noticed that during the day the players seem a little more clued up. The funny thing was one of my mates was watching me play and was completely shocked when I was mucking A-rag and hands like K-10, it gave me an insight into the mindset of someone who has only watched a little poker on tv and perhaps played a few friendly games.

I was shattered Saturday night having pulled an all-nighter but had promised to play a friends birthday tourney and of course the 5th Street Charity Ball. As I`ve said before on here I don`t play well when I`m tired and I made some horrible plays in Mimi`s game before busting out after an hour or so. In the charity game I was literally falling asleep and although it was still annoying when my AQ was beaten by AJ I was rather glad I could go to bed.

That meant I missed the Nordica badugi game, kind of a shame as only 7 played with the guy who got on my nerves the other night finishing in a fine 7th place lol.

Sunday I again had guests who left just as the 5th Street freeroll was starting. I had pretty awful cards throughout the early stages but made the final table where I picked up a few hands and finally took 3rd place for a little $20 cash.

It should have been the OPT Grand Final but the tourney wasn`t on the schedule so I`ll be playing it later in the week I guess. A 50k freeroll entry for 1st and 10k freeroll entries for 2nd and 3rd, only 17 players max I should stand a decent chance of cashing and there`s no reason I can`t win it.
