Easter weekend

Well, this weekend was filled with drama. Friday night some idiot hit my car as we were almost home. Then I had to get up early to get my new tires and rims on my car, which I had waited 2 weeks to get because FedEx lost one of the rims, nice.

Then Sunday on the way home from Easter get together Pierce County who is doing some roadwork left a huge pothole that was swallowing rims left and right, hub cabs strewn all over the roadway. Needless to say, that hole destroyed one of my brand new rims. Now I get the pleasure of dealing with the local government to get satisfaction for their negligence.

On a brighter note I did finish ITM in a SNG in the morning where I was down to 1BB 4 handed. I did not give up and survived for 10 more hands with the blinds at 75/150 to finish 3rd. I was fortunate that I was playing 3 people that really did not know what they were doing short handed in a SNG. We had a big stack that had 8x the chips of everyone else and didn't know how to play them. He actually would fold his button to two short stacks. It was very very sad. I then went over to the in-laws and crushed the family NL game, which was nice. I really pissed my wife off when I sucked out on her with A7o against her 66s when she called my all-in, priceless.


On Saturday I played in a SNG where I bubbled when I had AQ with pretty decent chip stack, 2nd at the time and I pushed against the UTG raiser, big stack had about 600 more than me, he called with a 99 and it held up. I don't think it was a great call, but maybe it was. I was happy to see the lower cards, but I was disappointed not to catch and cripple him. He commented after I was gone, "that guy went all-in way too much" this is when the blinds where good sized. I went from short stack to second and what was funny was I had hands like KK, AK, AQ, AJ and yes probably some less than good hands, but it is funny how many people do not understand SNG play at the bubble and the blinds rising.
