Day # 13

Today i had a lot of running around to do but was able to play for about 3 hours. I played 1 table of 10/20, 1 table of 5/10, and played in the 150 buy in tournament again. Had some ok results at the cash games but wasn't able to cash in the tournament. I was really card dead in the tournament and just kind of hung around until i picked up aces and obviously they didn't hold up. When this happened it definitely reminded me why i hate to play tournaments. I'm not saying that tournament hands are rigged but the beats you take playing those are just insane compared to cash games. Lets just say when i got my AA all in preflop against 2 other players (kk and aq) i knew they would lose and they did. The even funnier part is that they lost to both of the other hands haha. This always seems to happen to me late in tourneys and it just makes me not want to play tourneys it pisses me off so much. I wouldn't really have cared if this happened in the first 5 minutes but i had played for a few hours and if my aces would've held up i would've cashed for sure and went deep into the tourney. Tomorrow i plan on putting together one last good session before i leave for vegas so check back tomorrow night for results. Alright that's enough venting over my tourney disappointment here are some hands from today and I'm out.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?742978 - gotta love players like this.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?742982 - a lot of times i would re raise here on the flop but his bet just smelled funny. Figured he probably has a 9 here so i just call the 100 in hopes of hitting the turn and i do.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?742986 this was a very weird hand. He limps in late position then facing a raise and re raise he shoves all in. I honestly thought about folding this hand for almost my full minute but ended up calling. Only reason i did call was the fact that this guy had been playing a lot of hands and overplaying a lot of weak hands. I'm thinking he has aa/ak in this spot and just ended up getting really lucky.
http://www.pokerhand.org/?742997 - this hand is from heads up play and was one of the first few hands so i wasnt sure of how this guy played. I picked up a big hand heads up and really couldve lost more here but the river q slowed things down.

and finally here is my hand from the tourney- http://www.pokerhand.org/?743006 I think i busted out in like 320th place and the top 180 got paid. Definitely would've been sitting in good chip position after this hand and it sucks it didnt hold up.

Daily total- 710.88

Total needed- 31,383.97 (would like to have this under/at 30 by the time I fly out.)
