Hustler Casino Super Satellite

[Wise Hand Poker]

The Hustler Casino is Having a weeks worth of Tournaments ending with a $1000.00 buy in Championship tomorrow, Sunday the 11th at Noon.

At 3pm today they had a Super Satellite with a buy in of 130.00. Dying to play some live Poker I went down there after work and Joined the other 45 players who registered.

The top 5 players would make it to tomorrow and 6th place would get $650.00.With 17 to go I had 17,000 in chips after my AQ beat AK when I flopped a Q.The gentleman I beat pushed his last 4,000 in when the blinds were 400-800 and a very good player next to me went all in for 6800 chips.

I looked down at AK and thought for a bit and did not want to risk a third of my stack at this point.Player one had A9 and the player to my left had AQ and the flop was KK4.I played to careful and if I would of called I would be sitting with around 30k in chips.

I had been playing really good and at this point every hand I raised with i won so I thought I would wait for a better spot.

As the blinds reached 600-1200 I had 14,900 chips when a very aggressive cash player who had gone in three times in a row pushed his 9200 chips all in again. I was on the button and had KdKs and I called his all in. He turned up AJ and the flop was As-2s-3s, turn Ad and river was 9h and I was crippled and lost my BB when the button went all in and I had A5c.

He turned up 99 and I only had 3600 chips left and I busted 11th.

I was really happy with my game, the 45 person sng's I have been playing kept me fresh and after being away from live tournaments awhile I was very happy with my reads and style of play.

I may play the 345.00 event on Tuesday at the Hustlers finale or just wait until next week to play some satellites, that start at Commerce on Friday for the LAPC.

Very nice start to 2009 and I actually had a few big hands at good times and I only had one all in caller when I had AA in BB, by a young lady with 66.

Take Care....Be Safe.....
