Finally!

26 February 2009
I finally final tabled another 180 player $38 dollar SNG. The feeling was great and for the first time in a very long time I actually felt something while playing for money and the top 1-3 place was really tempting. Everything went very smooth untill I ran my KK into AQ and he obviously had to hit the A on the turn which crippled me badly but I managed to come back and I got all the way to heads up.
I think I played better than the guy I was facing heads up but he still managed to win when my ThJd didn't hold up against his Ks2s when the turn gave me the straight and he caught a flushdraw which lead to the obvious spade on the river. I don't think I could ever fold that river though when we had so much invested in the pot and the blinds were so high, oh well, I'm quite happy with the overall result and I guess that's just poker!

By the way, the payout structure in these are kind of wicked, basically, you have to end up 1st to 3rd most of the time if you are going to play these tourneys profitably since;

1st pays $1,782.00
2nd pays $1,188.00
3rd pays $706.86

and after that every payout is under $475.20 bucks and with the swings in the 180 turbo SNGs you've got to have atleast 200 buyins which won't allow you to ever go for anything except top 3. I mean, if you end up at 4th place you'll only get $475.20 which only translates into 13 buyins.

Enough with the boring stuff, the whole post is more or less pretty dull but I'm very tired and I really need to go to bed now! I might post something "interesting" tomorrow!

Good night all!

PS.
Sorry for any inconvenience / headache while reading this text, once again I'm very tired and to be honest my english ain't all that good from the start
