And there’s proof. That’s right, last place of the winners is me (avoque). Overall I think I played pretty well. I only made a bad play once when I raised pre-flop with QJs and had someone push all-in behind me. It was probably too many chips to be calling and I was dominated by pocket kings so there was little hope for me.

For my bustout hand I pushed with a little more than 5 BBs with AKo in the big blind. Someone had pushed in front of me with K9s. Of course the 9 hits on the flop. I was sure I was going to get bubble boy honors, but slipped into the money.

AC for the pre-birthday weekend. There’s actually a chance I’ll play some poker while I’m there (if I can get away from the craps tables, that is.). Who hops the fives?? THIS GUY, that’s who.
