Final Table Blinds smoked me
08-03-2008 07:49:35 PM
I made the final table in East Providence at Spiritos. I haven't done well in a live tournament in a while. I was floating around 30,000 when i made the final table. The blinds were 5,000-10,000 and going up soon. I was dealt A of clubs, J of clubs about two or three hands into the final table. I shoved my 30,000 into the middle. I was called outta the big blind by A of diamonds 5 of Diamonds, and after we both made two pair, i had doubled up. I managed to survive down to three people by stealing a couple blinds here and there with decent hands. I wasn't in the mood to push with anything but decent cards, i played too hard to just throw it away. And trust me I have donked plenty. I was chipped down to about 45,000 and decided on the button three handed to push when i looked down at the K of spades only, I was called behind by a pair of 6's. No king came and I was on my way to the rail. Not a bad showing.
*I came back fromt he break with 3,000 in chips, doubled up with 77, and tripled of with a set of 6's, and hit a miracle jack when i was all'in from the small blind with j-5 of hearts with 2 tables left.
*My hand at home games is 10-8, i have hit a lot of flops with that hand. I raised the blinds of 400-800 to 1800, when i flopped two pair i managed to get my opponet all in which allowed me to get ahead of the rapid blinds.
