Friday night $20+2
1310 Entrants, $26,200 prize pool. Sixth is over $1k, first is $5500. Top 140 pay.
6:50pm - my first pot. K4c one off the button. Folded to me, I double the blinds. BB raises to 70 and I call. Flop comes K22, the blind raises 250. I think a long time and fold. Probably a weak laydown, on further reflection, as i'd imagine he was representing a medium pocket pair, but I didn't want to push and bust out on my first hand. However the nightly $15+1 starts in about an hour, so I guess I can play a little looser with a second tournament to run shortly.
7:15pm - not catching any cards, I play my second pot. K9c catches a flop of K73 one club. I raise and am called. Turn comes another king. I raise, someone re-raises, I push, he calls - he turns pocket sevens for the slowplayed boat. I have only seven outs on the river and can't catch the miracle. I've got 120 chips left, I push next hand with J9s, am called by ATo, neither of us improve and i'm out in 994th.
Oh well. 24 minutes before the 15+1 starts...
