Lodge Results for Sunday 04/09/06 - Week 22

A good tournament yesterday, about 60 people showed up. Started off folding most of my hands. The table was pretty tight until we were down to the final 3 tables. Before the first break, the pot was raised only twice pre flop and we only lost 1 player. On the hand before the break I was down to about 130 chips and have A8o. Flop comes AQQ and I check, player goes allin for a little less than I have. This was the last hand before no more rebuys could be use so I decide to call. He has 66 and doesn't get any help so I double up. After getting rivered a few hands after the break, I am pretty much short stack until I get K7. Flop comes K26 and the player to my right goes all in and I call. Get one more caller and the original all in turns over K2 so I need a 7 to stay alive. I river the 7 and triple up. Finally we move to the final table and I am 2nd to shortest stack out there. I look at QQ and the player to my right goes all in and I call. He turns over QJ and doesn't get any help so I double up again. After a couple rounds of blinds I am down to 2000 with the blinds at 500-1000. I am in the big blind with Q4 and the flop comes K74 and my opponent bets 1000 and I decide to call. He turns over A4 and I don't get any help and I am out in 5th place. Not a bad showing considering at one point when the blinds were 20-40 I was down to 125 in chips. Next week is going to be either Omaha or Omaha hi-lo which I have never played before.
