----------------------
[8:50] A bit late and I just got here, but even after being blinded out I probably have more chips than I normally do at this point in the game. As I sit, people catch me up on a hand that happened just a few minutes earlier...
Blinds are 50-100, Chess makes it a 600 preflop bet, and folds all around to Bagu in the big blind. Bagu raises it 1700 more, and Chess raises 4000 on top. Bagu shoves all in and Chess snap calls, getting his chips in faster than Bagu can even reach for his. Bagu shows A-10 clubs, and Chess shows pkt Aces, which hold up and Bagu is severely crippled early in the game.
[9:06] "Two all-in's" called from Table 3. As some of us head over to check out the action, we hear "make that 3 all-in's." The board is 3 hearts, Jack high. The Cup has pkt 6's, Omar has pkt K's, and Mike has A-K, with the A of hearts for the nut flush draw and the Ace out. Turn comes 6, good for The Cup, but its not over yet, both Mike and O have their outs. River comes... the case 6, for runner-runner quads. Cupcake wins the main pot, a whopping 2000 chips, Omar gets 15,000 for the side pot, and Mike gets first seat at the cash game.
[10:05] Kurt raises to 1200 from late position and a bunch of limpers before him. Jeremiah calls, and I really feel like Kurt is just making a move to pick up all those blinds, and I nearly shove with my rags just to find out, but end up just calling. Sapna on the other hand shoves for 6000 more. Whew, glad I didn't shove. Kurt calls. Double whew, would have gotten 2 callers. Jeremiah folds and I fold, and Sapna shows pkt Jacks, while Kurt is rolling with pkt Aces, showing just how bad my read was. The bullets hold up, and team SoupOrSalad is out.
[10:15] Down to two tables, and the blue table calls 3 all-in's again. I think the chips were all in preflop, but when we get over there to check it out, there a Jack high board with 2 spades. Nisha has J-10 spades for top pair with the flush draw. Nicole has pkt 10's for the under pair, and Omar is ahead with pkt Q's. The Q's hold up, Nisha and Nicole are sent to the rail, and Omar is the chip leader at over 40,000.
[11:15] Down to the final table, in order Ruby, Jagu, Sungina, Chess, Kumo, Jeremiah, Omar, Jeena, and Kurt on the button. Omar continues to be on da roll, taking down the first hand with pkt Aces.
[11:22] Blinds are 400-800, 100 ante and Jeena shoves preflop for 8000 (on my big blind, damnit.) Everyone folds to Jeremiah under the gun, and he calls with pkt Q's. "Damnit" from Jeena, showing pkt J's. No help and Jeena is out in 9th.
[11:33] Jagu makes it 2400 preflop. Chess thinks a bit, then folds. Omar thinks a bit, then folds as well. Ruby, with a ton of chips, calls. Flop comes A-rag-rag and Ruby checks. Jagu goes all in and Ruby insta-calls with A-J against Jagu's A-6. No help and Jagu is out in 8th.
Not long after, I bet about 4000 (half my stack) with suited A-Q, making Jeremiah think for a bit before he puts me all in with his A-K. I call, and despite both of our past experiences, the A-Q does not crack the A-K this time and I'm out in 7th, lasting a few hours longer than last week, despite another night of flowing 40's.
Sungina ends up the Bubble Girl for the week, and Jeremiah slips into the 5th spot for the 3 points. Ruby had a pretty massive chip stack when I left, but only hangs on to the 4th spot and 6 pts. There's probably a story in there somewhere. Omar, also with a huge stack for most of the night, ends up in 3rd, while Chester, who like me was down to about 12,000 late in the game, is able to parlay them to a 2nd place finish and 12 pts. And the winner for the week is Kurt, whose 15 pts is enough to push him into the overall lead for the season, and of course gives him a great start to the 2nd mini-season.
