Bodogery

I did come off hiatus last night to play in the Bodog blogger tournament. Not that it mattered. The cards were not kind.

I got pocket kings once, only to watch as an ace fell on the flop. Then there was the hand where I turned the nut straight against a flopped two pair and watched in horror as the large pot went for naught when the river put my nut hand on the board for all to share.

I tried to bide my time, waiting for the right hand to make a move, but even with the super-sized starting stacks the blinds caught up. That hand where my straight got rivered for a chop really hurt. That was my big hand. Perfect set up. Very dood odds of taking most of the other guy's chips. 86% to win. Sometimes it's just not your night.

I finished toward the middle of the pack, 28th of 52 or so.

It's nice to see the turnout at these events picking up like this. Thanks to Bodog for hosting and sweetening the pot like they did.
