First attempt at riverchasers tourny

Did not go so well. Was fun though while it lasted (which wasn't too long LOL). Sometimes when I miss a big hand early it setes the tone for my game. This happened 1st or 2nd level, I raised 3x from EP with 6/6, guy next to me called, then a fold and a huge RR frome Loretta to like 400.

It folds back to me and I folded. ( which I think was the right play, I know Loretta and was putting him on a big PP). The guy next to me calls. He has 8/8 (I think) and Loretta has Q/Q(knew it).

Flop comes X/X/6, theres my set turn X, then get it all in river you guessed it 6. So Iwould have tripled up. Oh well I still think my fold was correct but will post in the forums for some more feedback.

I'm prett much card dead to 50/100 and down to 2400+ in chips. EP raises to 350 and I have A/Ks. I think I should have just called but I shoved and lost to his Q/Q. I think I over played my hand here. Definitly shoving had to be wrong.

So went and played acouple more $11 turbo sng's and casheed 2 at of 3 (a 1st and a 3rd) so that made me feel better.

Thanks for readingguys and GL at the tables.

Yeah that's an easy fold preflop. Esp to Loretta. He plays pretty ~tight early.

And you did see the post that FullTilt uses continuous shuffling of the remaining cards right? So if you'd called, it's completely possible the board would have been totally different. Weird, I know.

GL next time!

And to respond to ur comment, I'm not totally done with MTTs. I'll probably still play a lot of the weekly blogger tournies and the ocassional midnight madness / 10$ KO. But for the most part, my focus will be cash.
