Monday

Played a couple hours of 15/30 last night...booked a small profit after being stuck $1,000 early on. Then I entered the big Monday tournaments... $150+12 on Stars, Party and Pacific. 0 for 3 again...

Stars - Treaded water and then got down to about 1100... blinds 25/50 and the player to my right makes it 100 in LP. I make it 300 with AK and he makes it 500. I love losing to the min raisers... AK is too big to fold here so I obviously jam and the guy has QQ. I lose the flip.

Party - Did nothing for the first hour and then doubled with AK vs AQ. Guy opens for 150 (25/50) and I jam for 935 and he calls with AQ... not a very good call by him but I'll take it. About five hands later I run top pair into a set and bust the next hand when I move in for 5 BB's.

Pacific - This actually went well... of course, the structure is terrible. I had 5500 when I opened for 1100 on the button with Ac7c (blinds 200/400). I already suspected that the aggressive SB would re-steal... and I was in the mood to take a stand. I called his push and was a huge favorite against 5c6c but he flopped three 6's. I had 450 left and open pushed with 33 and ran into K6 which flopped a flush.

Here is the 15/30 hand of the day. I wish I had 3 bet the turn, but both players in the hand were just so hard to figure out and I could not make out what the turn raise from arturo meant... I always love losing to perfect/perfect.
