A sad story this time. About my beloved memory stick that I got for christmas ... I got a little too drunk at xmas and decided it was cool or funny or something in that sense to give the memory stick a really good test. With a hammer. On the pavement. Well ... obviously, it didn't survive this crazy test.
Better luck next year ... (I felt really stupid the next day .. and still do !)
At new years night itself, I was actually playing poker once again. My wife and I were feeling a bit sick so we stayed home and watched a movie. After the movie and a bottle of wine, we decided to play some online poker. I started a $5, SNG on Full Tilt Poker with 45man. I proceeded to play like god, run like god and took the whole thing down for $85 ! I knew I was at the top of my game when I folded QQ pre flop and my opponent showed KK. I don't think I have ever folded QQ pre flop before and think this is a huge jump in my game.
I went to bed and the next day I tried my luck at the tables again ... I was actually waiting for my wife to finish something so I started what I thought was a quick game, a $2 SNG with 27 people. I played very aggressively in the beginning, pushing when I had a decent draw and getting lucky. But the real play came at the final table where I actually entered as one of the short stacks. I nursed my short stack like it was my little baby. I won a race with AQ against JJ which got me back into the game. After this, the biggest hands I won were when I managed to trap someone.
With only 4 players left, I thought there was not much danger in slow playing my big hands. Especially since the other stacks seemed to be playing a little over aggressively. I guess most $2 players don't have much experience in the final table / end game. And so I took this one down as well.
