The tourney is still going on, but not for me. I was treading water most of the tournament and ended up out in 45th. Signor Ferrari did an Icarus thing. Flew too close to the sun (playing very solid poker) and crashed down to Earth, finishing in 38th.
As I write I am rooting for Toby, but she is on the shortstack so I may need someone else to root for soon.
UPDATE: The tourney write up will have its own post.
A few thoughts while I analyze my hand history and think about what I want to write.
Al Can’t Hang auctioned off pieces of himself. Then he busted out in second-to-last place. Is anyone else thinking of The Producers? (This wasn’t the tournament he was selling himself for. -ed. Still, it is a sign of what is to come, is it not?)
asphnxma busted out early and made it to A.M. I hope he had better luck there.
I saw so many reversals of fortune where a player was behind preflop, caught a piece of the flop/turn and got slapped back on the river. So painful to watch. Except the time it helped me out. More tomorrow.
