Third Game, Third Place :-)

Game 3: $6 entrance fee, 10 player sit and go, Speed.

Early Game
The first player is out in the second hand. The cards on the table fall one off a run. Ace, King, Queen and Ten. One player goes all in with Ace, King and another calls with Jack, Rag.

This game is lot less aggressive, players are having some good starting cards and not even betting!

A second player is knocked out by a pair of aces, he had a pair of twos. No contest really!

Three players have been knocked out and I haven’t even played a hand yet! Still I have most of my starting chips which puts me in a reasonable position and at this stage survival is most important.

My first hand played and its an all in hand. I limp in with an Queen, Jack. The flop shows a queen and my opponent bets. I raise and we are all in. He shows a Queen, Eight and the pot is shortly mine.

Mid Game:
Still folding lots of hands. Its hard to beleive I have only had one hand by this stage. Still I am in third place because of how I have played and the advice offered so its looking reasonably good.

Finally get another hand of two jacks, I raise and the sixth place player calls and is all in. He has an Ace, Five and doesn’t hit. Unfortunately the pot is not very big :-(

My pair of Queens eliminate the forth placed player who had ace, five and we are down to the last three.

Later Game:
I’am able to steal the pot a few times with some great advice and I am in second place with about a third of the chips.

Knocked out in third, I have an Ace, King. My opponent raises and I go all in. He calls and has Ace, Ten. His ten comes up on the river :-(

Still another $10.
