500 Nightly II 10 July

Wow...I managed to make it into my 2nd final table, someone got knocked out in 9th just as I got moved. I was 6th in chips and floated between 4th and last the whole time. The blinds were up to 50/100K and well, that's when you have to take chances.

I went all in with A-J, and got 2 callers, had I tripled up I would have been 2nd in chips. One had A-K, the other had K-10, and when the flop game 5-J-5 it looked good. A blank 6 on the turn and then the dagger K on the river to send me out in 5th place.

Still...it's my 2nd nightly FT in 2 weeks and I'm learning to pick my spots a lot better. At one table I played 9 out of 92 hands. That never would have happened 2 weeks ago.

Best of luck to all of you out on the tables...the $40 I earned was a nice consolation prize. :)

Why would this happen to a guy like you?
