after you cleep up a cash game you cleen up a tourny

[esmordan]

so after tuesdays live experiance i was still running and playing really good....we went to a tourny about 40mins-1hour away and played.....it was a $25 buy in and 28 ppl showed up...not bad for a home tourny held weekly....anyways me thenutz and anoither freind of mine came

to i started playing and within the 1st time around the table i got 77 limped and there was no raise.....so the flop falls k73 rainbow and a kid leads out for 125i reraise to 350(starting stacks1000 blinds 10-20, and i had a lil over the starting stack at the time and he had me covered by 40)....he smooth calls and the turn falls the 4th 7...instead of slowplaying i decide to be trickiy and fired with my quads it worked he snapcalls my all in and i double up ( said he had AK)

so no really really big plays i knock a few ppl out by reading well and playing very TAG (tight but aggressive) so i mike the final table and so does my buddy alex who came with us...thnutz had a tought beat were his aces were called by a straight draw and he was KOed....again at the final table i play my game very TAG and don't really get anyhing going untill we make the money (5 players)....my buddy alex bubbled...so 5th place was short stacked and shoves from the BB 1st hand with 8s0...most of his chips were in with the BB...and the oter guys Aj holds up.....then i get 33 on the button i shove and the shortest stack calls with KJo...and my 3'ss hold up.....then 3 way action happens for awhile and during this time i crack AA i have 67 suited in the BB and the sb min raises me so i call and the flop falls 8 10 3 all clubs not my suit...he min bets and i smooth call with a gutshot...i turn the 9 and he bets 5000(5x the bb now and most of my stack) i move in for 1100 more and he calls and had the A of clubs and i dodged it then finally this girl is pretty short stacked and moves in with 22 i have A4 suited think about it and finally descide i am getting the right odds to call i was already in the BB and it was 2400 more of my 15000 stack...so i call flop falls qq3 turn 8 river 8 so i counterfit her and KO her and go to heads up play we play pretty even play and finally he started getting agressive....i pick up A 7 and he raises like 3/4 of his stack i move in and he calls with k 9o the A 7 holds and i won the tourny.....$250 for 1st...2 times this week i play live and both times a 200 profit
