It has been a little bit since I was winning at poker. The last couple cash games I was at, I have lost. But today would be different. After getting permission to leave early tomorrow so I could make it back for softball, I got some work done on our product. <\/p>\n
Then it was off to Eric’s condo in Bellevue for a tournament. Eight people played in it. It was a twenty dollar buy-in with rebuys for the first three rounds. I did one rebuy, but no add-on. I was in fourty bucks. <\/p>\n
I wasn’t catching hands, and I was the short stack all night long. Even as people were going out before me, I was short stacked and the guy who would go out would bet all-in, only to lose to someone with more money so the bet could be coverd. <\/p>\n
Over time people were starting to go out, but it took a while to see people starting to drop out. Once that happened however, it started to go pretty quick. <\/p>\n
I was short stack, as I was all night, and I only had about three times the big blind. I was nearing my exit when the number two chip leader went all-in. I could not believe my eyes. I was hoping the chip leader would call and win allowing me to get second place. But the chip leader did not call.<\/p>\n
I ended up going out shortly thereafter winning third place and taking home an extra twenty-two bucks on the night.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
