Bad Beats and Tilt 4 is off and running...

I got relatively deep in the Brit Bloggament finishing 14th when my 88 did not hold against 6-7o. Sitting on 5,240 in chips with the blinds at 120/240, action folded around to a player in LP and he raises to 720 with the mightee 6-7o. I reraise it up to 2,640 and he flat calls over half his stack (LOL). He started the hand with 4,175. Anyway, the flop comes 6 high with 2 clubs. I shove, he snap calls and binks a 7 on the turn for 2p. i shove my remaining chips in with A-rag the very next hand and run into KK. gg

The funny part is after my 88 gets outrun by the guy's 6-7o he pops off with "don't play junk !!" in the chat box. good times.

I will mention i did get lucky in a hand earlier when I reraise/shoved all-in from EP with AQs and ran into the Button's QQ. I spiked an Ace on the river for a much needed double up. Otherwise, i would've gone out earlier.

I went out very early in the Big Game in a blind vs blind battle. This hand is almost as redic as the 88 vs 67o hand. Sitting on 5000 chips and the blinds at 25/50, action folds around to the SB who makes it 175 to go, I wake up with Q-Q and repop to 575, he insta-ships. I mean he couldn't get all his chips in quick enough. I think for a few seconds but who am I kidding. Even though it's a deep stack tournament, i'm just not good enough to fold Q-Q heads up in a blind vs blind confrontation so i call and he flips A-Ko. A King hits the flop and I am done. I'm not sure why someone would ship 100 bb's in pf with AKo that early in a deepstack tourney but whatever. Later I saw this same player donk shove K-5s from the button into the BB's A-A after a raise/reraise and hit the rail.

Blogger tourneys are just plain comical.

Congrats to Shabazz Jenkins for taking down the Brit Bloggament and RakeFeeder for piling up all the chips in the Big Game. Honorable mention goes to Lightning36 for final tabling both tournaments.
