So i was playing some Online Poker the other night as i often do on Pokerstars when i decided to register for a $11 NL Hold'em tournament consisting of 180 players. Now this tournament has a prize pool of $1800 and pays the top 18 places with $540 going to first!! With such large amounts of money up for grabs with such a small investment i was readdy to play some texas hold'em and win! But if only it was that easy... The Poker stars tournament started off fairly slow with me picking up a few small pots here and there. It wasnt until their was about 55 players left that it started to rain on my poker winning parade. I had bet 15000 preflop with Ah Kh and and 2 people had called. The flop Comes Ac Kd 10c. My frst thought to myself was alright! 2 pairs i cant lose! so i check letting them think i didnt hit what i was looking for and sure enough the next guy bets another 15000 which gets called by the 3rd guy in the hand and myself. The River comes Qc. The action was on me so i knew sure enough that even if one of them did have A Q it would lose to my 2 pairs of A K and moved all in... The other 2 players were soon to call, forcing us to turn over are cards and wait for the river. As i saw what i was up against i was in good position with One guy holding Kc and 10h and the other sporting Ad and Ks. now this wasnt to bad seeing how the i would at least have a split pot with the other A K. All it really depended on was the river.... And just as my luck has it the River came.. 2c. leaving me and the other A K high and dry and out of the tournament because the K10 hit his flush... Dont you just Love Poker!? ha well it will be awhile before you see me on Pokerstars again. ive had my fill with texas hold'em for awhile!
