LOL I spent close to $400.oo in satellites trying win a seat in $1,000.00 touney, hell would have been better of just buying directly. Last night I took a heavy hit to my account in the cash game Quad K's vs st8 flush $3600.00 pot. Heres the funny part you can only transfer $600.00 per day from Netteller to Pokerstars. So I guess I have to wait til next Sunday $2500

Today, we're in a $1000 No Limit Hold'Em contest. Currently, over 1550 players are preparing to duke it out for a prize pool of over 1.5 million dollars.As I've done for each event so far, I will do my best Dr. Pauly impression, and live blog the action right here at CardSquad.As always, if you'd like to sweat me, or any of your favorite players, grab the PokerStars Client, and head to tournament 10017954.1:28 PM (all times are PDT) - I'm in seat 5 at table 161. There are two empty seats behind me. In the last few minutes, the field has grown to 1780 players.1:30 PM - Cards are in the air. I'm the BB. It's a family pot, but no BB special for me. I fold. Seat 8 gets it all in against seat 2 with the board Jh-Th-Tc-3d-Qd. Seat two goes into the tank. The pot is 3880 while he thinks . . . he calls and they've both got 9-10o! They chop it. That was funny.1:38 PM - Wow, there are a lot of chasers at this table. Twice now I've seen players stay all the way to fifth street on longshot draws with the wrong odds, only to get there at the end.1:48 PM - I haven't opened a hand, yet. I thought about playing a suited ace-little in the cutoff with three limpers ahead of me, but when a huge raise came just before me, I decided to wait for a different spot. It was a good fold - the flop would have missed me completely. The field ended up being 1790 players. First place will win $393,800. Today, I'm listening to Coldplay, Wilco, The Cure, Oingo Boingo, and Radiohead while I play. It's a little eclectic, but I'm letting iTunes play DJ. All further updates will be in extended. 1:52 PM - I finally opened a pot, and got no action. I guess I've got a little fold equity.

Before I jumped the gun and assume he has a flush I wanted to think it through. I went through the possible hands he might be holding. Trips were no problem since I had a straight, but would he have made the move with all the possible straights and flushes out there? probably not. What about Ax? I thought it very unlikely that he would have called the pre flop raise with anything lower than AT (in an expensive tourney such as this) which would imply that the most likely hand he had would have been AQ with the ace of clubs (since the K, Q, J , T were all accounted for). I did not know anything about him, he had just moved to the table. There was also a third possibility: My last bet was very small, much smaller than the previous. The idea was to seem like I wanted a call badly, but may easily have been misinterpreted as weekness and as a result the all in move could have been a semi bluff? Anyways your thoughts...ps. I am still in and doubled up immediately after but still very short
