So I managed to make it to the Deep stack tourney at the elks on Sat. which we started with 20K in chips. I was managing to hover within a 1,000 or so of the starting stack for some time then got on a bit of a roll and had my stack built up to just short of 30K. I was in the small blind, there were a few limpers and no raises so I called the extra 100 with my K8 suited hoping the BB didn't raise, and he didn't. So there were about 5 of us to the Flop which came K98 rainbow. WOO-HOO! I was sure I had the best hand cause if some had pocket 8's 9's or K's they almost certainly would have raised. I decided to check hoping someone with something Like a KQ or KJ limped in. BB checked, then finally a raise to 400, one caller and I popped it to 1,200 it folded around to the original raiser and after a minute he called the other guy who called the first raise, folded to my re-raise so I was heads up. The turn was a nothing 3 and I lead out for 2,800 and after a long pause was called. The river put a damn Ace out there so now I was thinking, did this guy limp in with AK, or even pocket AA's or did he have KJ and was worried about his kicker. I decided to push hard and bet 7,600 which was enough to put him all in. He went into the tank for a long time, so I felt certain my two pair was good, he finally called and he flipped over K9. OUCH! so I was back down to about
18,000 which wasn't short stacked but it still hurt. I then fluctuated up and down in a range between 8,000 - 24,000 for a few levels was moved several times to different tables which always sucks getting moved everytime you just start feeling comfortable at a table. Finally I had my stack up to around 27 or 28K again and I got into a hand where I had an 8 9 of spades and flopped a straight flush draw, with a board of 5s, 7s, Jd. The pot was so built up and there were two all ins that I had covered and I knew obviously that my Straight flush draw was good, the straight draw itself might be good, and who knows maybe just a plain old flush will be good, but I figured one of these guys probably had big spades but I was hoping it would be set against set or two pair so the flush would be good. One player flipped over a set of 5's and the other guy had K2 spades. So my flush draw would be no good but if I made a straight or made my straight flush I would be good. the turn was another 5 giving the one guy quad 5's so now only the 6 of spades could save me, but no such luck. I was now down to around 9K and the ante's were added on and it was only a matter of time, I got ground down till I had exactly 10x the BB and saw an ace an pushed all in. I got called by an AJ and my other card ended up being a deuce and I didn't catch any deuces when I really needed them. Good bye deepstack tourney!
