Hi all, trying to push with the hands I got I picked up JJ on the button in the end of the first period. Blinds 500-250 with a 15K stack. Everybody checked to me and I raised. Small blind with about 30K reraised to 5K. I got all in and he calls with A 10 off. An ace hit on the flop and it holds up and it is all over. Thanks for all support and Good luck next year

Day 2
Day 2 starts in about 90 minutes. The field is confirmed to 6.844 players and a little more than 3.000 are still in. The average stack is a little more than 40.000 (compared with my 17.800) and blinds 500-250 with 50 in ante. Will come back with updates asap. Hopefully my card average will change to the better…
First day done
I have had an extreeeeeeemely cold day. Actually quite pathetic. Its so sad I get depressed writing about it so lets just say that I am om 17.500 in chips with 250-500 in blinds coming up on Wednesday which is the start for Day 2b. It doesnt get better after my table neighbout within 10 hours get 5 AA 6 trips 4 full houses (etc etc) and the best hand I get is JJ and 2 AK. Tilt. I guess this is not my tournament so far but I am more than happy to change table before Wednesday. Ill be back!!
Game day?
Sorry for the lousy updates the last couple of days. Bizzy times
I finally got the confirmation for my starting day which was the 6th. The funny(?) thing is that when I showed up the the registration with my confirmation number they tell me that I have been moved to the 5th which is tomorrow. TILT! How badly organized can they possibly be?!?! Luckily i DID go there yesterday and I can just imagine the poor people they might have moved without telling also coming in just to be told they have been blinded off in 5 hours… So, tomorrow it is. Chip counts here. The simple strategy will be to have a good juicystack after day one or none at all. Laters…;)
