Final Table Report - 1/25/20
A silver medal showing and a $12 entry into a tournament. It would be nice to turn that into some cash. (But I didn't... 😒)

Final Table Report - 1/22/20
Made it to a final table in an Omaha tournament. Probably could've done a little better (rankwise), but still happy with this result.

Bubble Boy (x2)
A couple of deep runs today, but ended up just outside of the money.
1. In the $20 freebies freeroll, my AQs was defeated by AKo (all-in preflop). I think it was the right call as I was blinding out. I just missed ITM because the person with AKo had, a few hands below, hit a flush on the river with JQs. The other player had a pair of aces (one in the hole; the other on the board).
2. In the $200 deepstack freeroll, I was all-in with KK versus TT. Villain hit a T. I was reduced to about a big blind, and eventually was taken down.
In all, feel good about my plays; too bad about the results. That's poker!
Update: Played a third tourney of the day, and was able to place second. This tourney was a satellite. Unfortunately I couldn't play in the target tourney -- but it was nice to cash.
Three tourneys; three final tables; one ITM.

Final Table Report - 1/11/20
A hard-fought victory (with some lucky cards landing early on) in the $20 freebies freeroll (and a 1st place finish). I made it to the final table at about 4th or 5th place and was slowly blinded out. I was almost on my way out -- after a missed all-in encounter -- when I hit trips (5s) to double up. A few plays later I hit a pair of As (one in my hand and one on the board) and got chips against someone betting a pair of Qs. A sitting out player finally blinded out, and that was it.
In 2020, my ITM % is an exceptional 26.67% (4 cashes out of 15 games). Let's hope it continues. Fun!

Final Table Report - 1/9/20
Another tourney ticket won at the $20 freebies freeroll. Some tight spots on final table. Including a bet that I should've made, but I collected the pot with a raise. Phew!

Final Table Report - 1/8/20
Another $5 tourney ticket collected on the $20 freebies freeroll. My ITM percentage for this event is about 18% so far in 2020 (2 wins / 11 games). Hopefully I can keep that up!
(I did have a lucky flip in the middle of the tournament, so more luck is always appreciated.)
Final table featured one player chip dumping to another. Yuck. Fortunately, it didn't work and the recipient of the dumped chips was the bubble player.

Final Table Report - 1/7/20
A deep run on the $100 freeroll ending in a 6th place finish. Blinds got so high that maneuverability was very difficult. Not too shabby.

Squeezed onto a final table in an Omaha tournament. Could've gotten fourth if I hadn't had been weakened by hitting a straight that was beaten by a better straight. Oops.

First ITM of the year and a silver medal. Second ITM was a harder battle but much smaller reward.
