one tournament. two hands.

hardly played any poker over the weekend. ran bad towards the end of last week and was really busy so the break was good.

entered a tourney at the fortune rooms on friday night. after about 5 minutes got dealt pocket kings and pushed on a low flop and got called by a set. 5 minutes after that got dealt pocket queens and pushed on a low flop again and got called by a flush draw. i've come to realise though that tourneys are not about surviving - they're about winning, and if you can build a big stack at the beginning then you have a massive advantage in the later stages.

anyhow, that was the end of my night - apart from a couple of fun sitngos a few of us played afterwards. no luck there either!

on the plus side i heard of a wee private 6 max tourney that a guy is organising in the university area of belfast on monday nights. seemed like a good lad. might check that out tonight.
