$5+$0.50 NL Hold'em Tournament

1634 people started, current position is 20... 43 left in the game.

Wow, that last hand was Goldlike. Big stack making an isolation move with A4 and hiting trips on the flop.

[Slagar]

Ouch, what a hand for the BB to have. At least you got over 7 times your buy-in. Placing 23rd out of 1634 is very nice.

Sigh... and so the run ends in 23rd with K9s vs AQo.

$36.77 to the bank account...

Final stats:
During current Hold'em session you were dealt 93 hands and saw flop:
- 1 out of 9 times while in big blind (11%)
- 1 out of 10 times while in small blind (10%)
- 10 out of 74 times in other positions (13%)
- a total of 12 out of 93 (12%)
Pots won at showdown - 5 of 7 (71%)
Pots won without showdown - 8

I can't play much better (or tighter) than that...

Thanks -- I figured K9s was worth a shot, especially since I didn't think I'd make the next pay level without hitting one more hand. Those are the breaks, I guess...

Wow, you only saw 12 flops.
71% of pots won at showdown, that is a huge percentage. Well, to me it is, I'm lucky if mine is 50%.

Remember, going into that last hand, I was 5 for 6 (83%) of pots won at showdown...

I wonder if I'm playing too tight... I mean, I only saw the flop 12% of hands dealt, and my win % came out to 14% of all hands dealt, but I don't know what the "target" number should be.

(You know the saying "If you're winning every hand, you're not bluffing enough"? I get the feeling that's describing my style of play...)

[Slagar]

Better than losing most of the hands you showdown.
