WSOP Quest Part 4 (2nd part)

However after a few more rounds that guys right back in it and its all every so tense again.  I can’t cope.  Chris is in need to drugs by this point and worse than me.

 

I can’t remember how it happened but eventually we get an all n called and one guy goes out 4th.  I don’t care now – I have 3k guaranteed – I wanted it over.  Whew as they say.  We must have played 4 handed for about 2 hours.

 

So we play 3 handed for a bit,  the guy who knocked out the guy in 4th has a huge chip lead so he makes it pretty obvious he’s not going play so its between me and the other shorty.  He’s betting into me which is the problem and I’m betting into the big stack.  He steals my blinds by going all in a lot; I have to steal when I have a bit of something from the big stack, hoping that he won’t call me. 

 

I feel sick and want it over.

 

I get A10 on my bb.  I make up my mind to gamble – I have to.  If SB is all in, I call.  He does and I do.

 

He has A9. 

 

I can’t breathe.

 

I catch the 10 on the flop, I still don’t breath.  Chris tells me he’s drawing dead after the turn, I need to see it.  River comes.  I win.  He goes out, I’m through.

 

It was one the worst times I have spent playing poker in my life, it was so unbelievably tense we actually felt ill.  Ok the prize is worth it but still – I did not enjoy it until it was over.  We went for a drive after to try and chill out.  5 hours with the last 3 so unbelievably tense – was it worth it?

 

Hell yeah J

I’m in the WSOP.  Main event here I come.  I have a suite in the Rio paid for, for 15 days, and $2k paid into my William Hill account (even though it’s a crap exchange rate its still over a grand) and I get some freebies from William Hill.

 

Woohoo J
