Weeks Three-Five

Week 3 was a good week for me. The points leader busted early Host busted in 3rd and I got heads up with Drunky. Unfortunately, I played horribly and Drunky took me down in pretty easy fashion. I gained a few points on the leader but was tied with 4th.

Week 4 was uneventful. I busted early, followed by Host. Luckily, the leader busted in 3rd so he only gai ed a few points.

Week 5 "Now it's officially the League." - Me.
I was about 10 minutes late and they started w/o me. Drunky had lost 2/3 of his stack and busted a hand later. I don't remember a lot of the hands, but I built my chip stack and busted a few people. It just goes to show you that luck comes in different forms. In week 2 it was a Suckoutfest. This week, my hands held up. KK vs AQ and JJ vs AJ both held up for me, as did other hands. That takes luck too. The best hand isn't supposed to win 100% of the time. Points leader (I need to come up with a nickname for him that isn't based on points) finished third and I was heads up with Host for the first time this season. Thus the quote at the beginning of paragraph. I had a pretty big chip lead. I limped with A8 sooooted waiting for him to raise. He does and I push. He hems and haws
and decides to call with QT. I flop the nut flush. Host flops a T and turns a Q. I half expect him to river his boat since I haven't been sucked out on yet. It doesn't and I take down my first win of the season (and only 2 points behind the leader).

No poker this weekend, so Happy Easter.
