Nice results

Came in 3rd in a $11 MTT last night. Only 140 entrants, so just $142, but it always feels good to reach a final table. This was my second final table in a week, as I also came on 3rd in a 68 man $22 recently. Not bad seeing as I've only played 4, but it's just an upswing and I have to take the bad times too. I'm a little frustrated not to have taken one of them down though, the prize jump between 3-2-1 is huge. Can't complain though, as when I came into this FT I had 5k chips (started with 3k!), and the average was 40k!

While I feel like I generally played like a complete donkey, I think I played this hand well

Villain is 40/20/5, so I can see him betting ATC here. Looks like the perfect board to bluff raise. (Sorry is this mega standard, I'm learning not to play like a donktard!)

Also had a very good night in the STTs, up $150 in only 20 games. Should have played more, but the ole' laptop was having a hissy fit, so I had to go down to 4 tables and eventually give up and play my tourney. Looks like that was a good decision in the end though :)
