FTOPS 14 Preparation

I decided I should try to win a few more entries to cover the rebuys and add-on Saturday. It was a long and crueling final table. I entered the seat bubble as chip leader. I had no read on dude to my left. Never could put him on hand and it's possible I could have put him out earlier but eventually this clinching hand occurred:

Went out of Mookie early when I either failed to bet Evy off her flush draw or she overbet a hand that was behind mine. You can tell by speed of some people's plays that not a lot of effort is expended on the Level 2 aspect of game. Few hands later Evy let Jodann river a straight against her vulnerable flopped 2 pair and managed to jam into nuts.

Then jammed AK from BB into a button open raiser who had KK.

RiverChasers tonight 6:00 pm for left coasters. We'll see if works allows my play.
