TheMoooookie and Razz

I played both Mookie events without any fan fair. It started bad in that I had complete crap for the first 3 orbits or so when I get pocket Jacks under the gun. Being the weak tight idiot I am, I limp into the pot and have to fold on the river because I didn’t raise the SB out of the hand. Then I get KK cracked by 63 on a flopped straight by my opponent. He raised from the button and I re-raised 3x his raise. Bad luck there. Anyway, I also played the 2nd chance event and didn’t last very long. It was stud h/l and being without the luck-box action didn’t help.

I also play the regular razz tourney I like to play and went out in the middle of the field. I chipped up early but didn’t get much for playable hands. In this tourney you get to a point that you have to make a stand and I did to no avail. Additionally I played in a $2 tourney and chipped up nice early and held the chip lead for a good portion of the tourney. But then I played 1010 like aces and got knocked out when I new I was behind. It was a $2 tourney and I made a stupid push. Anyway, the idiot winner types some rude comment in the chat box after I get beat and I go off. I’m on dumb-ass tilt and proceed to hit the Razz cash tables for a while.

This was a bad decision because the chasers were out in full force and hitting their cards. I dropped ¾ of a buy-in playing ½ so I move up to 3/6 to chase my loses for the night. This turned out to be a good move because I won back all my loses for the night plus some. The thing I noticed was that the play was super tight and that a good play could take advantage. In my case I hit good cards but I can see that the game here could be a money maker.

I tried to log on to Full Tilt this morning but couldn’t get on. They must have a server down or something because everything else seems to be working.
