I played well early but nursed a medium stack through the middle stages of the tournament. I remained patient and when we got down to the last 60 I could have easily thrown away my chips but kept it together. A table change triggered an opportunity as I jammed and was not called almost 10 times. As the bubble burst I was the shortest stack with 11k after my A9 lost to KJ with 30 left.

My table changed and I jammed 4 times and was not called. The 5th all-in I had QQ and the guy folded pocket 10's (apparently/he said), the 6th all-in (re-ship) against the same guy I got it in with AK Vs AQ. Winning this put me upto 110k in chips. From then on with 18 left I ran hot and managed to reach the final table with over 200k in chips. More on the final table in the next post.

At the tournament I met Brad Bower 'Baza88'(Dubbo)and'Eee Tee'(Wellington) http://www.eeeteekid.com both online multi table tournament players that I really respect.

I have been doing very well in cash games before and after the tournament. The Omaha games have been getting big and No Limit is always pretty sweet. I want to go on a holiday soon to either the Philippines or Vegas. I did some shopping the other day and bought some new clothes and went for a massage. We are getting a new car replacing my brothers 69' Valiant and my Astra. Uni is almost over.

We are undefeated in our bowls competition. I was leaning towards a Taylor Bowls sponsorship but now with David Holt at Henselite I definitely think he is someone who looks after his players and whom I have had a long-standing bowls/business relationship with.

We have Mr Neil Burkett as our new club coach. He is well respected and played over 500 games for South Africa. He is probably the perfect person for the role.

At Club Merrylands we claw with our fingernails for that inch.
