Sunday Night at the G

£15 + 1rb/addon - the first £15 gets you 5,000 chips, the second gets you 10,000.
I registered in the second level and cruised to the end of the rebuy period with a steady accumulation of chips, assisted by one marginal spot where I made an error in c-betting a Q high flop holding AK. Facing an allin I made the call, cursing myself for having made the bet and putting my opponent on no better than a pair with a flush draw and figuring that as long as I wasn"t drawing dead I pretty much had no choice  (in fact he had a pair and backdoor flush/straight draws) and hit the K on the river.
At the second break I had double the average chips and had it not been for the fact that the addon is double value and there was one player at the table who had a similar stack I might not have taken it.
It continued to go smoothly, with Dr Donk donating his stack to me by calling my preflop raise with  7h 2h and shoving the turn on  10h 2c 4s Jd when I held  10s Jc
And then...
From monster to out in three simple steps.
AK < JJ
AK < Q9
88 < AK

It"s a really good tournament this one - the structure allows for plenty of play right up to the final table and with the earlier start (6pm rather than midweek"s 8pm) I think it may be my only game most weeks because now that the midweek games get more runners a deep run means a 2am or later finish. I"m getting too old to do that and still get up at 7am.
