Luck plays it"s part in tournaments in so many ways. Having a hand when someone else has one that is close enough to call; having your opponents have no hand when you make a move; hitting the one-outer; getting a decent seat draw.
I feel like I"ve definitely been lucky in my seat draw in each day. Not being disrespectful to Devilfish, nor to Pete Evans, but I"ve played against Pete a couple of times now and had the benefit of watching the FT video from the GP and Devilfish was nowhere near as scary or aggressive as I had anticipated. Check called him on turn and river holding Ac 7c on a Qh 10d 4h 7d Jh he announced that I must be good if I was calling but was less than impressed by what I called with. "Stick around, I"ll have all your chips" ...
Picked up another chunk on the first hand on my table move, calling a raise again with A7 suited, diamonds this time and hitting an Axx dd flop I called a bet on the flop, allowed the turn to be checked round and led out 12000 on the diamond river. My opponent cursed his luck in Greek I think it was, but lucky definitely seemed the issue. I queried what had been said but apparently " if the diamond doesn"t come" I lose. Frankly, if the diamond doesn"t come I may lose, but I don"t lose the last 12000...
That last table of the night had two potential trouble spots in Peter Haslam and Stuart Kinghorn but we managed to avoid tangling with each other and just all focussed on the easier spots. Like Mario, a friend of the billionaire owner of the Marriott Hotel & Resprt St Kitts. Mario had a very wide calling range and an even wider shoving range it seems.
Bagged up 131 after losing a flip late on when KQhh
