Final table goodness
My first large tournament final table in NL yay! I played the $5 11:00PM tourney wednesday night. Luckily I took an hour nap beforehand because I was up until 2:45 or so. But I played well and had a nice 9th place finish out of 259 entrants. I played well early and was 4th in chips of 119 after the first break. Wasn't getting many good hands after that and overplayed a couple of them and was 35 of 43 at the second break. 27 people got paid. Until last night I had been playing not to lose and make it into the money. This time I decided to push whenever i had a slight edge so that I'd have a stack to build on if I made it into the money. The goal is to win of course. So I did well and never had a really big stack in comparison to the blinds, but my hands were holding up when I went in as a favorite. Very late night but very fun :)
