Busto 65th & 50/100 Stud Hi/Lo

It was a short day in the tournament, but not without some excitement. I finished 65th for $67ooish.

I donk off some chips and then shove 75dd for my last 22K. The SB tank folds AJs. lol. Then I shove AQs UTG, get called by 99, and river an A. At some point after that an aggressive asian guy raises UTG 6-handed (because half our table showed up late) to 6K at 1k/2k still , and I jam like 37K with K8o in the BB and pick up some more chips. Then I raise AQs in EP, it folds to the BB who is wearing all Full Tilt gear but I don't really know who he is. He thinks for a bit and shoves. I tank and fold unhappily. The very next hand I have like 40K left and raise UTG to 9K at 1500/3000 with 99, and an aggressive asian man makes it 24K in MP. I'm getting like 1.85:1 on the rest of my stack and decide that's too good a price, but he obv has AA. I flop a flush draw but miss everything :-(.

Then after that I decided to go play 50/100 Stud Hi/Lo because it's fun and I've never played the game live before. I played for 5 or 6 hours and made $1100 due to running good and scooping a few big pots mostly, though the players didn't seem overly tough. It was a nice break from holdem though for sure. Tomorrow is the $1500 NL 6-max which I'm looking forward to because 6-max is the best. If I somehow don't make day 2 then Friday is the $5k PL Holdem.
