Playing in an 18 person SNG yesterday I experienced the most luck I have had in weeks. We were down to bubble play and I was one of the short stacks. I shoved with AK and was snap called by the biggest stack at the table. He had A/A. Now, on most days this matchup would ensure a quick trip to the rail for me, but not yesterday. I got the miracle 10/J/Q flop and he needed either runners to win or a king to chop. Nope. Now doubled up the same guy re-raises my A/10 suited with A/Q. Yikes!!! No way can I get lucky twice in a row. Nope. I flop a 10 and eliminate him. My bad. My luck held up and managed to win the tournament. Maybe the worm has indeed turned.

There are weeks on end when I feel better getting my money in with the worst of it because I will get super lucky. Then there are the weeks when nothing works. Definitely a love-hate relationship.
Wow - 3 blogs in 4 days. You're either super bored or catching up LOL.
Are you going to Pendleton in April? i'll be there 11th-13th. Missed the $ by only a few places twice down in Lincoln City in the PacWest Classic so i am focused and looking to do better in Pendleton. Loved your story about Kenna; very funny. At least i didn't give any poker advice to T.J. Cloutier when i sat next to him for 4 hours at the WSOP last summer! (although, i did give him some of my chips!)
