15th.... Not feeling good about it

I played in a 567 person tournament this evening on ClubWPT.com. I was doing pretty good and had a solid chip stack until... darkness. All of a sudden the power goes out in the living room. Mind you, we have a zillion Christmas lights outside and could tell those lights were still on so obviously it wasn't an Electric Company problem. We start going around the house testing all the circuit breakers. Finally after about 20 minutes we find the correct one. Internet is restored, ClubWPT.com is restored, I go back to my table and I only have $2300 in chips with 137 people left. Not good.

The poker Gods were good to me, I had great cards and before I knew it I was chip leader. I continued my aggressive play and had a ton of chips, not in the lead but top 5. 15 people to go I find myself in a big pot with one of the chip leaders, he barely had me covered. I flop the straight, check... check... bet, call, check, bet, all in, call... he had a higher straight then me, I'm out 15th place.

Oh well, life goes on. I had great cards, I played very aggressive and took note of what I was doing right and what I might have been doing wrong.

Until next time...
