I kept focusing on hand 30 which was a catastrophe for me, but I am not sure I would have played it much different. Maybe I could have checked in the end and survived with a little pot, but I felt like "make it or break it". After all it was A9 and I have a reputation to live up to. Need to be irrational on some hands :) I also have to admit that I had a bad read on benkogambit. Should have tought about his habit of playing low pairs.
A bit irritating to see benkogambit play a succesful A9 hand a couple of hands later - no hard feelings:)
Otherwise, its just to gratulate MrEmc2 with a good third, and commend you MrSmith for nice aggressive playing in the last hands heads up - well done!
Looking forward to the next game.. have a nice weekend!
Well done MrSmith999,
