I like Talking Poker Tournaments

It was a small turnout, likely since it wasn't a league game, just a spur of the moment game. I started off well. I quickly got my stack up to over 2k. I wasn't chipleader, but I was a strong second. In fact there was a point where it was just studiopet (1st) and myself who had over 1500 chips. Then, I did a good job of doubling Robbie Robb up, made a stupid call on the flop with air. I knew deep down he had hit, but because he was so short at this time, I felt like risking it. And shortly after that, I helped to double Robbr up. I tried to be cute limping UTG with TT (only 5 of us left at this time), when Robbr raised (also quite short by this time) I re-raised, essentially putting him all in. When the cards were flipped, he shows JJ--D'oh.

The shortest I ended up was around 800. I was actually THE short stack for a while. I figured I would end up bubbling. Then Robbr was nice enough to give back my chips back when he raise, and I moved all in with AQo. He called with A7o, and my hand held.

After a ton of hands Bunny and Studio are eliminated and were HU. It was quick. First hand, Robbr folds his SB to me. Second hand, well here it is below:

Oh and here is an amusing screen shot of the table as the game ended. Please note from this picture you can tell exactly how long the tournament lasted (and no, it's not because of the clock in the bottom right hand corner).
