Let me start by saying this: WOW! The Mook, along with Buddy Dank Radio, was a whole lot of fun and I'm just glad I could be a part of it.
A few memorable hands:
Early in the tourney I double up with my Aces preflop vs. JJ.
Middle part of the tourney: I flop a flush with a gutshot straight-flush draw and catch it on the turn!
Hand for hand: I'm chip leader. I raise on the Button with 77. SB, my nemesis (explained later), re-raises for another 10K and I reluctantly lay it down. He shows 9-4o.
Final table (in my first mook ever!): I'm still chip leader. Small stack goes all-in preflop with JJ and hits the set on the flop to suckout on my pocket queens.
Final table [2]: The hand that finished me... I raise from MP with 8-10 and the button (nemesis) comes over the top. I call and the flop comes 9-J-Q for the flopped straight! 2 clubs on the board, I check and he pushes all in with his flush draw. I call and he catches the club on the river. DOH.
Overall, I felt like I played really well. I got cards at opportune times and took advantage of them. I plan on playing in the Mook again, and next time, hopefully making more of an impact at the final table!
