My wife's friend came over with some other kids we both know, then the women gathered and cackled about whatever it is they talk about. I was given an excuse to be absent. I gathered up my laptop, a couple snacks and a coke, sauntered upstairs and had a nice relaxing afternoon playing poker and listening to iTunes.
Four o'clock rolled around and I luckily remembered Saturday's with DrPauly on PokerStars, a tourney I'm not usually able to play.
For the first hour or so, I was still playing in 2 FT tourneys so I didn't pay too much attention.
Fast forward 2 more hours and I was locked into a final table battle. I managed to have the chip lead coming into heads up, but lost 2 pretty horrible hands and didn't make much of a fight of it.
I don't play much Omaha High, so I stuck with playing Aces, Kings, Queens, and some sooted connector options. When the blinds were getting big I only played position and premium hold'em hands. I got gunned down by a rivered nut flush and a well hidden low straight both against premium hold'em type hands. I also played two of the steps tourneys and got a step 2 on 1 and a rebate on the other.
I'll have to give some PLO tourneys a few more tries to see if today was just a fluke.
