Stars $15+$1.50 MTT

Been a while since I posted so I might as well Blog a Brag Post!

Last night playing on Stars $15+$1.50 MTT and somehow they let me sneak in the final table!

I was sturggling the first 2 hours of the tourney Just barely making the money at 45 players out of 315...going into the 3rd hour, I was pretty much sitting as chip leader flopping back and forth from 1st to 2nd...,

sittin at 45 players left, I'm left with 3378 in chips already making the money, its late, lets gambOol so I can get my Xbox360 on...Blinds at 200/400/50 ante I make it 1200 to go, get 1 call, heads up...

Flop: 6d2hKh

Check to me, I check

Turn: 9d

Guy bets 2200, I'm all in for less

River: 3d

my 9cJc is good, ahhh 7506 chip pot..lets play!

Next hand I make it 1200 with no contest, I steal blinds and antes with 66..

Going into the very next hand with 8506 in chips, I make it 1600 this time around, guy I beat with the J9c hand looks me up Heads up to the flop

Flop: 3sTs2s

I shove my remaining 6856 in chips and get called.

Turn/River: 5s5h

my KK holds up and I scoop a 17,962 chip pot to have me sitting quite nicely now!

It was on more key hand that helped me coast to the Final table

Blinds are at 600/1200/125 ante

I'm going into the hand with 54,110 in chips in the BB. Guy before me makes it 2400 and I call.

Flop: JsAs7s

I make it 4500 to go, guy raises all in for 10,851, 6351 for me to call, I call.

we turn our cards over:

E: AcTs
Villian: KhKs

Turn: 9s
River: 8s

DING! Strizzle Fizzle!!

Make the final table 3rd in chips and gets card dead, wow the aggressiveness scared me a lil so I played more tight than I usually would've played...but snuck in to get heads up with the guy...I go into heads up as an 2:1 underdog and just cant pull the win off...we play heads up about 30 minutes and he ends up taking it down and I take 2nd for a $696.94 win...
