Day 3: Nothing to see here or maybe there is...

Yeah well, not a great night early. I played three $1 + $0.25 SnGs without much success. Out in 6th in one, and then out in 7th in the second.

Here's a hand that kind of summed up my night to that point:

Pre-flop: (8 players) ey215 is Button with :6c :6s
UTG calls t40 (pot was t60), 3 folds, CO calls t40 (pot was t100), ey215 calls t40 (pot was t140), SB calls t20 (pot was t180), BB raises to t160, UTG calls t120 (pot was t280), CO calls t120 (pot was t400), ey215 calls t120 (pot was t520), SB calls t120 (pot was t640).


Flop: :9c :td :6d (t800, 5 players)
SB checks, BB bets t800, UTG folds, CO raises all-in t1280, ey215 raises all-in t1290, SB folds, BB calls all-in t480.
Uncalled bets: t10 returned to ey215.

Turn: :jh (t4640, 0 player + 3 all-in - Main pot: t4640)

River: :jc (t4640, 0 player + 3 all-in - Main pot: t4640)

Results:
Final pot: t4640
CO showed Th Js
ey215 showed 6c 6s
BB showed Qh Qs


Ah, but blessed third SnG. It started fairly well and this is the hand that put us heads up. The beauty of this one is more than once I had folded after raising from the button when three handed. Probably a little weak on my part, but I thought it might come in handy and it sure did.

The heads-up went longer than it should have, but I took it down. Therefore my rolls now stand at:

Limit BR: $23.91 (same)
SnG BR: $20.00 (up 1.7 buy-ins)

I feel pretty good about the first two losses even, I made the right decisions when I got my money in, it just didn't work out for me.
