Nothing you could have done about that. Good luck in the next one.

Oh, Well. Say hello to the gang! Must be nice to be playing live again after a little break. I was trying to contact you the other day via IM to give you some secrets how to win all of your races with QQ vs. AK. It has to do with your neck tilt when declaring all-in, but I'll have to show you sometime.

I look forward to hearing some good news. Keep focused, Adam!!!

Today I played my first event here in Melbourne, a $1,500 event - and it was quick and painless, which was just fine by me.

I ended up getting QQ vs my friend Carl's (colson10) AK AIPF for a around 9,500 at 50/100. EP opened for 300, Carl made it 900 from MP, I picked up QQ in the BB. I normally would've taken a bit more time, but there was a max of 20 seconds to act on your hand. I probably gave away my hand when they started counting down the clock briefly after I mentally counted down my stack to decide how I wanted to play my hand. I came to the conclusion shoving couldn't be bad, so I shoved, Carl made the call with AK and I lost the race.

No biggie, I'd much rather lose a race early in the tournament, than get semi-deep and bust out after several hours. The 20-second clock was annoying though.

Besides the tournament, I've hung out at an FTP party, and just spent some time with a lot of poker friends I haven't seen in a long time.

That's it for now, here's a pic from today's event.
