WCOOP wrap up

Well, the WCOOPs finished last night.

I wound up playing in 3 events. I played the 1k nlhe 2million guarantee, and finished around 1000 with 500 getting paid. Made a bluff river shove on a 34569 board with 810, and bb snap called with AA. Theres a lot more to the hand then that, but I'm not in the mood to relive that melt down.

I also played the 320 Horse Event. I busted around 3rd hour of this tourney playing razz, when my A2346 lost to the wheel of my opponent. My hand was (hole cards in bold) A246233. Thought I was in good shape. Villain had 3547AJ2. Puke.

Finally, last night I played the 2500 Main Event. I didn't get much going, but got my way up to 25k at a high point (starting with 20k). Finally, I lost a 7k pot when I had 15k at 100/200 25. I raised AQcc UTG +3 to 850 with one limper UTG+2. Limper called. Flop 7c9c9x. Check I bet 2200. Call. Turn Kd. Check, I bet 4400. He tank calls. River 9. He shoves. I fold. I obviously dont like how this hand turned out, but I'm not sure what I should do differently. Do I give up on the turn and hope to hit my free card? Or do I just limp? Blah
Anyway, busted a half hour later when I raised AQss, and an active player put me all in. He had 50k and I thought his range was large enough that I have to gamble my last 7k with AQss here. His AK looked good though. GG me.

I also played the WCOOP 2nd chance 500 buy in yesterday. I faired better in that, making the money and finishing 73rd. Good for 1300. Still down for the day and for WCOOPS, but not gonna complain about a cash. Atleast it stops the bleeding for a bit.

I'm gonna get back into the nightly 20r, 109, 100k, etc etc, so hopefully I'll start winning some small mtts again.
