After long absence from online poker, returned tonight by depositing $300 into Pokerstars account. Time to take it seriously now.
To get my feet wet again, played in a $4.40 NLHE 180 player tourney. Finished 70th. Disappointed, but satisfied with play and if cards had gone my way a little, it would have produced a better result for sure.
The hand that crippled me and eventually knocked me out. We had just returned from the 5 minute break. 73 players left.
Blinds are 75/150. I have $2000 in chips which is a little below average stack. Villain has $1595. He's UTG+1 and raises $444. It folds around to me at the cutoff and I have 6c 6h. For some reason, I don't think he's that strong, so I decide to ship it. Button, SB, BB all fold, but he calls. I must in deep shit right? Nope, the guy shows Kc Jd. I can't believe this guy decides to CALL off the remaining $1100 of his stack on KJ offsuit?!?! The board is [8d Kd 8h 2s 4c] and I end up losing. Stack now down to $405. 3 hands later, I'm out.
