Another win at last

Last night bought a much needed win, not so much for the $'s but for the confidence. It came in the $1 turbo. Playing all hands that came my way kept me in the hunt for most of the game, for the first 5/6 levels always in the top3. But as the hands became more scarce and the ever increasing blinds I found my self with AJ off. Betting hard and a flop of QJQ ended up losing half my stack to trip Q's. With not many more hands after that I found myself making the final table but only in last place. I had no hands to recall for the first part of the final table. I now find myself in 6th place with enough chips just for a BB, Doh! Praying for a hand to call before the BB takes me out. Nothing comes, oh well here goes BB and I get dealt 92 off. Settling for 6th place I just watch as the Sb calls and and I WIN can't remember if it was 2 pair or a boat. This change in luck sent me on an upward spiral of wins AK, AJ and back to back JJ's that both caught. I found myself top of the last 4 and never looked back. An amazing turnaround and much needed win.
Not sure whether to call all the 92 off's I get from now on ROFL

Trip T's

Well after going out holding trip T's after the flop, to a runner runner st8 4to the board I might add. I seem to be doomed this week by them. Playing quite well in the 10k teed made the last 30 or so lying just outside the money with I think 200/400 blinds. The table folds to the player next to me who limps, I push allin holding AK off. The SB & BB both fold leaving he 2 of us. He does nothing then just as he is about to time out he calls showing AT off. Nice good chance to double I think....till the flop. T3T thats all she wrote dam trip T's lose then they beat me in both the 10k tournys.
Oh well have to wait till i get another monday off or late start to attempt the teed again, try again next weekend in the freeroll. Can't believe I can't money it yet still theres time yet or is there. More on that later
