Poker Face.........

After playing poker for more than a year, Jr and I finally went to take part in a tournament organized by Poker Kaki and Leisure World. We thought it would be fun to go gain some experience and learn from other players. I don't know about the rest, but i did learn a lot during this trip.

When to call, when not to. When to raise and when not to call any raise. How to play like a pro and not like a donk or fish. =P No, i did not make it to the final non won any prize but i am happy for my friends who does. One of them made it to the final table, securing the fifth position winning $1200+. We also took part in (re-buy) and (sit-and-go) events, i only managed to stand on till the 4th position. =(
However, Jr managed to beat me to it and got 3rd position winning $180. Thomas and Andrew took the 2nd and 1st respectively.

It is really nice and encouraging when you have strangers coming up to you and compliment you on your good play. This won't make me feel proud but give me the motivation to play even better! I am really happy that i have a couple of good play in this tournament, however i do have a couple of bad play too. Well, i definitely learn through my mistakes and would avoid repeating them in the future.


Looking forward to attend more tournaments in future!!




Day 1 :

Main Event
Only girl in the table =P

Playing with my chips when i am not involved in any hand



This is the hand that took down a big pot

"Nice Hand"
2 meaning:
First is for taking down a big pot with my hand.
Second is my own hands with nice nails.. Haha

Watching Andrew in his final 2 during the first Sit-and-go event
He got 1st !!! =)


Partying after the first day event.... Free beer and food !! woohooo


Day 2:
Re-buy Tournament


Sneaking a peek at my opponent's stack


Jr came in 3rd in his Sit-and-go table and 12th in the re-buy tournament =)

My brother, Eddie came in 2nd in his sit-and-go table and 11th in the re-buy tournament


I will definitely make it to the final table in my next game or at least secure a top 3 in those sit-and-go events la!! =D
