my second guanlet game was a little better than my first i think. i finished 4th on the bubble though after making my donk call with pocket tens after jimmy reraised me preflop with pocket kings. well perhaps it wasn't a terribly donkey call since pocket tens in four way play is a pretty big hand, but i had a lot of chips and third and fourth place were decently far behind. i shouldn't have taken the chance anyway, but other than that hand i was happy with my play.

looking at the standings, i'm currently 11th place. however, i've only played in 2 games so far and 6 people ahead of me have played in 3 games, so i think i'm still in a decent position. we'll see how my third game on sunday goes. hopefully a win can move me up into the top five!

Congrats! Get yourself to at least top ten and stay there so that you can play in the Tournament of Champions after the season is over. I'll try to knock you out with AK in that too
