Bump a bit here ...
King's is now on the 2-a-day charity run Thursday to Sunday. Looks like this will be set for 5 or 6 months now that the charities are lined up. Actually got there in time to play the 'build-a-stack' last night. Didn't go so well as I fell victim to a semi-angle in a spot where I didn't really think I was good at showdown. After some decent action all the way through
Mr. OMC checks out of turn on the River with a bit of an act. So I fall for it by betting and he shoves into me!! I didn't give him the satisfaction of calling off my last 12bb and did a pretty good short stack routine for a few orbits. He had to show since there was another player all-in at the time. He shoved over the top of a bet into J
Q
K

. I love the all or nothing attitude here, but does he really think a shove is good here 'most' of the time?
Woody's also goes back to 2 charities this week. Not sure the status of the free pizza deal.
Probably laying low this week looking forward to the $400 at Firekeepers on Sunday.
Look for
"Internet Jake" on the HPT stream today from AmeriStar. He was somewhat short late on Day 1 but caught fire and then hit some key hands (set, QQ and AA) on Day 2 to get a bunch of chips. I think he also took advantage of the short handed play when it was down to 13 players to chip up quite a bit. He's not chip leader, but at least 4th of the 9 remaining. GL
