So, my 2nd $10 tournament: I ended up losing on a KJ (me) vs a K3 (him). No big whoop, heads up play is a real coin toss in my opinion.

A little winning streak:
Placed 1st in a $5 27-man.
6th in a $1 45 man
5th and 4th in two 27-mans.
Net winnings - about $60.
Current bankroll - $91
If I get to $100, I'll switch to $10 tourneys.
Interestingly enough, the last two tourneys I lost with pocket 8's both times - to an A showing after the flop. I need to throw those away with an A showing.

Counterpoint: Occasionally I do things right
So, I've posted nothing but beats so far.
The counterpoint here is this - Hands 1, 3, 4 of a tourney - Hand 4 is a classic case of the pot odds dictating the call at the end. Started this tourney with a solid lead, and was doing well.
Ended up with a deadly dry streak of cards - literally was dealt 43 hands before I got something worth playing. Finished 236 out of 1091.

And the beat before this:
I was desperately slowplaying the nut straight here, hoping for a big bet into me. Upon reflection, I probably should have read the 100 bet on 4th street as '2 pair', and folded on the river.
Hard to get away from this, though. If you're going to go down, this is the way to do it:
