Horse

So I decided to buy into last nights $4K Guaranteed Horse MTT and was pleased to come in 8th. Was semi short and picked up AA2c and pushed it hard. Got called by an 84Ad and they spiked a diamond on 7th, busto. Overall I was pretty happy with my play, a few minor errors. Some awful badbeats were survived, I had my rolled fives cracked by a miracle straight by a short stack. Had I won that hand, it would have put me close to the chiplead at the time and really allowed me to open up my game. Instead of bullying the table, I was forced to wait for some hands, but I managed. Not a huge profit margin, I think I won $98+, minus my buyin, but still happy with the results and I think the potential for further success is there.

I had 1 massive pot when I was short stacked around the 1st break, just after, where I ended up right back in it. It was during O8, a massive family pot to start out, so it was a strictly pot odds hand. Board on the river is 57J77 and I'm the in the SB and check, aggressor(the ultimate donator) in the BB pauses for a bit and bets. Donk 2 next to him, pauses and calls. I have 1010JQ and am getting about 20 to 1 odds to call. I think Donk 1 has either AA or a busted low draw and Donk 2 on a weak pair and busted low draw. Their reaction to the 2nd 7 lead me to believe they didn't have it. Turns out Donk 1 had AK and same for Donk 2. Went from 1K to 4.5K that hand and I was right back in it.
