I managed to fold to a 4th place finish in the Mookie last night. Unfortunately, that means I'm tired as [censored] today, since I didn't bust until 1:30.
The random number generator was both my friend and my nemesis -- I won all three coin flips that I can remember, but I also experienced a frustratingly long card drought. Somewhere around the start of the third hour I had a pretty average stack of over 14,000 chips, much later after being dealt 32o, 73o or 85o many dozen times in a row, I was under 3,000 without playing - of even thinking about playing - a single hand.
Went out on a very marginal play (by me). Lightning36 limps with AA, small blind completes and I have K9o in the big blind. Flop is 9 high. about 7,000 in the pot and I have 12,000ish behind with an M in the 2.5-3 range. I think I can push my opponents off AK, AQ, TT, JJ and possibly QQ or KK seeing as nobody in the hand had more than 30-40k behind IIRC. So I shove and, LDO, lose when I don't improve further. You aren't going to bully aces four handed, especially with a short stack.

Probably going to go play live tonight. It's way too hot to do anything else and at least the track is air conditioned.
