Day 1 I played in a tournament at the Venetian this week. I was getting good cards, playing loose, and stacking up. Then I took two or three risks that didn't pay off and my stack got a little low. Then I ran card dead for an hour, and my stack got lower. I got pocket Qs under the gun and raised from $500 to $1200. A big stack called and a stack about my size shoved. I shoved. The big stack thought for a while, then called. The short stack had AK. The big stack had pocket 10s. I had to avoid an A, K, or 10. I had a bad feeling, but then... The flop was the 3 cards on the right in the picture above!
