Greg Raymer freeroll

Will be brief here... 160-odd/760 with no cards whatsoever. I had:

A-K once, which I played very badly but it didn't cost me much (only flat called preflop for some unknown reason instead of repopping all-in)

A-Q once, which I bet out preflop, got called, my continuation bet on a nothing flop got raised and I had to muck

A-J three times, in bad situations and they were all folded preflop - the last two may have been a little tight perhaps but I'm happy with that. The first had been raised twice before it came to me, the second was a suspicious minraise by a shortstack in early position for 20% of their stack - he gets repopped, calls with K-J but has walked into K-K which holds up, the third was the very next hand at the start of the next level which was minraised again by a shortstack in early position, exact same situation, only it's uncalled this time.

K-Q twice (one in the first level that got repopped by Freemo and got mucked, one got called in a few places and I won on the turn when an ace came, after continuation betting the flop and turn)

2-2 once (yes, that's the best and only pair I had).

I had the A-K in level 5 (75/150) - I'm on about 3210 and it costs me 450 but am still comfortable. The only hands I have after that were the second two A-J's.

I showed down 4 hands (and won 10 uncontested, thank god). One was an early nut flush which started me off nicely. The next was a 6-8 in the big blind on a 4-6-Q flop, checked, turn another Q, I know I'm leading now, bet and call by SB, river is a blank and my 6 beats his 4. One was a checked down flop-turn-river with me in the big blind which I lost. The last was my final hand, where someone takes out three players with a flopped flush. The introduction of the antes hurt me a lot, and when the big step from 100/200 to 200/400 came I suddenly find myself with less than 3BB and K-T looks like a monster. Which it isn't.
