Only played a bit. Started out with a $4+$0.40 SNG that paid out a $26 token for first and $10 for second.
It got down to 3 handed with even chip stacks. I found myself once again getting crappy cards and had to fold just about every BB to even a minimum raise. My stack ranged from 2,500-to-5,500 and everyone had the chip lead at one time. I made it to heads up and was outchiped by a 2:1 margin. The first key hand I got dealt AQ in the SB with the blinds at 150-300. I raised to 900 and the BB re-raised all-in. I called and he turned over AJ, my hand held up and I now had about a 2:1 chip lead.
About 10 hands later I was dealt AJ in the SB and again raised to 900. The BB again re-raised all-in, I called and he turned over A5. Again my hand held up and I took down 1st place!
I also played a $10+$1 SNG. I got crappy cards early, and the few hands I picked up, I didn't hit the flop. Playing four handed, my stack at 900 and the blinds at 80-160, things were looking bad. I was able to pick up the blinds by pushing all-in first with A5 and the very next had with KK. With my stack at about 1,600 I again pushed preflop this time with AJ(hearts). I was called by 33. With a 3 on the flop I was toast.
Results
$351.30 Balance
+$26.00 ($4+$0.40 SNG)
-$11.00 ($10+1 SNG)
$366.30 Balance (+$66.30)
