Earthquake woke me an hour earlier than expected. First hand today 73o. We start with 60k chips, first 2-hour level is 100/200/200. So far I'm the youngest at my table, and I don't know anyone. 3 seats open. #pfa73

Despite being full of olds, this table is aggressive! I've slightly gotten the better of it so far, sitting with 61k #pfa73

The guy to my left is raising like 6-8 times BB preflop, which is just going to pump up pots here and increase variance. He also cold calls a lot. Sucks he has position on me. #pfa73

We're playing 6 handed here and I'm facing a raise and re-raise holding QQ in SB. Ugh. I called & 1 person folded. I called again on TT3 board, laid down on 2 turn to continued betting. He showed AA. Down to 52300. #pfa73

I swear I'm in the twilight zone today. First I get woken up by an earthquake in a high rise hotel, then I'm at the Main Event, I'm the young guy at the table, and everyone is opening 6xBB like it's 2003. #wtf #pfa73

So far I've ran QQ into AA, lost JJ to a bad turn, bluffed/hit/lost because of being outkicked, and missed a straight flush draw. Great table draw but I'm down to 49k.

Sad!

JcJd dealt for second time this level. BB (a female rec player) calls. Flop 862 two hearts. She fires 2k, I call. Turn 5h, she fires another 2k. I raise to 6, planning to fold to reraise. She calls and "checks dark". River 9h, she shows AhQd. Wtf? Down to 44k #pfa73

A youngish pro got moved to my table but he's to my right. I flopped a set against 4 people and no actin on a board that someone should have hit. I go to break bruised with 47300. I will hope for better next level. #pfa73

Just lost KK in weird pot with AQT two heart flop where nobody wanted to bet, aside from a small one I fired on the turn. Ac9c took it down. Now 0/4 on my JJ/QQ/KK so far. No AA yet. Down to 43600. #pfa73

Someone never showed up and his chips have been blinding off at this table. Sadly he's doing better than I am! I have 40k. Tons of pocket pairs, nothing to show for it. #pfa73

So much for the trend upward. Flopped top pair after cold calling, opponent check/called flop, I smelled a rat and checked back both streets. He had me slightly outkicked and hoped I'd fire on river. Down to 48300 at break. #pfa73

99, flopped set, rivered quads. Got the guy to pay on flop and turn but not moderately priced river. He's a rec so I doubt he had much by the end. Up to 67700, finally eclipsing starting stack. More quads please! #pfa73

Moment of panic earlier when my sole 25k chip vanished. Turned out the dark green chip blended in with the black ones and my old eyes couldn't see it through my sunglasses! I was afraid I accidentally bet and lost it as a 100 chip! #pfa73

After 7 hours of having a tight image, I raised final 3 hands preflop. Last one QcTc, flop 998, 3 players, checks around. Turn T. I fire 2500. Guy to left (rec) thinks and calls. BB folds. River 9. Nice! I bet 5k, he calls, shows QJ. Dinner with 67.5k. Back at 9:35. #pfa73
