Shoot the Kings!!

Straight in tonight to the $20 table (pays the top 5 $40 10 player etc.) I only played 1 hand in 2 levels,the turn gave me the nut flush so i'm chipped up early and relax!! Level 3 and i river a full house for a tidy pot. On to level 4 and people fall quick,3 go in 5 hands,why do people panic and not realise it pays the top 5,in loads of games ive seen the 2 top stacks attack each other instead of concentrating on the weak short stacked players! o well,it makes it easier for me!! Its down to me to knock out player 6 and its $40 to me and the other 4,its a bigger buy in but the standard of play is no better,plenty of calling stations and people who play bad hands badly!! This is good news for me! On to game 2,same format,but now i cant catch a cold let alone a hand. I lose a few small pots to go to 1300 chips,flop a straight that no one bites on! Soon i'm 6 of 6 but not really panicking. Its level 5 (100/200) so when i get AQ i shove all in,only to face KK,shit,i'm done for! Double up there and the $40 is mine but i'm just unlucky to run into KK. Just to finish off i drop to a $10 comp,4th hand and I get KK,do i get any action...no,sweet f.a! but i did flop another nut flush a few hands later,matey flops the Q high flush so i take all his chips!! 4 go and yet again i bust the 6th player with 10-10 against his 9-9. The whole game only takes about 20 minutes! Only $20 back for that 1 and i'm gutted about the second game but as they all say...thats poker!!! Bank now at $224. laterz!
