I'll take it. I kinda regretted c-betting here. I'm out of position and while I did flop some equity it's a shitty straight draw. Glad I took it down.

Fast forward to level 9. I won 1 small pot and have been getting dealt shit so I'm blinded down.

Flopped the joint and no action. Flop thinking: "no worries, someone will bet this". Turn thinking: "I'll put a bet out there, these assholes never fold". NOPE.

And I get one! Big stack here was playing every single hand. I had ZERO fold equity at this table so figured I had to just get it in with what figured to be two live cards and hope for the best. If other players came along I had a hand that played decent multiway as well. But it ended up being heads up and he had T9o. Fortunately I got there on the turn and tripped it up on the river just for good measure. I of course type "lucky 7s" in the chat. Now we're close to the money.

Right before we get to the final 50, this hand comes up:

I flop a really good hand with a pair and a flush draw but decide not to bet in this spot. Not sure how I would have responded if the big stack behind me had bet flop. Turn I have too good of a hand with two pair plus the flush draw, so I ship it in. I get two folds, I'll take it. A few hands later we're in the money.

But as it goes: fast forward through card dead city and forced all-in again.

The 7s giveth and the 7s taketh away. I go out in 38th place for a $2.75 cash. Considering how I was below average stack most of the way and was all-in for my tournament life multiple times I will take it.
