Tonight I was playing the 3.30 rebuy on Pokerstars. During the first hour, I played really well and only made the initial rebuy. I chipped up to around 14k during the first break. I get the add on and am at 16k going into the second hour. Then it starts, I go card dead. I play maybe 1 or 2 hands the entire second hour, neither of which I won a pot. Then the third hour begins, but with no new luck. It's getting close to the money by now, and I'm just concentrating on cashing. It gets to the 500/1k level and I'm sitting on 5bb's and 200 left til the money, so I need chips. I finally get an 88, push all in and only take down the blinds. Next hand I'm dealt AKo. I push all in again, this time called by an AT. Flop comes 8 3 2 rainbow, so at this point I'm starting to think I'll get to the money. Then the KO punch comes on the turn, a 10. River brings no help, so I'm out. I've been playing poker for 4 years now, and never went this card dead. Two and a half hours of maybe 3 playable hands will not help you cash lol.
