It's played down to heads up again. Hero has been keeping the pressure on. Most hands have been folded preflop. Then we come to Hand 252.

This hand really shows the dangers for the opponent betting with the inside straight draw and ending up with a pair with no kicker.

The next 30 hands HU were pretty uneventful. Our Hero constantly pressured his opponent and won most of the blinds. So this brings us to the final hand of HU.

Hero shoved with nut flush draw and an overcard. Overcard paid off on the turn. Gotta get lucky on some of these to win the tourney and here, hero did.

Back to a full table now. After a couple of call/fold on the flop. We come to hand 295.

I think the big thing here is how cautious our hero is with the spade flush possibility and 2 pair possibility this early on the table.

Hand 350

There hasn't been a lot of action since the last hand. For the most part, hands have been decided preflop or on the flop. Hero has been keeping the pressure on the blinds when on the button. Then comes this hand. Hero calling a short stacks all in.

Now Hero is one of the smaller stacks. Looks down at AKo and hopes to double up.

Very little action for the last few rounds. Hero occasionally has stolen the blinds. This hand is just an example of pressuring when the flop probably missed your opponent.

Since the last hand, this has been a strictly shove preflop or fold. Hero has stolen a few blinds. Only one hand saw a flop and Hero was not involved. This brings us to the final hand for our Hero.

Hand 420.
