NordicBet 10k freeroll

I played the NordicBet $10k freeroll tonight and like last week was totally card dead for the first 45 mins until I picked up AQ and went all in on a Q high board and managed to get back above the 1.5k starting stack. Next hand was AK and I was now on 2.5k. The last hand before the first break and I'm on about 3.5k and happy to make the break with average chips but I look down at AKs on the button and with just the blinds to get through decide to raise and take the pot there and then. However, I was called and after the flop it pretty much played itself! I thought the K on the turn would mean a split pot but it was a great card for me as it gave him 2 pair with his KQ and although he now had 6 outs for his full house, the river 3 doubled me up to 7.1k

There were 6276 starters and this was down to less than 1900 after the first hour! I was totally card dead after the first break but the bubble came and went and I managed to get back to 7k when I flopped a pair of 2s in the big blind and went all in. The short stack utg called with QJ and I almost doubled up. The next cash bubble came and went and I had about 4 big blinds left and went all in with KcQs in the small blind and had a straight draw and back door flush draw after the flop and hit runner runner clubs to quadruple up to 16k and up to 228/536 lol

There was something weird tonight as I won another big pot in the last hand before the 2nd break, this time with a somewhat less than attractive 72 off lol and was now in the top 100 and up to 26k which was above average again.

After the break it was pretty much an all in and a call on every hand and with the blinds at 1k/2k I needed to make a move pretty soon. The end came when I pushed with 99 and was called by TT and KK so i ended up in 288th for $6


The challenge bankroll is now $252.50
