Pretty good/solid day; started off like CRAP

This weekend I bought a wireless keyboard/mouse combo for $50 (bargain) and a webcam ($30). I'll have a lot of fun with these purchases. I'm a little pissed off; today I had a pretty decent day and made a big comeback, but just busted of a $33 double-stacked tourney on Full Tilt- it had a fairly small field, and I had a decent stack. Folded to button who raises preflop to 3.5x (700), i shove in for 2900 on top with an M of like 3.5, he calls all those chips with A9 of spades, and flop is 799, board blanks. At least it wuzn't a RELE big tourney. I entered all these mtt's after i wuz steaming earlier from cash games- still in a12,500 gtd and a 4k gtd 6max dub stacked tourney (one of my favs, tho small). $12.5 gtd pays $4100 to first in the field of 228 (111 left), and the 4k pays $1500 to winner (Out of 238, 79 are left). Wish me luck in those- trying to get a decent MTT score for brag rights and the $'s good- that way I can have all profit from the stake from my friend. I should be do for one I've run pretty bad in them. PT Stats for today: ran at 35/27, 23.45BB/100 and won $458 (either a little down or even for PLO at .50/1- i know with a $1k roll it's bad idea to play lol). Hands-

*This was the hand I ended my session on- this guy wuz a complete idiot, and his flatcall of the big reraise preflop wuz a bit scary. The flop was a dream; Qxx, two spades tho, so I had to play this aggressively. Luckily this guy wuz a COMPLETE calling station and i had been playing aggro against him when he made his typical min bets in position. After betting flop, defintely had to bet turn, cuz this guy wuzn't folding; however he min raised...? Thought he maybe had lower set, two pair, or big draw; either way I didn't put him on the hand he had (lol) and decided to shove in jus b/c I didn't want action killed on river, and he had put in a LOT of his stack with the minraise. http://www.pokerhand.org/?1075307

Big bluff I ran on this guy earlier; he had been playing rele retarded by min betting/calling- usually with mid pair or bottom pair with maybe a gutshot or flush draw or somethin. He played passive when weak and bet pot when strong- wut an idiot. Anyway, on the flop, i decided I wuz going to make a play. When I got called, I was sure he had like Txcc, for a big draw, and would jus c/c whole way. I decided to 3 barel bluff and get value from a draw, and if it missed just fire big. Worked well...http://www.pokerhand.org/?1075357

One of sickest value bets I've ever made... http://www.pokerhand.org/?1075359

This guy played his hand RIDICULOUSLY aweful preflop. He wuz a terrible player so I wuz felting this all day even if the K on turn didn't hit. I lucksacked the K on the turn, there's no doubt about that- I rele like the line I took postflop tho... I picked up a timing tell on him to show that he wasn't drawing after his call on the flop. So I kept betting into him big for value, obviously on the turn especially. Put him on QJ, QT, or KQ, so in which case I jus openshoved river and hoped him to make a big call- which I'd seen him do before. http://www.pokerhand.org/?1075371
