Mini Ftops

Just so you don't think I imagine it, very standard shove with an M of less than 10. The blinds have just constantly had a hand this week. This was about 300 from the money, 9000 players started the tournament.

Flushes

These are the first 4 hands I pretty much played today from 2 mtts. The first are during a rebuy period. The next 2 a FT $26 mtt.





Hopefully I will start my run good in the Mini-Ftops.

Supernova

I am running so bad this month. Maybe because I was making the push for the 100k VPPs. It just seemed that everytime I shove in a normal spot I am running into the top of players ranges. It is very discouraging. I did make supernova today and lost only $100 which is so annoying. This one sng I dominated so well I screen shot the hand history overview.

99926.29

My total VPPs guess my first set tomorrow I will make it SN for another year. It is such a grind that I wonder if it is worth it or am I better off playing on multiple sites making more money. It would be almost impossible for me to get 200k points in a year at the volume and levels I play.

Tired today

Didn't play too much, tried some cash again. Played 4 tables, 2 meh, 1 up $150 and one sigh.

This first hand was fun, typical of my cash play.


The worst thing about this hand is gave him chips to stack me later.


I shouldn't play/post when I am tired. Got into another hand with the above donkey. Flatted with T9s after a $6 preflop raise and a caller. Above idiot calls behind. Flop came TT6, Turn was a 7 which gave me some added outs if I needed them. Got it all in on the turn and same guy has KT. GG me. Better to feed the donkeys than the good players at least.

Turning it around

Played 1 set of $16s before dinner. I played them since one of the guys I stake was just starting playing a set of $27s and $38s. If I can i will try to avoid playing against players I stake and coach.

I will win an 80-20 again just not today.

I should have taken those first few hands as an omen of what was to come. 3 losses with big pairs in 80-20s is pretty depressing especially when winning the hands gives you good stacks to make runs. The worst was in the $215 QQ to JJ he rivered the jack. After a day of work I had a min cash in something, not even sure what. I am still in a PLO8 aproaching the money but not a huge stack.

Cash was the bright side of the day again. There is a promotion on Full Tilt where if you play 2 raked tables at a time 25 days this month you get a free $50. I have never been one to turn down free money. I love making the weak river lead here http://www.pokerhand.org/?4666550 always fun. I have made more money doing that than just about anything else in cash.

Looks like I have a good shot of bubbling the PLO8. I didn't bubble it, finished 10 out of the money instead.
