Title: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: AMRN on May 01, 2011, 15:20:07 PM
888"s Sunday challenge has been inflated to $100k gte, and at $75+$5 it needs 1333 runners to cover the guarantee..... I sense some overlay here!!....  and with 5000 chips and 20 min blinds, it"s a corking structure and great value for money.  (Bank Holiday Monday FTW!)

See you there...


Warm-Up adventure tonight too.

out of the Warm Up - AK v AJ all in on turn on a A772 board early on - J river. Recovered to avg. Lost when all in pre with AA v 22 and left short. Recovered to way above avg, then lost stack in an 80k pot with AA v JJ all in pre. FFS!!!!!

Post by: MintTrav on May 01, 2011, 21:55:41 PM
AJ no good to c/r with on a J-high flop - not if they"re all diamonds and he has AdQd.

I guess I didn"t have to make it a big pot.

Over and Out.

Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: MintTrav on May 02, 2011, 00:20:23 AM
Just had quads = split pot.

Playing some random thing on Stars, all-in pre - my JJ v his AQ.

Flop 555, good. Turn A, bad. River 5, lol, chop it.
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 00:58:02 AM
60/172 in the 100k pays at 140

33.5k average is 32.8k

some run good would be great now, wouldn"t mind binking this, should make the money easy... self bok ftw!

on PKR still in 87/165 pays 120. Goes to day 2 in 30 mins so should make that, avg is 59k i have 46k. not feeling pressure though blinds 600/1200 so loads of play left.
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: cashman on May 02, 2011, 01:38:43 AM

Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 01:57:00 AM
so the PKR has shut down for the night I"m 87/132 resumes tomorrow at 7pm.

in the 888 100k GTD still going and currently on break.....

40/99 already got $170 locked up from an $9 investment so far.

I have 58k and avg is  57k

gl me, would love to FT this.

Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 02:56:52 AM
ok next break 24/50 with 94k

avg is 112k so no panic yet, a few hands in the right spots and should be able to build a good stack.

staying awake might be a fun challenge :)

$250 locked up $300 in 2 exits time....
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 03:59:19 AM
break at 3.55am wow this is long 7hrs and 16 mins in, which I suppose isn"t bad at all

125k avg is 208k so still not in deep trouble, peeked at 200k but got in a hand against qq with 1010 and lost min.


16/24 next jump is at 22 which is from $350 to $500

thank god for the Ricky Gervais show which is keeping me going, pretty much playing a bit ABC at the moment, I know I should be wider and I am picking spots.

300k is the target for the final table, I am aiming for final 2 tables and 200k first then aim to push on from there, we shall see.
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 04:15:32 AM
hit the final 2 with 243k going to plan so far.

9/18 as I post.... getting interesting!

jumped to $600 now.
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: Logie66 on May 02, 2011, 04:28:02 AM
Go James, up to 7th
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 04:31:41 AM
8/15 with $350k

KK holding against AJ suited with a sweat on the river (no fun without one)

$800 locked up now, Final table is the target, I fancy $400k to be good to get there, and with blinds at 3.5/7 we shall see...

Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 04:58:19 AM
9/13 at the moment with 256k

average is 433k but again I am still comfortable and I have over 30 big blinds at this point.


was up to 350k but got in a spot with AK where I couldn"t continue.

it seems like they all want to outplay each other. I will be happy to lock up $1k at 12th, but final table is the target.

Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 05:56:43 AM
Final table bubble 8/10 with 320k

this will probably last a while, still deep.

I wonder when I will get some sleep.......  ;D
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 06:07:24 AM
FINAL TABLE!!!!!!!!


got on with $287k which was about what i predicted and 8/9 but we shall see it is go go go from here

$1500 locked up

$21k up top, yummy
Title: Re: Sunday Night Valyoooo
Post by: jbworldwide on May 02, 2011, 06:30:47 AM
so yeh I finished 8th for $2k

bit disappointed really.

Folded round to button I had about 9 bb in the BB with 109 suited, button min raises I shove he calls 150k more with KQ off

flop Q83 two clubs

somehow I miss all my outs and busto. :( shame if that had binked i think I would have been good.

Thanks for all the congrats.

A friend of mine also took down the Sunday Warm up!

I still feel a bit gutted how it worked out, but I think my play is fine and it is just one of those things.

Tonight, I am still in the PKR tournament, and that starts up again in 40 mins, I will keep this thread updated.

Might have a stab at the twins tonight as well.
