What a disaster... feeling sick about it.

I watched the 4k, there was one guy on the table that just couldn"t miss, he was getting sets all the time, unlucky bud.

Final thoughts:

Hardly seen any hands; and when I have them I get outflopped. Has been like this for the past few weeks, but what can you do besides being patient. Of course there were some hand that I should have played better... I will review them tomorrow.

One tournament was awful... in the $13,50 KO I called an all in with AQ pretty early on. Big mistake... even if I was sure it would have been a flip, it still would have been a bad call.

I managed to get a ticket for the Bigger $55, unfortunately nothing worked there.

And of course being the bubble boy in the $4k on iPoker makes me sick... QQ vs K3. I should have went all in a few hands later when the same big stack kept raising during bubble play. Had AQ on the button and I feel I made a mistake by folding that hand. Sure we were on the bubble and I was one of the short stacks, but a min cash would not have been a big deal here... What are your thoughts here, guys?

Anyways, I feel sick about tonight... imagined having a better start... but hey, that"s poker I guess...

Sorry guys, took some time off to watch videos and do some hand reviews because I wasn"t happy with a few tournaments. Played 3 tournaments to try a few things and in one of them 3 days ago ($22 NL Omaha) I got 2nd for $340 something... I didn"t announce it and was planning the tournament to try a few things, so it wasn"t part of the challenge.

I"m so excited by the Online Cup that yesterday that was the only thing I played But I was planning to use this for this challenge as a big thank you for your trust...

From now on I will include every tournament that I play with a buyin of $22 or less. There is an exception for League games (involved in a few leagues and I want to keep this seperate) and for sats.  Sats are only included when announced. Of course I will correctly announce everything; I just took some time off to reset a few things.

So just to show that I am able to do good in tournaments and to thank my backers; I"m including that result in this challenge (the 2 other tournies I played were a miss, of course that won"t be counted!!)


So:

Played the $22 NL Omaha on Stars on Friday 8/2/2013; and cashed for $347,80.

New bankroll: $1.201,40



And you can be sure that starting next weekend I"ll be playing more MTT"s again; so watch this space!!

Nice gesture, thank you, and good luck in other games

Out of the $8,80. All in after the flop with top set vs someone with up and down straight flush draw. Classic coinflip and on the wrong end.

No big pots in the $11 one. Just gathering some chips; bit below avg though. But for some reason in PLO MTT people start playing crazy and a lot of them go out in the first hour. So without winning big pots there"s no chance to be on top of the leaderboard
