in for $255

stone bubble the 55R. this is ridiculous.

14/6 dolt drooler decides to shove a5s vs my UTG open with no fold equity. then this hand. there was a short stack on the other table but we're going for 4.5 for 1st, 400 ish for the min cash.

i have the 2nd table open here and the guy gets in 99 vs a7. so i have to lose KT vs A5s, A7 vs 99, and AQ vs 99 to bubble.

so not sure what you guys want to do. i haven't done the calculations yet but i'm pretty sure we're going to be at the $300 or so after today. i feel like i'm playing very well (some of my best poker) but just running like death deep in everything. i'm not going to complain but i don't really like my mental state right now or my flipping powers on sites right now. i'm not tilting but i'm starting to feel like an aura of death surrounds me.

yesterday I ft'ed an FTP $163, $55, the Stars 33R 6m, Stars 55C, and probably some other stuff. These are all tougher midstakes fields so I'm clearly playing strong but I'm getting sick of bubbling so many tournaments.

we can either close this up (they don't really lead to TLB's) or we can keep going after I do the calculations for today. one thing i do promise is i'm not going to tilt, and if i feel i made a marginal play because of tilt i will cancel that event + markup.

the thing that sucks about smaller field high stakes tournaments is you usually bust 8th-14th, and 1st place is like 5k (enough for a profitable day just by itself). and that's only 13 or less spots away.

215 2x turbo. half the field is marked green, there are only 30 runners and 25k guaranteed so there can be an overlay. i will tweak this MU when i'm done but right now it'll be around 1.16

busto 109R sigh. this dolt decides to 3b call and call off a cold 4b + call with AK with no reads (I had reads on the cold 4-bettor).

http://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/16...erlay-1281649/

This was a really good spot. The private investor who took 15% was a very good HSMTT player.

$215 2x still to come

glgl in the 215. we in for one or two bullets? also, look out for that Valgusmat to your left. looks like a crusher :P

ok i guess it's the perfect ending. in for one. bubbled 4 off the money (but only 18 paid 22 left so you have to still shove)

tough luck man

we'll do it at 1.16 for a very soft field.

so 250 + 2270 + 977.60= $3497.60. $3498.

I withheld $300 so

10%= 49.80
20%= 399.60

I guess I will eat and rest for today and decide tomorrow what's going on. Would appreciate if investors would post if they want to keep the package going or not.

im good to keep going with the package. i may drop my percentage down if the packages continue to be this large, but for now i'll keep it the way it is.

am ok with continuing

I guess I'll reduce my % to 5

I'm with the player541, I will keep my 20 for now, but will have to reduce if the package stays that big everyday...

Yeah, I'm in the same boat

cool thanks guys. have reduced donka to 5%. going to take the day off from most HSMTT and just keep it relaxed.

we could have def run better in the end but this is what a daily HSMTT looks like. so we were still profitable and i can chalk most of this package up to taking advantage of softer than usual holiday fields

field has softened considerably for the 109C Turbo so I'm going to register it. out of 172 players, 88 have rebought and 16 have busted.

edit: no clue what happened but late reg shut off for this 35m in so n\vm

pretty much done with most of my session but don't see how i can skip the $216 6m on FTP. 12.5 guaranteed with only 11 runners right now. MU will be 12.5/runners unless there is no overlay.

lol
