After the tremendous success of the first thread i started (investors got 5.5 times their investment) i am willing to give this another shot. Here's my OPR once again and for the rest of my background you can find it in the first thread.

The package:

This time i will go with 15 4.4$ tournaments and 5 11$ tournaments, which means the total is 121$+19$ markup= 140$. 10%=14$ and that is the smallest amount i am willing to accept. I will only sell 30% because i previously sold Ruseman 20%. I will start playing tomorrow afternoon (european time) so i figure by that time the 30% will be easily sold.
Will post updates as i go as well as some hands on which i am willing to discuss. GL us.

30% shipped

Received. Closing the action 3 minutes after opening it. Ruseman owns 20%, StuckInARutt 30%.

lets see a repeat of last time

Edit: Misread. Thought there was still % available.

Good luck.

I want a chunk of action in your next stake pending the results of this one. PM me whenever that is, Im interested in 20% if similar stakes.

Not that he needs my vouch in this one, but I've staked OP a few times before and he's always been really professional, good with updates, and a winner. I'd encourage everyone to jump on next time you can, before the markup gets bigger.

GL OP.

Ty Rus. Starting to load games, lets kick some donkey ass.

Nothing special going on so i'll post a tough hand from just a few minutes ago. How would you have played it?

check/fold that hand on flop. you had twice the stack of everyone going into it, no need to mix it up yet.

Also, if he's raising pf and YOU bet out on flop and he calls, SHUT DOWN on turn/river. stop firing. and when he raises on river you're definately crushed.

Youre saying check/fold to any c-bet from villain. Thats like 100% of the time he c-bets into that flop.

But it's early stages. You have 2x average stack, you didn't hit and you don't have overpair. If he cbets I let him have it here.

IF you want to take a stab at it, don't lead out, let him cbet and min checkraise him. that scares the crap out of amateurs.

DEFINATELY don't fire a third and fourth shell at this pot, ESPECIALLY since HE raised pf.

It's one thing if you're the pf raiser, but you have to give him credit for AA, AK, KK, or even and amateur unwilling to let go of KQ, KJ or QQ.

Edit* Also, your river bet CRIES out weakness. If you're going to bet 270 into a 2k pot, don't bet at all.

I have to go so GL, my advice to you is this:

Don't let yourself get to the back of the pack. sitting at 29/30, 68/70, 95/100 won't help you win these. Min cashes aren't worth it if you're not able to get to the final table. Tighten up in the early/middle stages, and don't try so many bluffs (like above). If you find yourself in the short stack near the bubble, pick a good hand and go with it. If you're being bullied, chances are you have him crushed, so send it in and try to double up.

Remember - a final table is all we need. positions 10-18 are irrelevent imo.

GL

No it doesn't, it might be a value bet too. Thats why i made it so small.

Update: Busted one more 4.4 on AJ vs TT flip, ITM in one 4.4. I am also alive in one 11$ and one 4.4 (18/27)

Suckout, but i'll take it. Busted the one i was in the money in 12th, this one is the last 4.4.

Busted in 5th. After that loss with the flush on the river i never regained my chipstack. In between i busted 4 more 4.4s and one 11$ in the most unbeleivable of ways. My JJ from MP run into AA and QQ, my AQ loses vs KQ etc. I have one more 4.4 left and when i bust i am takong a break.
