    Haha yeah, sucks to be me! Busted the $11r with QQ vs A10 5 short of the money after losing the majority of my 1.5 avg stack w QQ vs AA. Roll sits at $1760, back to good old Zoom tomorrow. Brilliant 2 days of mtts, came really close to a decent score a few times.

    9 days til Magaluf, gotta make some spending money in the next few days!

    I almost gave up when that graph hit it's lowest point, stuck it out for another ten minutes, glad I did! Felt like ages ago I last played Zoom all day, mainly due to MTTs this weekend, HUDs not working etc. I played well enough, put a couple of stacks in when I shouldn't have but over the piece it was enjoyable today. Poor volume, will get 5k+ in tomorrow for definite. +$1660 for the month, hopefully I can make an extra $1k or so in the next week and really enjoy myself on holiday! Some hands...

      Ridiculous on the river by us, tried to be cocky and get value by AK and got absolutely pwned. x turn for pot control as regs bet/x/bet their overpairs...

        3bet flop or just flat? Have to raise his turn bet if we wanna play for stacks.

          Don't think villain x's turn w As and river sizing is never Ks, but I really don't like just calling here, so I prefer to shove. It's a weird spot, but I like my play. Open to suggestions.

            Panicked OTR, wasn't sure what to do. If I x then 99% of the time he'll x/b, should probs just bet like 1/2 pot.

              Thought when I was up 4 BIs after 500 hands today was gonna be a good day. Now I think I'll lie in the foetal position and listen to this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6pHNkOQCIzk

              Just kidding, tomorrow will be a better day roll at $1400 (lost $200 and had to cash out $100). On Sunday I have to take out $1000 for Magaluf, hopefully a winning few days between now and then mean that I won't have to replenish my roll too much from my next $1600 bonus. One or two hands...

              This is spewy in hindsight as we're just trying to get him to believe we have AK. He timed down from 90 seconds to about 3 seconds, longest 87 seconds of my life!

                      Looking through my HEM for hands there and noticed a lot of spew today, disappointing to see.

                      Tomorrow will be better! Regular breaks etc.

                      The penis-graph conjecture:

                      Angle of graph at given point = angle of penis at same point.

                      How is this reflected in your experience over the past 24 hours?
