Weekly recap:
Last week I've played three live tourneys. I've been enjoying myself on the live felt too much to turn on my computer instead, so I'm just gonna ride this upswing for the immediate future. The level of play is just hilarious and the pace of the game is so much lower than online that I can easily play a game after a day of PhD work.
Anyhow, after shipping the $10 1R1A on Tuesday I played a $25 freezeout on Friday which I bricked. Then on Sunday I played a $22 freezeout at a different venue and chopped it HU for ~$310. This includes two $55 tickets for bigger games, so I guess I'll be raising my ABI. Fine by me. Some fun hands:
FT, blinds 15k/30k, avg ~200k
MP opens to 90k from a 180k (6bb) stack (sigh) and it folds to BB (120k, 4bb). He moans and sighs, and eventually folds TT face up. MP shows KK. Praise all around for BB and a bunch of people actually said nh to MP. Seriously, what the hell?!
Suffices to say that I played like a monkey on speed all FT, I think I shoved every third hand or so. Ran K8 into TT (BTN vs SB) and K2 into AA (BvB), but every time had enough chips to bounce back and retake chiplead fairly quickly. Heads up I was dead even with the best player at the table, so we chopped the money and both got 1 ticket. There was 1 $55 ticket left and he asked for $30 and I could take it. I explained that half my share was worth $27.5 and I would rather have $30 than half a must play ticket. In the end we flipped for it, he won, and again offered the ticket to me for $30.
Nice freeroll there for me.
