Tournament was a bust. Didnt last until first break when my AA 3! In the sb over a button open over limpers... One limper shoves 8k at 75-150 with JJ.

Then i get my remaining chips in with 77 on J74 flop against KK.

Good game. Thanks for playing.

Strong play with the JJ...my fav (I fired two bullets) was guy fires 700 into 1000 on t94 rainbow, snapcalls a 15k shove for 15k with aa. GG

Hope cash has been going better for ya.

Cash went much better yes. Plus I got called for the drawing!!! Randomly going through the entrance to cash chips and the promo announcer says winners have 2 minutes to check in. I look at the board and im on it! I choose the Bellagio tile on a board of 18 different properties and card tiers and I pulled the 1000$ slot play. (1-1000$ slot play 1-500$ slot play 16-200$ or 300$ slot play. The experience was totally cool because I walked by at the perfect time and picked the Bellagio tile because I had brought a Bellagio chip as a card protector.

Second trip to Biloxi was a success. Made out like a bandit this week with just under 7k in the black. Man I love the action poker tournament series bring to cash games. Back in Tallahassee enjoying a drink (which i rarely have) with my fiance. Toasting to a great start to 2016.

Congrats on the tournament heater. Keep it up in 2016.

Thanks for the kind words on the thread. Its funny rereading some of my posts and wondering wtf I was thinking in some spots. Its been a learning experience posting in this thread.

Unfortunately the 1-3 nl game up here hasnt run in months. Plo is now the uncapped game of choice.

Hey there,

Awesome thread. Pretty sure I played w/ u at the dog track in Naples. I was playing 2/5 and 1/2/5 PLO. The Plo game there was amazing. I was the kid in the Bears hat. I'm gonna be back there a bit over the next two months.

Keep Crushing good luck!

Procured a seat in an amazing 25-25-50 plo game. Long story short we witnessed a whale lose 140k firing 10k bullets at a time. Note to the "professionals" its not about being the best in the game... its about finding the best game and trying your damnedest to blend in.
