I actually left my house the night of the storm to go buy a couple of friends booze because they paid me $40 to do it, and I have 4 wheel drive so it wasnt too bad for me. My school in Indiana has not had a snow day in the 2 years I've gone there, and this entire week of classes has been cancelled from this storm. Crazy stuff.

We didn't play 12pm flight due to the fact there's no rooms left at casino and I've had to make other hotel reservations/checking into that room right now.

I plan to play 5pm flight, noon flight tomm, and 5pm flight tomm if I have to...

Will fire 3 bullets at this 300k guarantee.

Go Us.

Will post proof of registration later.

Never been over 15k or under 7k.

No premiums yet except for AQ suited which we got all in vs active player on a 5k stacks 3x open when blinds were 200/400. He had AA.

Sitting with 12k nearing end of level 8.

Blinds 800/1600
Sitting with 26k.

Highest we've been was 35k.

Need some premiums...been surviving off shoving into active openers in the right spots.

Lucky I haven't ran into top of someone's range tbh...

Had a dude fold AJs face up to me when I 3bet shipped Kjs.

Due to card deadness I have a nit image.

90k...blinds 1k/2k.

We double when our 3bet ship with 44 into active openers raise holds against his AK call.

After that some dude punted off a 20k stack when he had 5/3 off and spazzed all in.

We called him with A8s from the sb.

Didn't win a hand in the last hour and both our opens with A9s and K10o got 3bet...

Meh.

Tourney should be down to 350 by Sunday, top 250 will get paid.

We'll have an average stack.

TIME TO GET ALL "IRISH" on them dude

DUBLIN TIME!

I like to "get shovvy" from the hijack or MP here on ANY flop if someone is calling my 5x the blind raise

Its an implied threat you bet that much,
you are implying that ITS GO TIME!

IF you see the "theatrical Actor" in the blind thinking about it.. the guy who knows you are making a move, admit it... you are a good enuf player to know this is an obvious move here....and that i am tight
start chirping....

you know what happens next dog... lotta money on the line...
do the math out loud for them
they LOVE that

tell them that you know their playbook.....'
you know what they are thinking
you've been watching them and respect their game but his isn't the spot to get sticky......

keep running different scenarios out their non stop

i find when i get all talky,
"all i wanted to do was cash man...."
"I got better things to do than hang out with you accountants"

you pros
you mtt pros playing for a living....

i have a nineteen year old ottie hwith self esteem issues and a pocket full of molly
you can hang out with dudes all day
a bunch of dudes with hygeine issues
ill be the one shoulders deep in FINE POO NANN?Y five hours from now while u are still sitting here

do this twice and then usually the third time you do it, they call, so wait....
wait until you have the joint.... or some other monster.....

Cancel the party...

Blinds are 2k/4k...next hand they go to 2.5k/5k.

We raise utg to 10k with a 48k stack.

Competent guy I seen 3b 7s..10s 3bets to 35k.

I shoved rather than go on with 38k stack.

We had 1010..he had QQ.

Stack dwindled when we raised A4 a lil earlier and had to fold to 3b.

Shaking it off and gonna play the 5pm $365.

They estimate 400 players.

Raise allin utg with TT instead of raise/call or raise/allin. You only have 12bbs and in the big blind next hand. Min raise looks way to strong and you don't want to allow yourself any chance to fold pre or fold the flop

I 2.5xd it specifically because I was utg and there was two super nits I would have folded to if they shoved. The other 7 I was calling any shove. I do know the textbook play is just a ship tho..I usually open rip my entire shove range if Im 15bb or less. Just this table had super nits I thought would actually just call raises with Ak to AJ and only shove JJ+.

We have almost doubled in first level of 5pm $365. Go us.

So, I been 2.5x raising like a psychopath...taking down most heads up pots uncontested and a couple guys at the table are a little irate. The fact Ive just insta mucked my hand at some showdowns really makes me look like am aggro idiot.

Im at 17k chips..old man who has been playing sheriff limps in and blinds are 75/150.

I raise to 850 with kk out of bb. He calls. 3 way to 9d6d2c pot. I lead 3k. He calls. Other guy folds.

Turn is an offsuit 3. I fire all in he snap calls with Q9 off for all his chips and we are at 30k now.

Prison raped him for his entire stack.

Rofl.
