Yeah I'm on a little tourney heater. Shame that the only tourney I've busted before the money in was a $10k though!

I did sell action, so it wasn't quite as suicidal as it might seem. I've got a good group of friends, many of whom play higher than me, who respect my game enough to talk hands and take a piece of me when I get in these spots.
I'm aware that some of my opponents swap action, and it is something I keep an eye on. The variance in those games is bigger than anything I've played in my life up to this point but I'm much more mentally tough than I used to be and I can have a bad session at high stakes and play a smaller game the next day without it hurting my play too much.

im out there sunday to sunday and will extend if im running good, but its by far the tournament of the year, the value and huge prizepool is worth going for, plus its only 2 hour flight.
I've got some stuff on this weekend, but I don't think I'd have gone even if I was free. I'm going to try and travel for tournaments as little as possible; I have no delusions of being a live tourney pro. It's easy to get overexcited by the prospect of soft fields and big pay days when, in reality, it's incredibly hard to make a good living with all the expenses involved. I seriously doubt if I'll go further than Nottingham for a tournament until Vegas next summer.
GL though, I'm sure it'll be amazing value and Barca is a great city. I've bought some pieces so maybe I'll have a profitable 'trip' myself
