So decided to satelite into the brawl and $750k on FTP without to much hassle, won my ticket to the brawl 1st time out in the $50 and then to the $750k on my 2nd $24 attempt - this always helps to keep the costs to a sunday down and i do recommend this. Play a super tight game until you hit the 10bb stage and then just blast away when you see any weakness.
I completely screwed up my titan satelite with 69 left and 50 tickets up for grabs i could of coasted to a ticket when with 12k blinds at 600/1200 UTG i get JJ and make it 3600 (1st mistake) i should make it like 2600-2800, then MP shoves for 9k total and like an idiot i call - i mean wtf was i thinking - yes i put him on the correct hand but thats not the point do i really want to race in this situation! im so bad
So on to the majors i then played - Titan got down to the last 260 and got dealt AA in the BB someone pushed allin UTG for next to nothing and MP pushes allin and has me covered - i snapp call - UTG shows 97ss and MP has 99 - happy does but the 1 outer arrives and im out - that would of put me on approx top 30 in chips - so sick, but we’re not finished.
Brawl - down to 250 runners i get dealt JJ UTG with blinds at 600/1200 i got 12-13k approx (forget exact amount) im committed regardless of my raise so i push and button snapos me off with QQ.
$750k - worked my way up to a stack of 11k with blinds still smallish and im the bb with AA MP (CL) raises 3x i reraise the pot he calls - flop comes Q23 rainbow and i bet half my stack he shoves with QJ!! and yes of course he hits another Q!
Such a sick run in the majors.
I did manage another 2 final tables i picked up 3rd (yes again) in the $20r on FTP when down to 300k with blinds at 15/30k i shove OTT of the buttons raise to 60k with J8 he calls showing QQ and by the turn im actually ahead (lol) with 2 pair but get counterfeited on the river.
Then on Titan i make the $30r final table to bust in 5th when on the button i shove 33 into the BB who calls with AQ - gg me. This was a sick tournament as with 14 left i lost a 150k pot with AQ / KQ which still left me with 100k but at the time gives me a monster CL. I then lost another hand with 14 left JJ to AQ for another big pot and that pretty much put an end to my chances. So not bad fina tabled that one in consequetive nights.
Now if i can actually win a game sometime soon i make actually make some decent money from this game!! I suck at final tables 4 sure.
Still always nice to win on a sunday when they can get oh so expensive.
I cashed out some more money from the roll which has grown nicely since playing full time which is great. Still got like 3-4 weeks here and then on to Oz. Im gonna take Mon/Tues off and then im finally found a home game here!!! Which i got myself invited to on Wed!! Yes pleaseeeeeeeeee also going to give the local casino a ring to see i they got any games on as its not far from where we staying.
Ok guys catch you laters
