$8.80+R 2x Turbo

After having a 3k+ downswing the last days which nearly ruined my month I was able to cash "good" yesterday. Seen on the 10th, 11th etc places in the MTTs this month this "win" was defitinely deserved.

Could complain a litte bit about the HU which cost me 2,4k$. Had the lead with 10mio against 2 mio chips and lost it.

AJ<A4
A3<K9
KT<AK

But anyway, had enough luck in some spots to get so far so I don´t complain.


Here are the screen with some key hands:

Bubble boy stories

Half of the month is over. I have never grinded this much in a month seen over the last 15 months.

I have already 8k VPP. Compared to my 3k average/month this is really good.

This is based on the case that I have sommer break in football and I´m single again. All I want to say about the last one is that I´m not happy about this.

But let´s get back to topic. 180s and 45s are running really good. I´m up about 4k and riding on a nice upswing.

MTTs could also easily be up. But godfather variance doesn´t want to.



1st one the 3.30+R 2x Turbo. Had a really nice run and bustet ugly..

Well, that happens and you´ll ship the next one!

Yesterday was this day I though first. First I got 42nd in the 11+R [8k first] and finished with KK<A6. Happens.

Then I was able to make it deep in the 9.90 only FT paid. First 1,2k. Of course, not this much, but there were 563 entrants and you want at least reach the final table.

In the end I got 11th. Yeeehhaaa. Not.

Little bit sad but not this much seen on the nice up in the 180s this day (was already up about 1k) and I had the Saturday Speedway left (8k first).

Was able to get real deep and got lucky a few times. Won A5>KK BvB at 18 left and Q3>44 at 15 left.

With this pots I was 2/11. But I had only 10 BB because the blinds were very high caused on the guys who had to use their timebank every hand because they were money scared.

Not one reg I had marked was left in the tourney. But I didnt scoped all, so maybe 1 or 2 I don´t know yet.

Then this hand happened...

pretty standard. But aaaaaaaaaaaaaargh. The hand before I would have sucked KK with 33 if the SB wouldn´t have decided to call his A8o first..

Yeah. Was a little pissed after this, but you have to handle it. This is business and this won´t have been the last one...


But maybe I ship the Sunday Million today. Half price and probably over 10k entrants, lol.
Anyway, I´m about 4k up at the moment and it could be a lot worse.

Keep on grinding!
