When the week started off it looked like i was on pace to have one of my worst weeks ever, but luckily i was able to finish it off strong. I think i was down about 5-6k after the first few days(got killed/ took a million bad beats at Omaha) but after some pretty good no limit sessions i was able to finish the week about even. After absolutely getting raped at Omaha i decided to play some 5/10nl (first time in like a month)10/20nl and i was able to put up some pretty good numbers in a very short period of time. I played for about an hour on Thursday made around 1k, played about 3 hours Friday made around 3.5k, and played a ton of tournaments today and made around another 1k. I also played live at the Wynn for a few hours last night before going out and made another 500, which felt great because the last few times I've played live I've got killed. To quote the great Phil Hellmuth "i guess if there wasn't luck I'd win every one." and as ridiculous as it sounds this quote really sums up how i feel about my last week or two of poker. I feel like I've been playing great but every time i get it all in as a huge favorite i just take some horrible beat and end up losing the pot. Hopefully those days are over now and i can get back to making a few bucks.
With today being Sunday it could only mean one thing..... football and tournament poker. I played like 7 tournaments today, cashed in 3 of them for around 1k, and got a brutal reminder of why i hate tournaments. The only cash that really mattered today came in the $215 second chance tourney where i got really deep before getting fucked yet again to finish in 16th place. There were around 1200 players with first prize being a nice 50k and i manage to bust out in 16th place for 1500 or something..... SO FRUSTRATING. Theres just nothing more disappointing than playing forever, getting deep in a tourney, and taking some horrible beat to get knocked out. This idiot tourney donk made such a horrible play and in true pstars fashion he was obviously rewarded when his K10 off suit was greater than my pocket 10's all in preflop. He made such a horrible play and if my 10's hold up in that spot i would've been in the top 4 in chips with 16 left, but obviously he hit a K on the turn and i busted in 16th place. I wish i had the hand history to show you his horrible play but i only know how to put up cash game hands and not tournament hands.
Quick summary- I have 110,000, he has around 180,000, blinds are 5,000/10,000
He minimum raises it utg to 20,000, everyone folds to me in the big blind with pocket 10's, I raise it to 95,000 and he thinks for like 5 seconds before going all in. Such a horrible play i just don't understand what can be going through someones mind to be pushing in k10 off there for all ur chips. So GAY and another lost opportunity to have my first big score.
I planned on talking about some other non poker stuff but after re thinking about that hand i really don't feel like typing anymore and am just pissed now. Check back tomorrow to see whats going on and I'm out. Here are a few hands from the past few days....
