A couple double ups from blind on blind with not so good holdings. Waited forever for a hand and when it finally came dominated from the big blind

Nerves made from steel are needed to overcome all these unlucky spots, and you are the one who can, Joe :top:

Just shows how hard it is to cash in the big events when you're up against 20k++ players. One of the reasons I am not playing much SCOOP this time.

Agreed - it’s a crap shoot which is why I like the PKOs as at least you can outclass some people along the way and pick up bounties.

I’m also focusing more on satellites into the M events with (slightly) smaller fields and meaning a cash ends up being a meaningful return. Not keen on playing through 10k players just to double my buyin...

Approaching the money in 54L. Would be nice to make a day two for once.

55L progress

1st double up to 50k - all in PF my QQ holds vs AKo, 1st bounty in the bag.

2nd bounty AQs vs their AJo.

Lost 1/3 stack playing a stupid hand to try and grab 3 bounties at once.

Finished now with $3.30 in bounties so tripled my money at least give satty entry. Didn’t like the format of this one at all, blinds too high too early so became a game of pre flop shoves every hand with no actual poker being played.

Went out AJs vs AKs having shoved over two limpers trying to steal the 1/3 of my stack they’d donated in the middle. One sadly had me covered and couldn’t get the flush done.

Got my first Day Two of this season in a couple of hours. Chip-stack just above the average with 38BBs. Dream is alive...
