And Jake still didn't win it.

Finally ran good in a scheduled tournament. Bust hand was JJ<KQ. Really bumped the BR!

If you can't tell I finished 4th for $133 and some change. It was the Daily Freenzy Turbo $1,500 GTD in which I put $3.10 in it.

WTG!!! Great result!

AA<QT<QJ, both hit the nut straight.

Running about 2000bb below EV, christ this is annoying.

Would comment but I think it's a little out of my league.

Another horrible day. A3<Q4, he hit higher full. Made a whopping 0.83c, ROI 16%, 2000bb below EV.

[doomasiggy]

playing again atm, 10c turbo, might reopen it if I run deep.

 

[duggs]

nice, 9am here just starting a long uni day

 

[doomasiggy]

Come on, let's get some run good!

Or not, my dear. Or we could do that.

 

[thebigdawg]

I remembered why tonight I don't play much besides turbos. Won a $11 tournament ticket on Carbon, so I got in the $500 GTD tournament at 2:30 AM est. Mainly because I seen only 60 played it in last night, and 1st gets almost double compared to a $11 45 max sng.

63 played in it, and after 2 and half hours were down to the final 9. ITM just started as well. In the middle of the pack.

For a good final table run.

[thebigdawg]

Down to final 5, im shortstack with only 14 BB's left.

 

[thebigdawg]

Out in 5th.

So how is everybodys August going?

Although I have got ate up in SNG's, I have had a good month so far. I got $10 for doing them surveys on pokerowned on either the 1st or 2nd day of the month and its now a little over $120. Two or three final tables in GTD's is why.

That is what I am going to focus on for awhile, scheduled GTD tournaments. Plan on running a series package in September for the Poker Maximus tournaments, but a lot depends on the next two weeks or so.

 

[BlueNowhere]

I'm like 182 games behind my target of 3k games this month. Also 14BI under ev which is annoying because I'd be at low stakes but for that.

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

I was B/E until yesterday night when I hit a final table, puts me somewhere like $600 up this month. My mate alerted me to the fact that I'm in the top 0.02% on OPR for $1-5 on the year

 

[doomasiggy]

Not well, still running below EV but also just playing badly in general. Gotta put in a complete hand reading/studying sesh before I hit up a table.
