Cracking choice Doom. Blue, don't fret it. Let them know youre pissed, if they don't GIF, **** them. Like you said you have other mates and you're off to Uni soon and will make a shit load more! (I think you are anyway!). Try to ignore POs unnecessary jibe.

These past four days have been brutal. I have learned though not to take shots at games that your not rolled in just because you hit a nice cash at a final table. Tough lesson.

Yeah, I'm not sure what my thought process was in that post, cos I'd been drinking all day, but take whatever helped from it :)

Feeling pretty shitty. Had a proper unproductive day. Only 100 hands cash, no sng's + regged for the 0.55c turbo and decided I couldn't be arsed to play so wasted money there.

lol, gl. Even though it might not be as much as you're used to it's more BI.

@ Blue, I was planning on grinding all day. My goal is to get back to $100.00 so I can play the 1.35 turbos. Making 20c from cash doesn't really help.

Your downswing must hurt though. ul m8. Better luck tomorrow.

I had a real good start to the month...been tough for me though the past 8 or 9 days. Ever since I had the final table run (which was or 8 or 9 days ago) its but nothing but downhill, tried taking some shots at some higher BI games which has been a fail. Been playing a lot of sattys for $11 coupons and shots at $100 coupons...seems like when I win a coupon and use it I either bubble out or min cash. Tonight in the $1,750 GTD (I use my coupon for) I finished 16th out 185 or so. I was 5th in chips with JJ, the chip leader raised, I shoved, of course QQ. Top 5 all got over $100, with 1st getting over $450.

I was selected to run one of the $25 stakes for the CC contest. First tournament I ran was the $400 GTD Deepstack Turbo in which I min-cashed, and everything after that has been bust.

I would love to bink a top 3 finish in a tournament on Carbon so I could run a series package deal for the Poker Maximus tournaments in September without using my whole roll. I also would like to bink a tournament on Cake to double up that stake and provide someone else with the opportunity.

Just trying to stay patient.

Pretty tilted atm. Best run I've had in a long time, shove UTG with 99 shortish get called with AK and he hits runner runner for the backdoor flush when I have one of the cards.

Standard beat I know but still pissing me off.

Virginia Tech?
More like plastic surgery college IMO.
Plastic Surgery? ... with a nose like that?:confused:

Hardly playing at all... just can't get myself into it.

Playin' just a few, amazed at how bad weekend tournament players are (just had three large CRAI on flop called off, two had <10% & got there, the other b/c (snaps) getting < 2to1 (25bb eff) w AsTh on 7c-5h-2h).. lost all 3 obv., lol.

Another was > AA (me).. CRAI on a Ts7s5h, & guy with QdJs snaps me off, trn 9s river 4s, lol.

Not meanin' this as a whiner badbeat/poor me post. More as a > "wow.. can't believe they can play this bad... cool!" (tournaments = +ev)

Think I'm going to head down to the river & go fishing for a couple hours, come back & play CC BlackChip (& a few others then too). Maybe some SNG-MTT... just haven't felt motivated to play MTT for past few weeks.

gl to all who are playing today!

Had something similar earlier. AK, raise 2.5x from sb, he flats with 10bb deep, floats a flop then shoves the turn. I fold and he shoves 2c4c, he'd flopped trips.

tbh it was a bad idea me playing. It's late and I cba. Might play a couple tomorrow if I feel up for it.
