Bene a few slow days o nthe tables not making any profit but also not losing a s**t load of BR.
PLaying 2 tournaments at the moment and sitting nea top 10 of both.
Playing a 5.50$ 6 max Turbo on PP and sitting 12/110 currently with more than 250$ up top!
Also playing a 1.10$ 750$ gtd and sitting 11/143 just after add-on stage now the fun begins.
Hit Quad Jacks on the flop in the 750$ gtd but couldnt get paid off unfortunately : (.
I'll update the further in we get!
------------ Ouch just dumped out of the 5.50$ with pockeyt JJ vs 88 and of course he hits 8 and game over.
Mojo not back
WOW just lost majority of stack as idiot call off his stack with A8 preflop against 9's and he hits two pair on flop. still have few chips but it'll be a push fest from now on.
------------ Just got alot of chips back wit hA10 hiting runner runner qj for staright and triple up!
------------ WOW just got it in preflop with 9's against A8 and it held for once! Actually have more chips now then when i added on. form 3300 to 30K in 5 or 6 hands.

I really do admire the amount of tournaments you can play at a time. My concentration levels are so low, that i could never be able to do what you are doing. Good luck on the tables and keep posting these fascinating updates

Nice Quads and gratz for you winning! It can´t be a big cash every day, but when you play your a-game was your next big cash not far away And it seems that you are on the right way again to reach your next final table.
When in the end you collect a high combination (like 4 identical or straight flush) then this pleasantly influences the mood and the incentive for the game goes up ... I congratulate you with a new success and wish you good luck in the game and big combinations

Posted by StheP: nice you are ITM now FT hunt begins
------------ gg that 66 vs QQ phucked you...still nice profit for 1,10$ buy in tournie
Hey buddy STheP ! Question for you regarding this hand. I think I only had about 10-12 BB left, is this appropriate shove/call in this spot or should I have dumped it and hoped for another decent hand?
My thought process was that with 10 BB or close to that it was an auto shove/call at this point, do you agree mate ?
Anyone else that wants to chime in is more than welcom hand played very simply.
66 in BB position and MP1 i believe is the shover preflop. i had around 10-12 BB at the time and getting shorter every fold. Villain ended up with pocket QQ and it held.

in most of the cases its shove calling hand with less than 10BB with more than 10BB like you had 12BB I think its not calling hand, maybe if you want to gamble, but its shoving hand for sure, unless there is ICM pressuer, and if there is huge payjump ahead than probably its fold... shoving 12BB with 66 in that moment is preaty fine... I wouldnt call shove, but probably would shove, because you have extra fold equity

well what can i say the irish dude, you definitely got some of the mojo back, but still far from switching to the top gear, but i think it's only a matter of time when we will see you occupying seats on the final tables at various tournaments. best of luck and keep us informed.
