God evening boys and girls it's your boy TheIrish77 and decided I wasn't tired yet and jump on the MTT's on Stars and things are going very well to start.
3 tourneys running and at break.
The Hot 1.10$ 1.5k gtd. Sitting 25/900 but still early but up to over 21k stack and playing great/got lucky a bit with river flush chase.
Also playing a 0.55cent 6 max hyper-turbo and near top 100 with 355 players to go. top 90 get paid.
------------ now 12th in the hyper turbo.
------------ Here's just a couple of the big hands so far for your enjoyment.
------------ just finsihed another break and took a big hit on my stack flopped a flush draw and a guy hit a 9 on flop and called my shove and it held now 45/55. 81k stack need some help.
Another good run but will it be great? misplayed one hand all game and cost me more than half my stack. was top 5 for whole thing and 1st for most of it.
hope to double up soon and get back into this thing.
wish me luck.
------------ just doubled up and stole blinds right after.

Another winning day for our boy TheIrish and he really is playing these tournaments so well. I enjoy reading about all the tournies he plays in and he invariably makes the money in most of them. Well done again to him

nice to see this TheIrish dude trying to usurp the virtual tables of pokerstars and annihilate the opposition. and even nicer thing is that he is doing really great- results and not just any results, but epic results are coming in and profit is there to be seen by the demanding public.
Again a small gain at you I see ... I'm a little sorry for the long time MTT tournaments and I'm usually just in ... freerolls and play for cash, I prefer sitngo and cash games ... Congratulations and good luck in the future tournaments

Posted by jessthehuman: Good luck with your games. In your other thread you said you were going to play some TCOOP events, is that still happening?
The Buyins for those are a few orders of magnitude above these games
No I've been a bit too pre occupied to focus on bigger buy-in's at the moment. Have the cash in the account to play quite a few but have had some personal stuff and extra life expenses pop up this week. I might join one on Monday after the girlfriend heads back to work but usually the weekends are hard for me to play.
I'll of course update when I do play and try to make some decent runs.
Hey theIrish77! Good to know you're continously doing good in MTTs. It's all about keeping a positive attitude, get the hours/volume in and in time the big results will come. Any win is a good win but in the end we all do this for the it's all about the really deep runs. Top 4 finishes are where the money is at!
Good luck with your tournaments. See you on the tables!

GL if you do. Would certainly be nice to get into the top 5 of one of those $80+ TCOOP events..
I don't think I can wake up that early these days.. I used to wake at 2,3-4AM to play EURO/USA timed games.. But, I just don't have that dedication these days.. Australia's East Coast, where I live is GMT + 11 hours at the moment, it's essentially night and day to the Northern Hemisphere
is not it time dear friend to go to the next level? I always see a message about your winnings but all tournaments with a small fee .. maybe it is time to increase bet and win really big money? I think it is in your power
