ARGH DONKAMENTS

Frusturating day today.

Firstly I started a session of NL cash on Absolute, I get 6 tables up and running and my internet cuts out and/or my laptop becomes a lagtard and stops working. ANYWAYS so I had to cut that short so I logged perhaps 40 hands of NL10 without any interesting stackings or whatever.

I played 3 sets of 6.50 turbo SNGs. In the first set I won 1 and came in 2nd for another. Second set I made a record zero cashes and the third set I had 1 win, 1 2nd and 1 3rd. I really should have won both heads up matches in the last set but my girlfriend just called me and made me talk to her so my concentration was skewed - playing 2 heads up matches and an MTT. LOLowned, so my record for SNGs today was -(00.50c). It really fucks up days when you have no-cash sets, I'll certainly try to avoid those in the future.

The only MTT I played today was one of those stupid $5.50 donkaments on PSTARS. 1400 runners with a fairly shitty prize structure minus the top 5-6 players. I had a big stack for the first half of the tournament after I stacked 2 people when I had 99 on a 9-8-4 board, knocking out QQ and K8.

A short stack pushed for 8K, I had about 20K and pushed over the top with 88, tighty mc tight woke up with AK in the BB and called all-in for 16K, He rivered an Ace and I was down to 6K chips with around 100 people left. i think top 230 people get paid, but as I said, the payouts are SHIT until the final table.

Anyways, I actually doubled up my 6K with Q-8 against JJ when I pwned with a straight. I worked my stack up to around 75K (avg chips were probably around 185K) and I flopped middle pair with 8-7 on a Q-8-2 board, I check-raised all-in and big stack BB had A-Q, slowplayed for some reason - but hey, he got all my chips so congrats to him. I busted out 17th place, not too horrible for 1400 runners, but I was "awarded" a lovely 38$, which they kindly mixed with poison to help dry my tears until I die. Boo, so I'm kinda bitter about that, 1st place paid 1.3K or something, I would have liked to FT and/or win and/or chop. But too bad I suck and make bad pushes. I probably could hav e folded until I was in 12th place for 54$.

Boooooo

Okay thats all for now. Tomorrow I might play some NL cash, tonight I might even play some NL cash, but first I have been saving a joint for right now... so time to go indulge :D

LOL +32$ today.
