Not updated this in ages, but generally I am thinking screw poker right now.. running real bad and I am consistently losing 80/20’s, 70/30s when it matters over what feels like a big sample. I can win mtts, just not on my own accounts.. hmmm.
typical stuff I am whining about:
For top 5 w/ 33 left in the 100k on boss only 22k for 1st, obv I can’t hold when I am a sick favorite.
MiniFtops 6max. w/ these stacks and w/ 46k for 1st, this is just sick.
another Miniftops donkament yawn.
always the same shit, minicashes or ridic suckouts. I’ve whiffed some 32k and 30k scores on ftp/stars and just can’t seem to final table anything on there.. plenty of final 30s, last 50’s in the brawl etc, but never winning the final flips while deep.. So I’m moving down to low stakes mtts on European sites for a bit till I build my roll..
Queue up the self-bans from the two highest variance MTT money pits. I know over xmas I will get boozed up and try to play the 109s etc on ftp/stars, so this is a good idea:

I'll be back in Jan ftw.. 50euro mtts or less (and the boss 100k w/ sicko structure obv) until then..
Tiny Brag / EDIT: Obviously since I decided to grind smaller stuff, I created a PKR account with rakeback since my pokerbuddy benjones keeps telling me how soft it is. I played 2 mtts (5$ and 25$ 6max) to try the site out, and while the software is tilting, the players are ABC/Nits/Terribad, so I came 2nd in the 25$ 6max for 546$ (I lose 88 < ajo all in pre for a gazillion chips vs a regular heads-up) , so a good start to the grind on the eurodonk sites. Here’s my stats page on PKR.. I’ll try to get it up to 15-20k by end of Feb hopefully.
