Played a step1 yesterday, then a step2, and a step 3…
Today played step 4 and got onto step5 (I got to step5 before then busted AA v 99 in 1st few hands – he hits a set on flop obv.) so I didn’t bother with steps again for months.

Anyway I got a step5 ticket and saw Stevie444 and Jorj85 were registered. These are players you want to avoid as they probably have perfect SNG strategy (I believe Stevie444 has >100 step6 wins, equalling over a million$, if you believe the hype you hear..)

Anyway to cut a long story short, I killed it and am now the proud owner of a golden step6 ticket ($2100 NLHE ticket).

EPT step6 is SICK (1st gets 15k$ package to EPT Barcelona), 2nd gets a kick in the nuts ($1300).

The APPT step 6 to APPT MACAU looks a better proposition (if you like to hedge your bets) with 3 packages up for grabs (and $1800 expenses I think).. So that’s the likely candidate. It’s 2am so I won’t play it now.. I’ll prob try to grind up some more step 5 tickets and play on the weekend. Thx to my pokerbuddy Slobib [an][mtt][MACHINE!] for the rail!

played the $215 GUKPT Online festival Freezeout.

I get up to 10kish, then I get dealt Aces. on a board 876 i reraise the donk and tell him to fold
he shoves 44 i snapcall..turn 4. fcking morons.
back to starting stack @ breaktime

up to 17,300 at 150/300 level (5th/60ish)

I Managed to get TT to hold V QQ [he][had][10bb] after limping and squeezing after 3 people called.

bet he wishes he didn’t say GL! that left me 5th

Then i shove JJ into aggro raiser.. he SNAPCALLS 25bb with ATo.. flop axx yawn.

then he backdoors a str8 v my JJ
THEN he gets KK v my TT. I bust about 36th.

Fk poker. Such morons.

So i got chatbanned on celeb for talking about rakeback to some dudes on my short handed cash table. This is bad and puts me on life tilt.

Played the $109 FO on stars, lost a 30bb pot BVB with my AQ on bb versus mateyboy shoving any 2 from SB. I snapcall and he has Q8o.. I lose 10k. Then my 77 < TT, which is cool with me.Oh my lappy also went into powersave mode when I got dealt AA and I missed it. Thanks laptop.

I Final tabled the $11500 Gteed on Fulltilt (yes, fuck boss media…). ChipLeader was running like jesus on a treadmill, and outflopped my TPAK with a set of 5′s.. GG me. I busted 8th/550ish for $350 sigh. 1st paid $3.5k.

Moved to Ireland this weekend, and didn’t play much yesterday (watching Federer v Nadal etc.)

Played a long slog today, dropped about 1k on cash, playing good but running into monsters and not being able to push people off their hands…

was lookin good for a monster FT stack in the 10k Euros Rebuy (which I won the other day), then JJ < 88 for 20bb and then AQo no good BvB as the bb wakes up with KK. GG me.

Crushed a wee 1euro rebuy (LOL yeah.. These things are soft so I just load em up while I am grinding the regular boss tournies) and bombed out of everything else.

Final table was a rollercoaster, and thanks to my Pokerbuddy Slobib for the rail!

More poker underway, so maybe some more Final tables later.

Won the 10k Euros Rebuy on boss.. Easy game.

moving to ireland on sat, so need to get organised.. GG me.
