Mtts have been horrible to me all weekend – I have played about 20 and bubbled about 12 in two days, with only 2 final table finishes (in games which are financially insignificant, however they are good for TLB points if they have 300+ Fields)
I have been running my bankroll up on the cash tables to cope with the misery of negative MTT variance, so here’s a few interesting hands I played.
Hand 1 – Quadded – I flop top pair, ok kicker and 3rd nut flush draw.. Does he have a set? I should have jammed the turn – thats what happens when you try to be too tricky. I am bad.
Hand 2 – Set action – I flatcall a 3-bet and hit a set on a horrible flush board… (+€299)
Hand 3- Set V Set – It’s set v set for €555 baby. (+€555)
Hand 4 – Rockets – a set of aces (+€479)
Hand 5 – Pocket Ladies – I face a tough decision with QQ on a horrid board and opt to pass. The turn-card is scary and I was sure I was up against a set or overpair. Good fold ? (- €220)
Hand 6 – Ship me those chips. – maybe the biggest single pot i have won in online poker. I would love to know what I was called with (I suspect AdKd). (+€1363.20)
apart from the last hand and owning Dan carter Heads-Up (and recording it, har har) that was all of my weekend poker excitement (yes, Carter did beat me in the rematch – I guess I had beter add that or he’ll never talk to me again haha.)
Anyway thats enough jabber from me. Bedtime.. Going to try a day of mtts tomorrow, but it sure is tiring.
