OK so my week was horrid - I was losing every race, losing my 90% hands and always getting KO’d on the Final Table bubble or worse. I managed to get outdrawn x4 on one Final table, and was convinced someone had doomswitched me.

Some examples of this filth:

109$ rebuy - expennnnsive
TT no good -200$
KK no good -200$
poker - the quickest way to donk off your cash

Live last week:
KK v JJ AIPF Live cash game, 1k Sterling pot, river J.. obv.
Live MTT FT bubble STACKED, AA [me] v KK, aipf, 1st card out king, normal.

I also fell asleep in middle of the €3k rebuy the other nightand busted 20th apparenly. loldrinkaments

Other memorable hands:
Nut flush gets Straight Flushed
Full house gets Quadded
etc. etc.

I started this playing tight as hell, deciding to play it tight and just shove AK/AQ or jj+ if playing AIPF. Obv I will play connectors in position and see some flops as there is plenty of people in this field that will shove any draw and pay you off with top-pair.

AQ holds -Early gambling
I dodge a flushdraw and rake in a fat one

At this stage I was ready to move some chips and take some small edge gambles. I doubled nicely in this hand - I was sure I was racing and the aggressor was raising a lot of pots. Anyway I set up on river and its all good.

After about 40 minutes of folding, I get dealt pocket deuces. Praying for my 1 in 8 shot, I limped on in there.. I hit my set, and get it all in against an overset. But wait, what’s that - Another Deuce. QUAD ME UP LANDLORD! Now I am Chipleader. 1 Time! Because I am now in mega luckbox Quad me up mode, I limp JJ fully expecting to hit a set - of course I do and I take down a 50bb pot. A Set of 7’s Turned boat gives me another 161k Chips.. I look unstoppable… Until down to 4, I get it in good with a dominating AQ, and get bad beat as…. Normal. Out 4th for €2k Euros.

2 Final tables in a row can’t be bad though.. Let’s see if i can make it 3.
