So I got engaged to my long time girlfriend about a month ago. We took a week long vacation down to Sedona, Arizona and the timing seemed right. I surprised her by waking up really early one day and going on a short little hike here where I did the deed. No I was not […]

Please let me know if you like it and how it can be improved. I’ve been saving this blog post for almost six […]
Ended up busting about 837th with 747 getting paid. I doubled up early on with AQo vs KQ and was up to 105k. After that I bled away down to about 80k at 1500/3000/400 when utg who was the $5k NL bracelet winner young laggy guy opened utg to 7k and I decided to flat […]
Finished day 2 with 63k and finished day 3 with 53k. There’s about 1200 people left going into day 4 and I’m likely going to need a double up to cash, so if there’s one time I’d like to run good it’s in the next couple of hours. In day 2 I wasn’t really patient […]
Decided to come back for the main event after spending a bit less than a week back in Seattle. My roommates talked me into it by telling me how much EV I’d be missing out on if I didn’t play. After day1 I have 84k and I have to say I agree with them. There […]
Ended up getting 20th in the 6max Limit Hold’em for my only cash so far. It was definitely exciting and fun, but not the place I was looking for. I played with a number big name pros in this event including Justin Bonomo, Michael Binger, Phil Gordon and a couple others. Most of these online […]
Finally made a day 2. Still pretty far away from the money with 122 remaining and only 36 pay. My chipstack is 34,000 going into 800/1600. Played too many hands today to remember. Pretty much every table had some recognizable pro. Played a bit with Hoss at the end of last night’s play and it […]

Busted both of these pretty quickly. Event #13 was the weekly Saturday $1k with two day 1s, like 4500 total entrants and only 3000 in starting chips. I don’t think I’ll play any more of these because much like the plo events the starting stacks are just so shallow you really have to win your […]

Managed to make it all of about 2.5 hours of play in this one. In the first level a got a number of big pocket pairs and didn’t see a flop with any of them. I’m sort of conflicted because people seem to fold to my 3 bets with Aces but if I just flat […]

Managed to make it 7.5 hours in this one yesterday to bust ~114th of 650 when 64 pay. It was pretty grueling especially because pot limit events don’t have antes. It started out 10max and switched to 9 handed when we got down to 200 or so. You have to play mega tight in these […]
