A Semi-Nice Day
I say Semi-Nice because I didn't final table, and even if I did, if I didn't win I'd still be unhappy.
RECAP:
I played 2 hours of 2/4 sh lhe. I'm getting the groove I feel. I started to lose focus and found myself in "auto-bot" mode where I just played on instinct w/out much thought. $76 win for 2/4. THere's this huge douchebag on the pokerroom networks who trash talks EVERYONE. Tells you that you played your hand poorly, you're a fish, and that he has lots of money. So I'm basically sitting at his tables and taking as much money as I can away from him :D
I decided to play a tournament today, actually two. That's really rare. I hate tournaments because of time invested, but mainly, because of emotions invested. If you're competitive like me, it doesn't matter what stakes, losing DOES BOTHER YOU. Anything less than #1 is heartbreaking. It just is, sorry, it's not something some of us can change nor want to change. Losing makes me hungry for more, to do better. I'm definitely a little rusty, as I made quite a few mistakes but overall , my game is pretty fearless and it works for me. haha, it was a $10,000 guaranteed pool with a $5 rebuy, unlimited rebuys for the 1st hour. I rebought 8 times! at one point, I was so annoyed I pushed all in 5 hands in a row, one of which featured KK vs 10,10 and lost to a gutshot straight draw, yuck, but I was actually really amused. I finally doubled up with AA and decided it was time to play a good game, and I did. 16th/1330 people for $150
And although i don't have a 1,000 sample size of Multi-Table Tournaments I've played, I entered a $10 pl omaha tournament for fun. Out of 130ish people, I bubbled out in 11th with a set vs a higher set. Uh, I don't know how to play omaha except that A2s is a really good hand. This is how you play a tournament: instill fear into your opponent. Sense weakness? crush him, MAKE HIM FOLD. You can never lose if you never get called. get it? good.
I'm tired, although still feeling a little hyped up. Goodnight everyone, I hope to make my bankroll bigger this weekend.

Hi Mikey!
It was great to play against you in that 10K MTT. I finished 17th and kept watching you're play.
You took some beats there and ended 16th shortly after me. I must say that, I did not think you're such a great player after that crazy re buy session in opening table :), me sitting next to you, but after that double with your A(merican) A(irlines), I watched your moves during that tournament. Great play there and you were my favourite to win the whole thing. Anyway, good luck in the future!
Your friend from Finland,

fcp and wpx both have 5 handed tables. I actually prefer 6 handed just because I feel more comfortable playing tighter where as 5handed I feel pressured to play more hands. That said, I find that I do pretty damn well playing 3 handed...haha

LOL. That was really fun. How many times did you rebuy if at all? Thanks a lot for the comment and faith, I really appreciate it.
Yes, it really was fun. I re bought two times + add on. It was worth it!
All the best in the future and hope to play with you again!
