update

Two min cashes yesterday.  Almost a deep run in the 42k but I went card dead at the worst time.

Got up early today to play since I have to bowl tonight.

Just busted in 3 of the 6 I started with.

One was a $3.30 KO on FT.  Called a 10bb shove with JJ, he had KK.  Same guy shoved 20bb a little after that and I called with 99.  He had AJ and hit a J.

I donked out of a $2r after tripling my 6k stack AQ>JJ>AT.  I called a huge check shove with 97 on a 985 board.  He had 55.  Terrible call.

In the $22 12k I had a 7k stack at 75/150 and busted minutes later.  Guy opened for 400, I 3bet QQ to 1355 and he flats oop with 2900 behind.  KJX flop and he led into me and I folded with 5500 left.  A couple hands later I ran AK into 88 on a K8x flop.  I busted with my last 2k bvb.  78<A8 on a 842 flop.

Don't really have a stack in the 3 I'm still in but not desperate yet.

sigh again

With 42k I picked up AsKs on the button.  It folded to the hijack who minraised to 4k.  I shoved and he snap called with ATo.  Board ran out 8JQ9x.  Such an awful call and now he is CL.  Finished 66th.

ahhh

Finished 2nd in UB tourney for $130 breaking me even on the day so far.  Pretty much nitted up the final table.  Lost a decent pot with JsTs.  I called a min raise from the sb and the flop came out 3s5sQd.  He check-shoved.  I called cuz his stack was small.  He had AA.  Turn was 9c giving me more outs but I missed everything.  Four handed I doubled up through the CL KK>JJ.  I busted him in third 10 minutes later JJ>TT.  Had like a 4-1 chip lead going into heads up where I went straight card dead.  He called all my raises.  I doubled him up KJ<KQ then again 99<KK then I busted K9<AJ.  I don't think there was much I could've done about it but it still sucks. No screen shot cuz I cant find the tourney now, I have the option clicked to show running/completed tourneys but no completed tourneys show up.  Oh well 2/35 isn't that impressive anyways.

Still in the 28k too.  Lost a big pot 10 minutes before the money KK<AA obv.  Lost 20k of my 43k stack with blinds at 400/800.  Hand for hand I opened 99 and got two callers.  Flop was J9x.  I check raised the button and he flat called.  Turn was another J.  I shoved and he called with TT.  Sittin with 45k with blinds at 800/1600.  26/86.

out of A

I shoved KJ UTG+1 and UTG+2 calls off with 9Ts.

52k in UB tourney with blinds at 150/300.  Obviously CL.  Second in chips has 19k with 13 players left.  If I don't ship this.....

got a stack in the right tourney for once

Spewed a bunch of chips in the 28k cuz of a missed flush draw and got knocked back to 2900.  Then I busted a guy AK>AJ, doubled 55>A9 on a 359 board, and busted a guy playing fearless with AT.....I called his shove on a AQ733 board with 3 diamonds.  Check-called all three streets.  He had 66.  I now have 15k with blinds at 80/160 14/584.  Playin this one to win for sure.

Busted in Daily double B 88<AQ...river A.  Took a big hit in daily double A....KK<A4.....I have 10bb left.

Still cruising on UB and lingering in the $2-cubed on stars.

crazy 2 minutes

First the $16.50 deepstack on UB.  It only started with 35 people.  I had 11k with blinds at 30/60.  I had 88 in the bb.  It was raised to 210 and there were two callers, I called and we took a flop 4-way.  Flop was 84A with two spades.  I checked, original raiser bet 555, both preflop callers called, I raised to 2730, EVERYONE CALLED.  Turn was Td.  I shoved.  EVERYONE CALLED AGAIN.  They showed KsQs, AKo, and AdQd.  River Ts.  SCOOOOOOOP.  35k with 50/100 blinds. 1/22, 5 places paid.

Simultaneously I called two obv AK shoves with JJ in the 28k and daily double b.  Held in the 28k not in daily double b.  But I just tripled my 1700 in daily double b right as antes kicked in.  Feelin good right now.

can't hold but can dish beats

Started with ten tourneys and I'm already out of 5.

JJ<TT
AT<KJ
AT<J9
2x AK<QQ

Luckily I've had AA and KK hold in two different tourneys.

In Daily double A I doubled QQ>KK and i Daily double B I doubled 99>AA.
