active table.....no hands

Doubled to about 40bb before blinds went up QQ>AQ.  Everyone at this table is opening for 3x+ and I haven't played a pot for 20 minutes.  Blinds are going up again here leaving me with about 18bb.  Sitting 16/29 right now.

chipping up

Won a flip...AK>88......faded an 8 and spades on the river.  A few hands later I got good value out of KQ bvb.......Jinxed.  Opened the button with 88 and the bb shoved for 15bb.  I called and lost a flip against AK.......back to 15bb.......allin with JQ....no action.......20bb again......prob should change the title of this post but I'm not going to because I have AK all in now......no action.

2 hand swing

Doubled to 30bb 77>55 then the next hand I lost 10bb AQs<AK.  Blinds went up the next hand and I was back to 15bb.  Allin now with AJss......................no action.....20bb again 61/85.

can it get any worse

daily double A is ITM.  I have like 12bb and reshove over a 5bb shove with AT.  Shover had AK and held.  Next hand I have AQ on the button and the cutoff opens for 2.5bb.  I shove my 7bb and he slowrolls with AA.  While that's going on I get ATs in the 10r and reshove 15bb over a 5bb shove.  He has A5o and flops a 5 and holds.  The next hand I open shove 10bb with AKo and the same guy calls with AKo and obv rivers the nut flush.  On the plus side, Full Tilt reimbursed my $37  in tournament dollars from the day I disconnected.  I guess they got the last laugh though.  Down to 1 table on stars (the only stars tourney I played today).  I have 20bb just ITM.  88/172.....Need to finish top 8.

4 barreled the 10r miniftops 6-max event tonight along with 4 barreling the 28k.  In the 10r I late reg'd so I wouldn't be in for 100's of dollhairs.  I was in for the minimum (3 units) in 3 of my entries and in for 5 units in the other for a total of $144.  I just lost my biggest stack (like 40bb) AKdd<K3 after a reg (steve harvey)flatted my 3bet and flop was K73.  Money went in on the turn after the 5d gave me a flush draw.  At the same time that was going on I busted AKhh<79o.  He opened 3x UTG and I shoved like 23bb.  He snapped and the board ran out K9xx7......WP.  Ran AQ into AK in my last entry in the 28k.  Started with 11 tournies and I'm now down to 3 with ~20bb stacks in all of them.  One 10r, daily double A, and the 12k on stars.

worst day

FT was was having server problems and I kept disconnecting so I unreg'd for the later tourneys and just played the superstack and the 42k.  Missed probably 50 hands or so, so I emailed them with a well articulated bitch about a refund......we'll see.  In the superstack I lost QQ<A5 all in pre when the board ran out 5xx5x.  With 15bb left I 3bet shoved QQ against the same guy and the bb reshoved.  They both had AK.  Board ran out Axxxx.  I took mad beats in the 3r on stars before quadding up with a set of 8's right before the rebuy ended.  I was in for $27 and had a stack of 14k after the addon.  I lost AK<KK for like half of my stack right after that.  In the 40k on stars I had a decent stack at like 100/200.  Superdonk opens for 3x UTG and flats my 3bet with 20bbish stack.  He open shoved a 345 flop with A9o and I snapped with TT.....river 2 obv.  After that I banged my mouse (the one given to me by FoRsAkEn03) on the table a few times and like Muhammed Ali it took one too many shots and now it doesn't function.  On top of all that Pokerstars doesn't let you unregister for tourneys 2 minutes before they start so I was forced to play the $11 25k.  At 20/40, I 3bet a 4x open to 12x with QQ.  The button flatted and the bb shoved for 1k.  I iso-shoved and the button folded.  Shover had T8o.  Board ran out A9688.  I busted that guy a few hands later limp calling his 50bb shove with A9s.  I held against KJ.  Unfortunately I lost those chips the next hand against another player on a TT7 flop.  He had T7 to crack my AA obv.  So now I'm 1-tabling that 45 minutes in with 3k.  Sweet day.  Still looking forward to miniftops on sunday though.


Don't want all of this to overshadow the fact that TJ "FoRsAkEn03" shipped the $5-quad 30k last night on Pokerstars for $5,800.  Congrats, gg, well deserved, etc.

Guess I'm gonna go get a new mouse now.
