Well, after getting spanked this evening in a $20+2 SnG and at a $25NL table, I got the urge to sit down in one of these Full Tilt "Race for the Bracelets" tournaments. Winner gets an entry into any of the $1500 WSOP games plus $500 cash. I know, it's a long shot, but we've got a bunch of bloggers representing us in the WSOP so - it can't be THAT far of a long shot!
There were 147 entrants into this Pot Limit Hold'em game. It's currently the first break, and I'm 8th in chips out of 69 remaining players...
To be continued....
UPDATE:
Well, I had myself up to 3rd in chips out of 36, when I had myself another one of those donkey meltdowns. WTF is going on with me? One monstrously awful play per day - seems to be my schtick.
Anyway, I'm now 22nd out of 34 in chips, trying to bully around this guy/girl that has been CONSTANTLY raising preflop with junk and stealing blinds. I had the best hand until the river, when he/she caught the flush with the 4-5 sooooooooooted....
More to come....
SECOND BREAK:
15th out of 21 left. Final table (9 places) pay....
TBC.....
OUT in 20th place... KK busted by Q9s when two 9's flopped. Damn pot limit. Couldn't raise it up any more than I did pre-flop.
Oh well, I guess.... no WSOP for me. And not much FTP bankroll left, after losing $200 in the last few weeks and sucking the rest out for the Vegas trip. Down to $121... ouch. Damn variance and lapses of moronic monkey play.
