Been A minute

I've only put in about 8 sessions since the FTOPS run and only 1 of those has gone at all well. Sunday I placed 6th in the 13:00 109 FO on stars for about 7500 but was pretty disappointed running into Aces to bust, first was just under 32k which would have been pretty sick for the TLB contest that is currently running on 2p2. Trying to figure out how to get as many sessions in this week as possible but with the Holidays it appears that may be a little more difficult than I planned. Hopefully I can crush something soon, gl to everyone out there.

FTOPS #8 CHOP recap.

Blog by : Nirvanakc

As I posted earlier I chopped FTOPS event #8 with elheroe and he ultimately took down the title as we played for the remaining 8k and avatar. Really it was the sickest run you can ever imagine and as you may have guessed it took a lot of holding good and flipping good. Standard aggression in position kind of set everyone off with about 300 left. I never showed down garbage but I seemed to have pissed off quite a few players as I was getting 4 bet shoved on by 77 for 60 bb's, kj w 50 bb's, aj calling my 4 bet shove w 60 bb's and pwning my KK, and showing JJ and 88 in the other 2 hands. Biggest most important spot was with 150 left I was 17 of 150 or so and 3rd at my table and UTG who has me covered opens to 19kish, I 3 bet KK from UTG+1 TO 49KISH SB who has us both covered shoves, UTG calls, I hate my life and call. They both show AA AA and a K rivers so I took the CL. Stayed pretty close to top ten throughout minus dropping to 21st or so with 80 left. Continued to play aggressively and ran hot so I had a lot of hands to back me up when people started taking note of my aggressive play. Ran into a couple solid players who were 3 betting me very frequently and when stacks got deep enough 4 betting became crucial to keeping a top 5 stack. Lilpokergirlie was real solid and pretty aggro 3 barreling air and certainly consistently applying pressure. Won a significant pot with 24 left off of him with an AQ high call on the T96 2 6 BOARD him c betting the flop checking back the t and firing the river and showing Q8. After that hand he laid off knowing he wasn't going to be able to push me around for I had a pretty solid read on him. Stacks got pretty deep with about 14 left so I started opening more and seeing a lot of flops. People really began tightening up. Especially when it got down to 9 or so left as the payout differences started getting serious. Final table I started roughly with 5.5 mil, Elheroe had 3.5 mil, and other stacks were 4.5mil 3.5mil 3.5 mil and 2 mil with blinds at 60k-120k. Everyone folded for about an hour except for me and the 2nd place stack so i got to around 9 mil without much contest and to 10.5 mil after the shortest stack busted and again it folded for a while while i took down small pots. then got JJ in vs. a9s and held for 13 mil vs the 6 mil and 5 mil stacks. The short stackers flipped JJ vs AK and elheroe flipped good so we were heads up pretty near even. From there we made the deal by precentage, 142k for me 135k for him and then we played heads up for the 8 k in which he flopped top two and I also flopped top pair. It was such a blast playing with all my friends railing and rooting for me. Thanks for all the support again. Until next time, peacceee.

6 tourney session

Blog by : Nirvanakc

Decided today I was going to play 6 tourneys and focus everything into them and see how it goes. Been playing for 3 hours and still in 4 of the 6 with pretty good stacks in all 4. Just got AA in vs AJs pre for 80 bb in the daily 80k on stars and he flopped the nut flush. I preceded to turn an ACE and river a boat to scoop. Kind of unreal 7 of 144. TID. results later. dueces


HAHA well I guess good poker can only get you so far. shortly after my post ^^^ I was hero called by 55 on the 9764 3 dime board. He obviously did not have a dime but it was worth his 25 bb stack apparently. Then obviously he would out flip me 7 hands later so the next time i give the top ten stack to mr. I will bust in 33rd best case scenario because i can only fold for so long before i stack off weak as shit. Im going to be pissed. I dont mind giving my stack to someone who at least has a shot but as for mr babyj58, jesus get a clue before you talk shit to me please. Like he doesnt know it takes all of 2 seconds for anyone in the world to know how big a loser he is. Who the fuck do these people think they are?

Soul Crushed

Made a deep run in both Big Doubles last night just to bubble one and get 12th in the other. Would of been my first double cash in those but oh well. Got kind of killed all night. Then ran over a 10 FO on stars because everyone just folds. had massive cl w 18 left, 1.1 mil vs 2nd's 350 k just to run really bad with 4 left. getting 2 outered and then 3 outered the next hand to double up both the shorties. Then flopped a pair with a flush draw and 2nd in chips slow played kk and I missed my outs so just like that from first to 4th. But this does mark my 4th straight session with a 4 digit score. Playing again tonight. Wish me luck.

Two nights ago I took down the 22 Deepstack and had a 6th place finish in Big Double A so it was a night in the positives but even more exciting is my friends and I have began putting our Vegas plans for the World Series into motion. Looking to go out for a month in which I plan on playing a lot of poker and a lot of golf. Should be a sickly awesome time. Crushing again tonight, will update after my Win tonight. Shibby.

Losing Tourneys HU is WEAKKK

Blog by : Nirvanakc

I got demolished for the first 6 hours of my session today and then my JJ crushed KK and I had the chip lead of Big double A with 55 left. I held the CL until there were 3 left and the player to me left went insane and when he finally showed down a hand he was weak as ever and he busted 3rd. Heads up I got QJ hh in on the Kh Qs 2h board vs K8 o and obviously bricked for a 2nd place finish. Hopefully i can have a run good on a Sunday for the first time ever. glglglgl.

P.s. i was railing my buddy JMW81215 and he got KsKd ALL IN pre vs 9d8d. the board came TdJdQd for villains straight flush and my guy rivered the Royal flush. All this in the Daily Dollar with 80 left. He obviously went on to bust QQ

Good Start.

Feeling pretty sick today for the second straight day but going to put in a session anyway. I think it's just a cold so I can handle it hopefully. Funny start to the session as a flop a boat with my 99 on the T T 9 flop and lose to TT. Not very standard. But if I run bad enough early then I can run sickly later. dueces

Got crushed all day today again, I was about to make a run in the 17:00 55$ on PS but somehow convinced myself he couldn't possibly have a six w 38 left and he obv. did so ended my session more upset than possible. Will try again tomorrow and hopefully I can make something happen.
