Ladies WSOP recap

0

So the tournament itself was sickly soft. I literally did not have to take any flips except two where I was pot committed anyway. Women are so LOL its not even funny. I hate to say it but I'm so fucking glad I am not like a chick in a lot of ways. WHO CRYS AT POKER?! CRYING IS NOT ALLOWED AT POKER. I was super pissed off when it got down to the final two tables (20 people left) and 18th pays. The women all decided that we should all contribute $30 so 19th and 20th gets something. WTF is that shit. Mega inducing tilt. I obv wasn't gonna do it. Are you joking me. Anyway, I was the only one who didn't want to do it. So finally I said, "Alright, I'll contribute since I don't want to feel like a HUGE dick." Yes, I said that ;) in front of grannies too. I was really life tilted from that. I mean I feel like it takes away from the bubble pressure.

During the actual tournament, I was really super card dead. I had to make things happen for myself. I never got above 25bbs. Everyone was either tight/passive or loose/passive. There were three women that were aggro preflop. There were SO many moments that I had the Phil Ivey face after Jennifer Tilly says to PA "I put you on KK." (I was super thrilled for my sunglasses mostly to hide those looks.) The hand that most deserved this look was a really super huge donk (she was defending with K2o if she hit any pair she'd just call down even if she hit two pair she never raised and never reraised pre) invested 14k of her 16k stack preflop and FOLDED the flop for 2k!!!! Yeah she never folded. My eyes had to be HUGE. I was thinking to myself OMG she's really gonna fold. OMFG. Ivey face for a good 5-10 minutes.

I also totally loved how most of the women were berating online players, one of them goes "Oh that young kid thats on High Stakes...what's his name Tom Dwayne?? Surely, he hasn't made as much money as say Jennifer Harman. NO ONE online has made as much money as these guys on the wall." (At Ceaser's they have pics of big names on the wall) I started to have a huge coughing fit as I was choking on my water at this point. I didn't see any of the live female pros that are big names and especially at the final table, I would bet my entire roll that I have made more at poker than any of them. I know that sounds arrogant but, I was really quite miffed they were saying online pros are bad.

I didn't bother saying I play online or that its all I do. I mean what's the point. Anyway, I entered the FT shortstacked with 9bbs. My AJ ran into AA ldo and I got knocked out. All those hours for a measly profit. I've been working super hard on my mtt game lately so I decided to come home and play more mtts. I won a bracelet race package from FTP yayayay!! I'm going to start out playing lower mtts because I know the variance is higher and I really need to learn them well. I know I've fixed quite a few leaks lately and need to fix more. So tomorrow I'm bribing my friend Walter (Jlizard who is a mtt sicko!) with free lunch anywhere so I can show him all my mtt hands and questions.

Well that's it for now, until next time....

XOXO babes :)
