Day 12

Well, I didn't play much on thursday or friday, and then today I was feeling like playing some MTTs, since I haven't played any in a while. But I didn't want to risk wasting a whole nother day if I went deep in a few tourneys that were like 5-6 hour long tournies, and busted out deep but not deep enough to make any real money, and then more than half the day is gone, and I'd be all irritated and I wouldn't feel like playing any cash games after that anyway, so I didn't want to load up a bunch of daily MTTs. So I decided to just do a 4-tabling set of the $12 180-man turbos. The tourneys usually take 1 and a half hours from start to finish, to at most around 1 hour and 45 minutes I think, and during peak hours they were loading pretty fast, maybe every 5 or 10 minutes. So it didn't take long for me to open 4 of them. In the first set I built pretty decent chip stacks in a couple of them and was getting near the money, but ended up busting before the money in any of them, so since only about an hour had passed I decided to do another set 4-tabling set, and I ended up going deep in one of them. I entered the final table with around 48,000 chips I think, and although in the past I got extremely unlucky and ran horribly at the final tables of these $12 180-man turbos, this time it went fairly well, and a bunch of people busted out pretty quickly, and I was still sitting on 40,000+ chips when it was at 3 handed. Then just a few hands into 3 handed I get pocket aces and the button limps with k j and I shove all in preflop on him, and he CALLS, lol (blinds at 2k/4k+antes). So obv I don't win cuz there's a 5-flush on the board so we tie. So ended up getting 3rd :( Probably coul have gotten 2nd place or better if I won that hand I think, cuz the chipleader was the guy I just talked about, and he wasn't very good. Anyway, then I played a few hu sngs and kept going win lose win lose win lose etc. I might play some more hu sngs later tonight after I post this, but for now here's the updates numbers:


Day 12 start: +$601.98

Day 12 end: +$666.15

Money needed: $4,333.85
