2nd Place Again... sigh
by A_Junglen on 02/11/08
Today I grinded out a TON of tournaments.I was actually running horribly in all of the bigger buy-in tournaments. I won’t bore you with specific details, but I was extremely frustrated with how the day was going. Despite all the horrible beats, I played almost every tournament with a buy-in > $50 that was registering from 4pm - 12am. I felt as though I was playing well and the fields were extra big today, making the prize pools even juicer.
Well, I did end up taking 2nd place in the PokerStars $50+5 50k Guarantee. I’m still really frustrated that I lost the heads-up match, as I had my opponent down several times, and then the final hand got the money in as a slight favorite (Overs + FD vs pair), and I couldn’t win the flip. I did make some mistakes HU and was able to recover, but in the end my opponent prevailed. $10k is still a nice payday.
I’ve made quite a bit of money the last few days, so I certainly can’t complain. I’ve also truly earned the scores - as I’ve been grinding out a ton of tournaments. February 6th and 10th combined I’ve played over 50 multi-table tournaments, which is more than I played in December and January combined.
I’m sure I’ve mentioned it in a previous post, but moving out has obviously increased my motivation to crush online tournaments. I’m feeling really great about my game and hope to take down a big score real soon.
Later,
-Adam Junglen
