Eight days of negative results. Eight days of bad poker. I finally managed a positive day. Monday was +221 with two second place finishes. One was in the Holdem Poker Chat League game at Doyles Room that runs every Monday night. The other was the 12:30 pm $1k guaranteed game at Bodog.
I did not play much else since my losing ways had my schedule seriously curtailed. I am back in the 12:30 game as I type. I have final tabled that game twice in a row before, so it seems to be a good matchup for me.
The good news probably should come first. In Event #1 of the Bodog Poker Open, I managed 40th place for a $241 payday. I also swept the NFL. So a nice $300+ day should make me happy? Normally yes.
Doyles Room held a twitter user freeroll. There was only one prize. $1,000 in spending money and a weekend with Doyle Brunson and his Doyles Room pros. they call it the Doyle Brunson Vegas Experience. So doing well in this and getting heads-up for the prize is pretty good, no? How about shoving against your opponent’s raise with Ace ten and having him call with all his chips with Ace eight? Wee I am going to Vegas Baby….unless there is an 8 on the…OMG there it is!
Fairly soul crushing. maybe I will get my $300 in ones and rifle through it to make me feel better.
