Though I am not up to my former play level, I am beginning to make progress on the bankroll front. Sunday I managed to cash in every buyin that I entered. I only entered three and none cost over $6 so my +$80 was ok. Sadly, I will remember the day for coming up 10 places short of a trip to Ireland.
Players Only had a gold card satellite. For an 8H gold card, you could get into a game with 20 seats to their Irish Open Weekly Final. The seats were a $268 ticket, so I was pretty stoked about qualifying. There is no cash conversion of these tickets, so you must play the event. I got whacked 13th out of 91 or so. top 3 got a $7,500 prize pool that included entry to the Irish Open Main Event. My biggest setback was running KK into AA. I think I should have been able to tell it was AA too. Which only makes it worse that I couldn’t let go of KK.
Still, cashing all 3 buyins is not too bad. I guess i will have to take that and move on
