I Have More VPPs Than You

Event 49, $1500 NLHE, Day 2:  Went into the day with 96k chips putting me in 11th position with 290 people left and 270 getting paid, so I had pretty high hopes obviously.  On the first hand of the day I lose about 13k chips vs the other big stack at the table when I … Read more →

Event 49, $1500 NLHE:  Felt like crap when I woke up this morning and considered taking a day off but then decided to go in at like 1:30 and I got there in time to late register and hopefully put up a Michael Jordan-esque performance.  Not much happened thru level 5, ended that level with … Read more →

Event 47, $1k NLHE:  Got it in about 20 minutes into the tourney with AA vs AK and doubled up.  A few hands later I raised with 96h in the cutoff and the bb called, he had 5k to start the hand I had him covered.  Flop Txx with 2 hearts, he checks to me, … Read more →

Event 46, $5k PLO8, Day 2:  Won 3/4 of a pot when allin twice in the first few hands in hands where I hit a backdoor flush draw, and my stack was around 40k for a bit, but it was short lived.  Lost a couple pots to some shortstacked players, then got my last chips … Read more →

Event 46, $5k PLO8:  Kind of a boring game but so many people are willing to get their money in so bad in this game, so it’s a good spot.  Hovered around even for the first half of the day, then got all my chips in with A34T vs A24Q on a Q52 flop, and … Read more →

Event 44, $2500 Mixed Holdem:  Sat down at the wrong table to start, then figured it out and moved to the right table.  Started with 7500 chips, got up to 13k on about the 3rd hand when I picked up KK in the no limit portion and let a guy bluff off most of his … Read more →

Event 43, $10k HORSE:  Was really looking forward to this one as I love the mixed game events.  I slept over 12 hours last night/this afternoon so I was feeling really refreshed.  Apparently my body was a little more tired than I thought it was.  Ran pretty bad to start and was down to 5k … Read more →

Event 41, $1500 PLO8:  Lost half my chips in the first 2 hands I was dealt, and lasted a couple hours before I lost the rest.  Kind of nice to bust early actually and have an evening off, pretty sure it’s my first of the series. $10k HORSE tomorrow, I’ll probably skip the $1500 NLHE … Read more →
