Busted the $11 big (JJ<AQo 21bb) for like $150, then the €5r for $60ish and made the final table of the most meaningless tournament I've ever played. Oh god why. $825 to the first tho, but $37 for 9th place. Fortunately I'm the chip leader bitches! (tho it's a total crap shoot, I have 17bbs)

I won that retarded thing.

That's how I deal with $500 downswings! ♦

By far my best day ever, up like $1,1k.

LOL sick ROI!

Gratz!

Thanks mate! Yea, pretty sick to get like 1,5k buyins. I should brag about it as about winning 1,5k buyins, not $825. ♦

Anyway it's really great to see that all the hard work I've put in finally starts to pay off. I've played incredibly well all day and didn't really make any mistakes. Obv run hot, but I was due for that. ♦

Yep keep it up fo sho!

Told you you'd ship one soon! Okay it's probably the smallest one you've entered but $800 is far from shabby lol

That 47o raise UTG+1 8 handed. How do these people even make final tables seriously? ♠_confused:

Yea, the only reason I played it was that I had only like 8 tables running (which is still a lot at 22.45, I usually have like 3-4) and felt like just flipping. It's still my biggest online score ever and my roi in that tourney is 150.000%.

He called a raise getting like 8 to 1 or whatever, but it was still really bad because of stacks. Then again he won the hand so what do I know. ♦ All kinds of people ft/win mtts, you really don't need much skill to do that. Like in this one, I got it in way behind like 4 times and still won it all. All you need is to run REALLY good.

Didn't play anything yesterday so I can get some rest and sleep for today! Big day. Playing the €50 sunday warmup on .fr and a lot of really big/fun tournies on both sites. 24 mtts total.

One of the sickest hands I've ever seen:

Aangier15 is Andrey Pateychuk, the guy who won EPT San Remo and WPT Prague in 2011 and who was in top 30 in the ME that year too.

edit: oh yea, thats the sunday warmup on .fr, I'm itm with a 31bb stack. We'll see. I'm also in €5r and $5 big with rly playable stacks.

Yesterday's session went pretty bad, had a really great chance to get deep in the warm up, but lost with QQ vs. Pateychuk's TT for top 15 stack and that was it. Overall I was pretty happy with how I played but it didn't work out well, but that's poker.

I've made a sort of a big decision - from now on, most of my volume in mtts will come from .fr. The mtts here suit me so much more, they are more deepstacked, the population tendencies suit my style of play much better. I'll still keep playing some fun/good value mtts on .com, like the cap tournaments or storm, bigs,etc. I'll just have to put in some more money, I only have €200 here.

Also I've been thinking a lot about the 6max sngs, which are becoming really reg infested on .com. There are usually 2 regs at the table which makes them really hard to beat. We'll see.

So I tried the €10 6max sngs on .fr. And even though they are pretty easy (def easier than on .com), there are two players who drive me absolutely nuts: Yanus806 and Poissonier87. Both massive multitablers who take an absoutely unreal amount of time, making the games really unplayable and unejoyable for anyone. Even for me and I play 8 tables and very often I have nothing to do, because all tables are waiting for the two geniuses. They slow down the games to the point where it even becomes painful.
Both have some major leaks, poissoner plays only 3% of hands when 6handed and the other 2,7x/folded 9bb deep.

Does anybody know whether there's any way Pokerstars' support can do anything about this? I'd really love to play there.

Re: your player issues - contact them and see. I'm not sure if they can/will do anything but at the end of the day what are you going to lose for asking?

Yea, that's exactly what I did.. I think they should do something, it's kind of a big deal if a multitabling reg himself complains about others being ridiculously slow. I feel like if someone is so slow to the point where other people start complaining about it then they absolutely should take some action.

A bit of a rl update: Purchased some nice new things.

New phone:

New headphones:

And a new mouse:

I'm yet to get the mouse and headphones (will get those tomorrow), can't wait! I really needed those things and I'm happy that I finally got myself to buy them.

Cool, keep us updated regarding PokerStars

Busted on the exact ft bubble of $11 hot. Prob the most soulcrushing moment of my career. First I jammed my 8bb bvb w J8s<AJs, then picked up AA very next had with like 1/3 of a bb (would have doubled up to 2bb tho) and lose to 83s.. Guess I'm just not meant to win a mtt for over $1k lol.

Ouch

It is coming though!

You run the absolute worst.

GL bro

cant do anything about players being slow. unless they change the whole game and time control.

how do you play on ps.fr if you arent from france?
can you just sign up? if so do you get another signup bonus? pm me if you dont want to post it in the topic.

Wouldn't say that, if I run that bad I wouldn't even make it that far. But I do wish I'd ft bubble the $0,55 and win this one. ♦

You can sign up unless you are from countries with their own sites (like italy, spain and so on). You just need to verify your identity (id and bank statement) before you're allowed to play. That takes around 2 weeks before its done. There is a sign up bonus too, check out their website.
