Check back turn in hand 1?
yes probably
today I got 5 tourneys planned:
Bigger 8.8
double deuce
Bigger 22
bigger 11
Sunday Storm
Gogogo!
I think the call is not too bad given that I have a lot of out and villain was a complete maniac but cb was probably better that b/c
first break in the 8.8
so far 8335 entrants (reg still open)
598/5876 remaining
stack 7279 (avg 4236)
1080 paid
bigger 22 starting now

I just played a couple to exchange points for moneyz6 is not that bad I guess
meh just need a bit of run good and it should be 10 easy
out of the first tourney after 3 hand after hitting 2nd nut on river vs 1st nut (fml)
made it just it, in the double deuce (that's 3/4 that I went ITM in it) and still in the bigger 11 slightly under avg stack
ohlala
meeting JB later on for some food, some drinks and of course a game of poker
About time for an update
Most important of all, I met JB last week and he lived up to the expectations I had . We went for a poker game in a pub. I was out first and JB put up a good fight and bubble rather, hmmm, fishily :). It was really nice to finally meet the man and it was a shame we were both rather busy and could not meet a second time during the week. But there will be other opportunity I am sure.
I haven't played in the last couple of weeks apart from that evening in the pub and my Sunday tournament schedule. Why? because I was reviewing the final draft of the The Education of a Modern Poker Player written by JB, TT, and Manu. I only accepted on the condition that he sends me the expensive "Run good" version that he has been bragging about in his blog.
So last Sunday I play my normal tournament schedule which consists in the Double Deuce, the bigger 8.8, 11 and 22 and the Storm. I cashed in 4 out of 5 tournaments and finished 312th out of over 40K entrants in the Sunday Storm. So the run good does work!!!. Make sure you get that edition.
I did just finish the book and I have tried to pick on any little things that I could pick on but IMHO it offers solid advice and it will not take long to become a poker reference.
Also I got a new shiny phone:
The new Sony Xperia Z, and no i haven't tried to put it in water! but it is amazing and packed with features (and if I dare say Thomas I think it might even be slightly better than the S4 - that's why I chose it) .
So what new to come:
I will keep playing NLHE SH cash as my main game but I might mix so HU SNG (not rolled for cash games yet)
I will keep going on my Sunday MTT schedule most Sundays for the near future at least.
I have been convinced by JB chapter on 5CD and I will give it a go as well. It actually sounds very interesting.
And I might mix some 180s in the lot.
