THANK YOU !!

very honest start I love that. Everything's out in the open, nothing to be scared only the heights of success. Good luck. Will be following.

A couple of quotes to inspire:
"Where's a will there's a way"

"Fear is not real. The only place that fear can exist is in our thoughts of the future. It is a product of our imagination, causing us to fear things that do not at present and may not ever exist. That is near insanity. Do not misunderstand me, danger is very real, but fear is a choice."

"Sometimes going all the way is just a start."

A positive first impression. Good luck!

Hands posted for evaluation:
Can't post because I don't have silver status ♦ But it is just one hand anyway and not in any way crucial, so no big deal I guess. What's more important, though, is that I wasn't lazy to look after 4 other marked hands to run them through nash Made just one and MARGINAL mistake. 3 were pushed/called correctly, yey ♦

Hey ho, everybody, finished my Micro Millions schedule !

Heeeere it is:

A little "big'ish" grand total this time, but it is just because that I'm planning on attending way more events than ever before And so: the more events - the bigger the grand total obviously, BUT ALSO ! - the more events, the more chances to WINNNN ! And since the start of playing these series, I've won ~100$ throughout the first one, which was Micro Millions 4, then - 217$, then - 780$, and 60$ at the last one, even though the latter was really incredibly unlucky for me ALL throughout, but still, managed to end in the green. So ... Given the statistics that I've never had a negative total end after these events, hoping this time won't be any different Well maybe except me winning 10K$ ! ♦ ♦

Just look at this hand ...

SB: 40,304 (20.2 bb)
BB: 16,720 (8.4 bb)
UTG+2: 39,644 (19.8 bb)
MP1: 24,213 (12.1 bb)
Hero (MP2): 27,908 (14 bb)
MP3: 18,448 (9.2 bb)
CO: 23,155 (11.6 bb)
BTN: 2,370 (1.2 bb)

Preflop: Hero is MP2 with Q♠ Q♥
2 folds, Hero raises to 4,260, 3 folds, SB calls 3,260, BB folds

Flop: (12,120) 9♥ 2♣ 3♠ (2 players)
SB checks, Hero bets 23,448 and is all-in, SB calls 23,448

Shoved big here over the pot on this particular DRY board just because I was playing this PARTICULAR OPPONENT. He was a big calling station fish, and I wanted max value either from 9x, which he does have here quite a lot and is NEVER folding, or to talk himself into calling with something much weaker, as my line here might look for the fish very bluffy on this dry board.

So ... He tanked here for quite a while, and finally made the call.

SB showed 3♣ Q♣

Turn: (59,016) A♥ (2 players, 1 is all-in)
River: (59,016) 3♦ (2 players, 1 is all-in)

Results: 59,016 pot
SB showed 3♣ Q♣ and won 59,016 (31,108 net)
Hero showed Q♠ Q♥ and lost (-27,908 net)

Jesus christ ... I just can't believe HOW OFTEN I make these nice reads and I'd say almost PERFECT decisions, but still I just CAN - NOT - WIN. AGAIN and AGAIN and OVER AGAIN. Grrrrrr ♠_evil: Makes me wanna puke sometimes And SO CLOSE to the bubble, which, by the way, is even 9BI !! for these rebuy tourneys, and is a LOT. And he was THE ONLY guy that could have sent me "home" when I opened this pot ...... Lucky me. As ALWAYS. God dammit.

I particularly liked the Q3 hand, very nicely done Mr Villain. I've had a few of those stories already (MTT noob ) and expect to have more than a few by the end of the year!

Hey good luck in the MM, I may play a few myself this time round but not on that scale. May even see you in one.

Run good,

Mal.
