Thanks everyone

Donka your aura is awesome dude
All your friends who you help staying awake are shipping the BIGs and the millions eh :P

22 into 9K not 8K:P

KK was a sick spot
I was chipleader at at i think 2.4K/4.8K i 3bet and 2nd chipleader whos been at my table for a while and playing 2/2 over more than 30 hands shoves if i call nad lose i am left with 20BBs
And i was manipulating the table a lot 3betting and opening 70% of pots with not much resistance and easy game post flop so gave a pass on it
I am not sure if its really +EV to fold there but i was so much in control of the situation that losing that pot was way more -ve than winning it

and 56 wasnt really bluff catching
There was a super nova 3xing whenever he opened, cbetting 90%-100% of pot size and check folding turn
So this one hand he opens 3x from early position board is AKx turn another A he checks i lead and he folds
I kept flatting him in position when he opened from late position with any 2 and bet turn and hed give up
went from 30K to 70K doing the same thing again and again with literally any2

Hand of the day though was a hand i 4bet pot where i 4bet a reg who was exploiting his BTN with 83s
He flats i flop a flush draw on a 9j8 board
I cbet tiny he calls, I check turn he bets tiny i call
River completes my flush. I overbet JAM hoping he has something and my line looks bluffy cuz if i had a flush draw i would most certainly be betting turn. He calls he has QT for flopped straight
Was surprised to see a straight was expecting like a small set or 2pair dont know why he wouldnt raise flop with a flush draw already there and we are quite deep

I play like 1 tournament a month which has like 60 runners so i dont know if the KK fold was correct or not but you won so it probably was . Sounds like you played well, manipulating stack sizes is certainly very important. Congrats again.

oh yeah that hand he raised my cbet on a dry A high board
makes no sense why he would do that, he either has a weak ace which i could get him to fold on the next street or he has nothing and is trying to represent an ace

3rd in 5K out of 92 entrants 66k
Should've won it was a very easy FT but from 4 handed we were too shallow like chip leader with 8-10 bbs
Lost kt vs 33 bvb
But really liked the way I was playing and ran pretty good as well

Tds still sucks but no rake so u just gotta accept that the rake is 20%
