Doom switch is on

Yup....nothing is going right on Fulltilt.  I have been getting outdrawned in the most spectacular fashion....so much so, that I decided to fire up PokerStars.  Now, the main reason I don't play on Stars, is that they don't offer rakeback.  I understand from some, that they believe their VIP program is good enough.  I've never done my homework on this subject, but at any rate, with FullTilt on major doom, I fired up Stars yesterday.  Low and behold, I still had 13 bucks in the acct.

I was perusing and found these:

 At least to me, these are new SNG's, which are double or nothing.  Basically, they are 10 handed SNG's, and if you finish top 5, you win double your buyin, minus rake.  Long story short, I played about 20 of these, starting with the $10 dollars, all the way up to the $104 dollars.  Now I don't know if Stars has the 'oh he's back' switch, but I 'won', 17 out of the 20.  

That tallied up to over 5 bills, so I guess I'll keep plugging.  Give them a try, if your an experience SNG player, making top 5 isn't that hard!

FTP Million

Satellited in on the first Super Turbo, which was nice.  

I managed to survive into the money, once again being as card dead as one can be.

As you can see in the right table, Sprstoner is still in.  Good luck to him.

AHA

Ok, so sometimes the solution to a problem is so simple, it's staring right at you in the face, yet you can't see it!  right???

Here I've been getting 1,2, 3 outed over and over again, and I had my AHA moment! ........ready?

I keep getting it in with the best hand!  There you go, simple as that.  Sooooooo........beware everyone......Twoblackaces is about to go on a tear!  starting right now!   (Har har har)

To plagerize Mr Fuel, TWOBLACKACES is gold for me......not for you! LoL

Winnah

This is from another 45 man $75 buy-in SNG.  I also had a 4th tonight.  I've also taken some sick beats in these too, but overall, I'm not doing badly.  One thing I like about these, is that if you make to the final table, it's usually in about 2 hrs or less.  At any rate, nice that for now, these are going well.  

I played a bunch of MTT's this past weekend, and I'm not going to look it up, but I bet in over 50% of them, I built fairly big stacks, but couldn't close the deal on any of them.  That's pretty frustrating.  I definitely thing my overall game tweaks I've done are improving my game.  

My biggest issue still remains the same....namely, I still haven't figured out how to win those key flips at the end, other than it seems to be best if you get it in behind!  

(and for you pervs out there...no, there is no 'the' there!)   Haha

This ought to be fun

Numbono is hosting his own invitional:

This ought to be fun.  I think I rebought in the Donkament 72 times once, may still be the record.  I see this easily getting cracked in this donkfest...esp with the cheap rebuy price!

45 man SNG's

I've had some decent success playing the $75 45 man SNG on FullTilt.  My ROI in this category is about 25%.  Problem is, I don't play a whole lot of them.  

I played another one last night, and finished 2nd.  I think I'll try and experiment, and see how I run.  Or maybe it's just something to get me past the fact that my MTT's have really sucked lately.

I mean, I've been going through this phase where I seem to build a nice stack, only to blow it late into the tournament.

Sound familiar?

(And no, I'm not refering to blowing my stack with the Hammer the other day in the Mookie!)

Going Deep in the 32K

Finished 12th....again knocking on the door.  I felt overall pretty good, I am making some minor tweaks, and I think they are paying off.  I will play the Sunday 750K today, and see if I can improve on my previous showings.
