kings are rogged

2.5k hands today, +$530. Lost 6.5 buyins with pocket kings though, so it could be a lot better, lol.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2954463 - good thing i didn't run kings into aces when nearly 200BBs deep.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2954467 - my 4-bet size is lol bad here, probably meant to make it $35. Still get stacked here though.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2954474 - KK < AK all in pre

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2954478 - expert setmining from villain. sigh.

http://www.pokerhand.org/?2954481 - KK into AA AGAIN.

gg KK, gg.

maybe next year

So, WSOP satellites pretty much sucked. In the last one, i came ~70th out of ~900, with 50 packages available. Goddamnit. I picked up a big stack and I think i was the chip leader a couple of hours in, but from there I largely sat back, where i think i should've pushed a bit to pick up as many chips as i could.

Just finished a heads up session against a massive fish. Only 50nl, but took $330 off him in <200 hands. Pretty sweet. Still got a while to rebuild though after the WSOP fiasco.

Current aim is to have a 5 figure roll in time for september, when i'm doing the "going pro" thing.

From there, i will play cash during the week, take saturdays off, and grind donkaments on the sunday. In the next year, i also aim to play in PCA and WSOP main event minimum. Also want to play APPT Seoul and at least one EPT.

I also aim to write a book detailing the following year, so hopefully that'll get published and i'll get snapped up by stars or something cool. :)

You can also now access this blog from www.mixmastered.co.uk. Yes i was sad enough to buy my own domain name. Will prob get some web designer to make me a cool website at some point :)
