Stoopid Sunday Tournaments

November 17, 2008

As usual, I was all excited about the Sunday tournaments yesterday. I always seem to build up big stacks but fizzle out shortly after getting into the money. Oh well. I guess it beats not making the money. I have made it into the money in the last 8 to 10 big Sunday tournaments on Stars that I have played. Eventually I will break through and win one of these things. I did manage to get 7th in a Sunday Warm-up about a month ago. If I could just win some hands in the late stages when I have people dominated with their Ax hands..

I tried to play some PLO yesterday while I was playing the tournaments but that didn't go so well. I dropped about 4 buy-ins in 82 hands so I stopped and had some shots of Patron. After I got coolered in my final hand of the Full Tilt FTOPS Main Event (T9 < KK) I drank some more. I woke up with the worst hangover I have had in years. I don't even remember what happened shortly after the tournament. I just work up on the couch feeling horrible. I just got to where I can function. No mas tekillya!

I am starting coaching today with Rob Eckstut. He is BobboFitos on 2+2. He is a highly respected player and coach. I was kind of reluctant to start getting coaching at No Limit Hold'em since I am doing so well in PLO but I think this opportunity will be good for me. I have to think of a hand example by 7PM tonight and I really don't want to think about anything at all.
