After taking last Monday off I seemed to play pretty well on Tues, Wed, and Friday. Made the final table of the 27.50 on Stars on Wed. Had a huge stack, got 4 handed, lost 88 to AQ bvb for a monster CL 3 handed, then I just couldn't get anything going, every time I tried to 3b, I'd get 4 bet shoved, every time I raised I'd get 3b, which is fine if I had ever had anything... I ended up stacking off top pair to bottom set for a very disappointing 4th place.
Friday had a couple of deep runs that ended in a flurry, which tends to happen a lot
Took Saturday off in hopes of being ready to go yesterday... Yesterday was the biggest POS day ever. I was getting owned. Losing flips, having guys hit sets vs my over pair, etc etc... I know it happens, but when it happens that much that fast, it's hard to take, I don't care who you are. So I was running bad decided to stop registering at 5pm et and play stuff out.
Then all of a sudden I won 2 huge flips in the MiniFTOPS then had a big stack. Granted there was still 1k people left, but seeing 250k in chips was a nice thing at that point. So I am one tabling that sucker, then run bad rears its god damn head again. AQss < ATo button vs SB all in pre for 100k, then I managed to pick up AA in the SB, and hj 3b shoves initial raiser for his last 80k with KQhh. Flop KKx, turn Q, river x NO PROBLEM!!! Then I lose a 180k chip race with 66 vs AK HJ to SB. It's amazing how fast a great run can come to a screeching halt. If only I had won the AA hand I would have taken 1-2 in that sequence... Needless to say I need to make a run to Best Buy today and buy a new optical mouse I shattered that shit.
Moral of the story, I hate Howard Lederer.
