Well I played a few mtts today and made it to the final table of the turbo fiddy and the 17.5k guaranteed tourney. got 6th in both for 1.5k each. 6th place is so gay cuz its super close, but still faaaarrrrr away. After my first FT, i went surfing with some friends. Came home, smoked, ate, FT'd another tourney. not a bad day

final tabled the $33 rebuy 6/230 for 1k, and final tabled the $30 rebuy omaha tourney 4/98 for 1k. The omaha tourney is so + ev its ridiculous. My ROI for this one tourney is over 300%. I make the final table about 3/4 of the time I play. Basically, if I am still around when there are four tables left, then I'll make the final table. Haven't been grinding much bc im just playing what i want and what makes me happy

I randomly played the turbo fiddy on full tilt. 1/419 for 5.3k. Had to get lucky in a lot of spots, won some flips. Really didn't do anything spectacular til we got down to about 6 handed where my short game sng skills really helped me dominate the table. When it got down to heads up, I was really confident i was gonna win even though i had a 3 to 5 chip disadvantage...Here are the hands heads up
