SUNDAY IS $UNDAY

As usual, all the big games come out on Sunday so this is how I failed... erm I mean faired tonight.

SUNDAY WARM-UP 750K GTEED$215 4,068 Entrants
Was going extrmely well with double the average stack just before the 2nd break... then found my nemesis... no not KK... a race!! Lost half of stack with AKs v QQ. One of those races is going to make me a fortune one day. No way out of it.
From that point on it was just a frustrating run of waiting for my opportunity. Very frustrating to raise up with 88, get a reraiser after which I would have called. But then a re-raiser after that made me fold. Flop 88f5 and I would have taken out AA if not for the intermediate raiser for a massive pot.
Nothing else happened and with blinds going bananas had to push with A6o... straight into AK. Open-ended on flop gave me hope but alas no.
487th from 4,068 for $407.

IPOKER 250K GTEED $330 799 Entrants
Close to 2 hours and just nothing happened to get excited about. Really nothing to say yet. A Royal flush helped to get a fairly average stack early on then very little to report for almost 3 hours.

Finally my patience is rewarded and I limp utg with AA. 2nd place puts in a small raise. I put in a further small raise and he pushes. Yeee Haaaaa. What has this tool taken me on with this time???? AA !!! FFS

Bided my time and after an early raiser I push with AK. Once again get a caller with shit - 77 - and once again it holds. I see some shit all around me and never get it in with crap. But can't win a race against tbh some diabolical calls. What he put me on to make the call? 22?

Finished 200th from 799.

LADDIES 70K GTEED $110r 346 Entrants
After the rebuy period and found myself with close to double the average chipstack. KK held in rebuy period which helped.
Then the inevitable.
What a complete and utter joke!!!

CRYPTO 35k GTEED £120 269 Runners

Nothing at all happened for the first hour and I found myself fairly short with 2300 chips. On the SB with AKs and a raise from middle is called from the button. I of course push and the 1st raiser instacalls with clearly no thought whatsoever about the player behind... with 66!! Yes it holds and I am on life support. Complete PLANK call.

Oops Crypto means I have the history... and its still an idiotic call and just doesn't deserve to hold.

Didn't recover and my 79 on 79x flop was not enough to beat open-ended straight draw. No real complaints, nothing happened.

Finished 193 from 269. POOR!

SUMMARY
Overall, didn't put a foot wrong all night. 2 races with AK v low pairs crippled me in 2 games. One race with 77 v AQ knocked me out of another. Lasted longer than 3,500 runners on Stars. And two absolutely appalling beats saw me out of Laddies when the hands holding would have put me in prime shape for the FT and maybe the win.

All I can say is when this luck changes, it is going to be BIG. Real BIG!!
