O-M-G

You would think it would be hard to top last weekend but I just did today and the weekend ain't over yet. :)

Last night went to this cardroom my buddies have been going to to play a $500 freeroll with $240 for first place against only 20x runners. Actually ran into Pat and Bruce and got taken out with QQ vs Bruce's KK in the first level. It's ok though because Kristina got off early so I was able to bum rush back home. Went to bed early and tried to discuss the game as little as possible becuase Kristina was annoyed that I had gone in the first place.

So anyways I wake up early this morning and it doesn't start well. I play 3 games: an 8.70 turbo token two table, a 4.40 token sng, and a 4.40 turbo satellite sing; none of which I did anything in.

Then I enter a $12 single table token sng where the winner gets a $75 token. I win that one. Then soon after I'm looking at my options to use it and impulsively enter a turbo 6 max sng that satellited into a 90K guarantee tourney with a $322 buyin. I run like God and take that down and immediately cash the tourney dollars.

But I still want to get into the FTOPS main event tomorrow. My first cash in it was last August for over a grand and I'm running really hot now so the timing is ripe. I took a break to cook the pot roast and put in the slowcooker for Kristina, showered and then hopped back online. Entered a $5.50 turbo rebuy sng that satellites into the main event for whoever wins it, 2-7 get some cash. I rebought immediately which nobody else at my table did and then added on after the rebuy period and that was it.

AND I TOOK THAT SUCKA DOWN!!!!!!!

I thought I ran hot in the 6 max for the $322 but oh no. Check this hugggeee hand down the stretch before the money:
