Massive tournie fishhhhhh
Played 4 tournies today and all 4 of them I've gone out in stupid ways by just push push push.
Very frustating that I can't keep the tilt under control, I realise what the problem is tho cos I was playing the tournies on their own and I was tired so from now on I'm having cash tables up beside them to keep me happy.
Disappointing cos I really need to take down the 5-00
But anyway who else is a fish and not ashamed to admit it?

In mtts, aggression is very important, but targeted aggression and picking the right spots is essential and a difficult skill to master. I am still learning and developing my game in this respect every tournie i play.
Have fun at the tables m8 and good luck.

Like on the deepie earlier with you I had 9k TWICE in the first 30 mins and still only last like 45 mins in it, all cos I got into various pots that I had no need to be in
I think I'm kiinda on tilt from a lot of semi-deep finishes in the big tournies recently...in the past 2/3 weeks I would say I;ve been in top 30 on the big Sky tournies 4/5 times plus a few other decent runs on other sites....cashes that are nice to have but not the ones that I crave and I feel like I'm forcing it along.
The most annoying thing is is that I'm not ignorant of the fact of what I'm doing is wrong; I'm aware of it and have actually spent 1000s£ over the years on tools to make me aware yet for some strange reason when the tournies are running and I've got K9 its as if its 6 years ago and I'm on the play money tables
On the rare occasion I play a tourney, I try to imagine someone like Greg Raymer or Alan Cunningham is sat behind me and I have to justify every play I make to them! I dunno, it might just help curb that impulsive play that you know deep down you shouldnt make!
All the best

being tired does not help.
and i am a bit of fish and don't mind admiting it.
:-)
Before I would get it all in PF with KJo vs KK and flop a straight
Yesterday I only flopped an open ended straight draw
I'm sorry Sky plz make me run good again, I won't cause any more trouble I promise.
Was a great cash tho for the BI £630 return on £11, so obviously pleased with the BR boost.
From about last 20 to final table I had a lot of good hands, as soon as it got to final table time tho the best 2 I had were A5hh and 66, the rest was total rubbish and tbh I only managed to make 3rd because I started the FT as one of the chip leaders.
Overall a nice cash and many thanks to Greg for railing
I think I'll use this thread to comment on my tournie placings now so will keep it updated for thos interested....
Well played tonight i saw some of the game but had my own problems going on at the tables ......
like a muppet i entered the 1000 freeroll at 7 00( doh)
I was also entered for the Open (9 00)and the 2k semi-final (10 00) ...
Now i dont multi table so at 8 55 i found myself chip leader, so i pulled out of the Open.
Anyway by 10 00 still chippie 107k, i though oh OK i'll play the semi as well (2 tables open) ...Disaster struck !!
The second table came up , i went to mini-tables and then ... got Disconnected .. and computer froze ?? What !!
Well 10 .25 i got back and went straight on tilt ......... two all in moves and went out of the freeroll
cashing for 6 quid (marvelous) Then went out of the 2k semi in 8th ..4 got a ticket ..
So the morel of the story is ....
I'm a muppet for playing the freeroll, just to have a game, when i had important games later in the evening !
well done tonight

I think that I could offer you multi-tabling lessons sir, am able to play 12 tables at once on other sites so kind of a pro
Will you be entering the 2k deepie tomorrow? I doubt any sats will run as they never do...but only 9 registered so far so the potential for some overlay there perhaps???
which i think is a big part of the game.
There should be 'Sit n Go's' 6 seaters going tomorrow, i'll see how things go through the day..
there will be around 20 runners by off time !!
Told you a decent result was round the corner! I am mystic greg
£22 to enter, a seat in tonighht's £110 Deepstack Showdown to the winner, runner-up gets their money back.
Any more for any more?
I would appreciate your thoughts guys and how would you have played it?
Cheers.
One awful, awful hand from me cost me cashing for min 440 and potential 1.1k for 1st.
So so stupid.
Oh well
You must be doing something right, your always there at the finish lately !!
Try playing one game at a time, concentrate on the strategy as the bubble approaches.
Remember this .."Timing is everything" !!
benny
I've got 300k chips, him 450k.
Run good one time plz cos its not about the money I just want to win a big tournie for once!!!
Oh and Greg where are you, I don't see you railing lol
Hopefully first of many.
Sorry i was not around to rail you at your moment of trimuph but i would have been if i knew.
Greg
I might go though the hand histories and post some interesting hands later, as I was near the chip lead basically since the start of the tournie and took my first massive hit final 12 which left me crippled.
instead you can have a screenshot of my amazing ROI BRAGGGGGGGG
