    I've enjoyed a nice heater lately despite relatively few first places. Near misses include KK<66 aipf when HU to win a £1K gtd Bounty Hunter that had started with over 300 entrants, the villain caught his two-outer on the river.

    So it was pleasing to take down this £350 gtd Bounty Hunter today. MTT win #181, BH #109.

    The moral of the story in this one was to keep your cool and not blast off your stack when the cards don't seem to be falling your way. I didn't win any all-in situations from behind on my way to victory, but I lost a couple when ahead. This pot didn't go my way in the mid-stages;

    It's easy to lose your cool and start flinging chips around recklessly after hands like these. But while you've still got a stack you've still got a chance. I just stayed calm, continued to play to the best of my ability and came up trumps.

    After making a big fold with AK after a K-high flop to a tight opponents river shove with over half my stack in the middle I spent much of my time at the final table as the short-stack ninja, hovering in the 10-15BB range. My run-good came when I got folds when light and made big holds when ahead and called to move to the top of the leader-board for the first time with four left. Final hand was an AK over KT aipf hold with stacks almost level :)

    UKOPS side event binkage, £1,000 gtd. re-buy, £6.20 invested.

    First time I've ever won a tournament featured in the Tournament Results Thread. I rarely play in any of them because evening tournaments are incompatible with my work hours. I only made an exception for this one because it was a turbo event that started at 7-00pm. Even so it finished just 2.5 hours before I had to get up for work, so I haven't had much sleep.

    I ran really well in the late stages. About three big flips went my way and I had to make some big holds, including my pocket TT against K8o aipf in the final hand. With maybe three or four tables left I got super-lucky when I open-jammed my short stack from MP with QJ. I'm satisfied I made the correct play in the circumstances, however I managed to run into poshcole's pocket AA. I luck-boxed a big double-up by making a full-house on the xQQxJ run-out.

    MTT #182

    thank you, i try to remain modest in these factual posts by keeping the word count moderate.

    i am helped in this exacting task by being a mathematician, and thereby more than happy to merely recant the facts in this thread. i don't find it necessary to resort to a lurid spiel involving the unnecessary inference that winning should be in any way correlated with one's ability.
