blonde poker forum

Hi guys,

Going to Vegas on 21st June for the series, and will be playing the $10k Main Event.

Looking to sell 40% of my action innitally, at a rate of 1.4

For people who don't know me, my name is Mitch Johnson, and i have been playing poker full time for around 4 years, primarily live cash games from £1/£2 - £5/£10, and in the last couple of years, played the UK tourney circuit and been travelling round Europe value hunting with Team Eureka mainly in events from £300 -£1500+.

This will be my 5th Trip to Vegas, and 2nd to play the WSOP, busting late into day 3 last year, just short of the money.

Although i haven't put the volume in playing thousands of on line MTTs, I more experience than most in the live environment, and I am very comfortable at the table. As most people will vouch, this is one of the softest comps of the year, with lots of qualifiers, lots of scared money and a high proportion of very inexperienced players, all of which i feel i am in a good postion to take advantage of.

Plenty of people can vouch for my trustworthiness etc on Blonde, and at DTD where I play most nights.

Quick TR from me from the main.

Starting table in this tournament was terrible. One chinese guy to my left who was kinda tight, but ok, and one older guy who was also very tight but had terrible bet sizing, the rest were all very good, and most of them seemed to know each other from online/ circuit/ EPT's.

Level  started terribly. UTG opens, a caller before me and i peel  7d 7h, good aggro french guy squeezes the button and we all call. flop  Th 7c 5d gets checked through. Sometimes would lead here myself but chose not to. Turn comes a  6c and UTG fires for like 80% pot, i call, others fold, river  3s and he bets biggish again, im not loving it but at this point didnt know if he was over vauling a hand like  Js Jh or had turned smaller set etc, so made the call to be shown  Td Tc , so down to 20k v early on.

Table from here just got mental, lots of 3/4/cold 5 betting, but not massivley spewy stuff, they were playing pretty well (although it was pre antes)

Played pretty tight, couple of times i opened mid pairs and was blasted off pre by 3/4 bets so was just waiting to find the right hand in the middle of the crossfire.

Managed to get a double back to near starting, opened  Ts Th utg playing 40bb, tight chinese buy to my right 3bet for the first time in a while, and i was pretty much just gonna fold it, then utg +2 peels and i now have decentish odds to peel. Get a  Qc Tc 2h flop, check, OR bets, oither guy calls, i shove it in, get snapped off by aces and do a win. Things looking up, felt like a fresh start.

The guy on my right has been opening v.wide, and has the lot, mostly thanks to 5 betting  6c 6d and flopping set vs  Ahrt Ad in level 2. He opens the CO, and i decide the 3bet with  Ad 3d from the button, he peels.

Flop  Ac Js 9d checks through, turn  3c, he check raises me quite big, and im loving life, just call for the tarp. river  6h and he barrels, i call and he shows  9c 9h . obv. Back down to 14k on the dinner break.

The next hand comes up which at the time i was v unsure about, but spoke to others and they agree with how i played it.

Good player opens in MP at 150/300/25a to 725, playing about 70k, other good young guy peels from 25k and we have  Ac Ks in BB and make it 2400 to go, both peel.

Flop  Ad Qs Jd and we have about pot behind, lead for 2350 and OR mins it back. PUKE. wasnt sure at the time if id put too much in, or maybe i should C/r All i on flop, but decided he just as to have me beat, and folded to leave myself 30bb. Think this is pretty bad play from, him here, unless hes abso soul crushed me with  Aspades Th for eg, but i dont think hes peeling this pre. never mind.

Anyway few hands later, im on the button and 3b all in over CO steal, with  7s 7h he calls with  Aspades Qh and rivers the  Ad to finish me off.

Very frustrating tournament, never got going, felt a little hard done by with the table draw but thats just how it goes sometimes, if id have picked a few hands up in beter spots i could have come off that table with a nice stack, but it wasnt to be.

Thanks for everyone who bought pieces off blonde, hopefully one of the Team can get the job done

Cheers.

Unlucky mate. Sounded pretty brutal :-(

Very much brutal, ul, next year I'm sure - WP
