Unlucky Stu. Still a great start: only one bullet; got it in good; a cash.

Next!

To quote Fred Couples: “ooh baby”

In my own words: Let’s go!

Great stuff Stu & thanks for the updates

3% please Stu

I don’t understand why they don’t simply shoot at the tyres to ensure the vehicle doesn’t get too far. It also gives the cop the satisfaction of discharging his firearm without killing anybody. Then, if the alleged criminal decides to do a runner, they have a car to impound, and not a great deal more legwork to apprehend the perp for an interview. But I suppose this assumes that the cops are trained properly, and/or they have a modicum of intelligence.

Never really truly got going. 21k at 500BB, five handed

UTG, raise to 1.2k, UTG1 3bets to 3.2k

All in, call. He has

The race that we've had twice in other tournaments, but this one brings no drama



Into the Stud/Omaha hilo we go

Bad luck mate. Good luck in the next one

+1

I’m pretty sure you’ll enjoy the Stud/Omaha Hilo a lot more - and have a far bigger edge in a tournament that plays more to your strengths. Never been a fan of Shootouts.

That’s right. Check-raise gives you a far tougher decision on that river. Extremely hard to fold 2nd nuts….

Fantastic job in the Main, Stu

Rest & regroup for a run in the Shortdeck tomorrow!

You’ve been here before on this rollercoaster, Stu

My target tonight was to see you into the last 300, so I’m heading for bed but expecting to have a couple of pages of updates to catch up with in the morning

Good luck!

[(which I do and dont recommend unless you love flying, its tough)]

People always laugh at me when I say this but given prices at the moment, I'd be factoring in a couple of nights in Dublin either side of a Vegas trip nowadays.

Yes you won't save much unless you're willing to go UK-DUB-STOP-LAS on the same day (which I do and dont recommend unless you love flying, its tough) but at least the £300 you'd save on the flight you get to spend on beer and food and having a good time rather than the UK Govt and Woolly Jumper's pocket.

Plus if your 1 stop is somewhere like Dallas, LA, San Fran or Denver (or anywhere in the US rather than Heathrow/Amsterdam) you get to go through US Security at Dublin before you board and just walk off the plane at the other end.

On the other hand, sometimes its just worth it to fly direct. Especially with BA where you dont land til 8pm in the evening at Vegas and as such, the time difference isnt as bad.

And I would recommend that you make sure there’s at least 3 hours’ connection time in Dublin to avoid heart palpitations - or worse!

You’ve put in a cracking performance Stu. You’ve locked $37.5k

21bb is huge. Remember all those eons ago when you were nursing 6bb to get past the bubble? Do what you do to wind down, then get yourself to bed. This has been a fantastic ride on the rail already.

Great work Stu. Set myself the target of seeing you through to the last 1000 before heading to bed.

You were long overdue some luck, and that AQ hand couldn’t have been more perfectly timed or well deserved.

Gogogo!

Let’s f’kin go!

Top grinding Stu. Well done sir

WSOP site reports that a guy had 16 of his 19k stack in the BB/Ante - And got a walk! What the hell?
