We sneaked into the money with 8bbs. Then instant heater with two double ups, went from 64 to 380 in 15 minutes. Then lost one, currently got 235k, returning to 10k bb. 120 left.

Soft 10/20 reminds me of a Blonde legend!
Good Luck in the tourney Alex.
I should definitely have said softER. The game certainly isn’t objectively soft. What was the story with blatch’s soft 5/10 at the Venetian? Bigging up the games to get a stake? |

Yes I was just coming onto the scene when all this happened. I didn't know the Vegas staking thread was alongside the BoB. Didn't somebody think to suggest playing 2/5 instead of selling 50% for 5/10  Rats were being smelt at this time surely... At least everyone got paid in the end. |

So our 64k spin continued all the way up to 1.6m and we finished on 1.365m with 52 left and $17k locked. Returning to 20k bb. Average is about 1m. Awesome day! Buzzing! Ran so well. Very slow structure, 5 90min levels per day. Scheduled for 6 days. My flight home is on day 6 though  https://www.pokernews.com/tours/wynn-poker/2023-wynn-millions/3-500-main-event/| Click to see full-size image. |

Amazing comeback after being the lowest stack when the bubble burst. The portents are good  |

Keep it up. You look a lot more like the Alex from DTD there than you do on the live streams. How deliberate is the image thing in cash games? |

Blatch still lives with/near his parents I believe. Still see his name on the cricket boards in the summer months |

Marky discretely doesn't admit to Blatch paying him back his very modest investment when he smelt a rat and blatch sent him his money to keeo the scam going. Marky admitted this to me just before the shit hit the fan.. He was the only real winner not to get paid back via Blatchs mum when the shit hit the fan. Marky is a luck box or a proper judge or both!!!!

I didn't want to derail the thread He was waiting on Keys & someone else (Eames?) investing £10k, so I got weighed in before I went to Vegas for the summer. I posted in one of the threads when it all went sideways that I was the only one who made any money from it, and offered to send it to whoever was holding to carve up. Think it was £200 or £300 profit he said my investment had made, lol. |
