62k 600/1200 next.

Table pretty tough now. Oop to vaggro Argentinian Ivan Luca seems like he's v good.

Went down to 40 up to 80 (KK vs AK aip) then peeled 3bet oop AK and lost 3 streets on K high raggy flushing board vs 45hh.

Lost with 97 vs JT on 99K3Qr then lost about 20 small pots vs Argentina. He's a right pain, does the exact opposite of what you want him to do in every spot. Haven't seen someone dominate a table like this in a very long time.

I have a bowl left, 27k last level of the day. 1600bb

Urgh, 23k for day two. 1/2k going back.

Wish I'd lubed up, feeling very sore right now.

So Argentina just put me in a coffin on the river three times.

The first one I raise btn 67s, he defends bb. 964 he check calls. A check check, river 5 he bets 1.2x pot. I wish I'd called this one but this was the first one so let it go. He shows

Second one I raise btn KQ, he defends bb. A66 check check, K turn check check, 8 river, he checks i bet 1bb, he jams for 40bbs effective. He never has it but I can't call obviously. So annoying, I know I'm getting exploited to shit, but what am I supposed to do. Will check back in future!

Third one I raise TT he calls, bb calls, K75 all diamonds, I have , everyone checks, 7x bb checks I check again, he bets half pot. bb folds I call. river so i make flush, I check he sets me in for just over pot again. FFS! Feel this one was the most likely one he had it. He actually reps some hands in this one. Folded. He shows . But he really didn't wanna show the other one, and felt he had it this time, feel like he mightve had or even , maybe?!

All of those pots I only lost like 10bbs in total. But these were the only pots all day where I felt out of my league. So they are the ones sticking in the memory.

Was really comfortable and confident all day until this guy starting wrecking everyones lives lol.

Anyway, still in it, so let's try and spin up.

no.

he's had shit loads of cashes in the last few months live though. he literally won about 45/50 pots in the last two levels on our table, and it was a tough table too with Jonathan Little, David Vamplew, Dom Nitsche there too, but everyone just bent over and took it. Never seen anything like it.

11.5 Bigs?

Comfort Zone +, that.

You'll be fine.

[cambridgealex]

Restarting now. Got here early to unbag and stack up all my chips.

I feel like an early treble up is on the cards!

[cambridgealex]

Bust literally first hand. Raise and two callers, have AQ in bb with 11bbs, loving life. Raiser folds, first caller has AK gg.

Thanks for the investment and support guys. Gutted not to have done better but played as best as I could. Calling any of those river shoves would've been super optimistic and looked so stupid if I was wrong. Apart from that, I felt totally in my comfort zone all the time and was really happy with the decision to play.
