More games

At the moment Scandic Bookmakers run some Springtime freerolls. Mostly 1000 and 500$ freerolls, funny enough the times are for me 3pm(working) and 3am(sleeping) and they dare call thenselves Scandic? *lol* But anyway nice free money to play for and not that hard to get into, they dont fill.


Scandic Bookmakers

Another bad week almost over.

Not had much luck the last few days. the 4ooo$ tourney I ended 40th got 10 bucks. :( Lost with AA.

Today it then got worse. In the 1000$ tourney. 14 left. I sit on a 7th place at the time and I loose my full house to a full house. I never even saw the possibility. :(

Downs and Ups

Ok today started fairly poor. Played for the Forum Leagueteam Blind Bullies on Poker.com. This weekend is Omaha weekend, a game I really really DONT master. ;) well 2 SnGs with 10 people each time. Made 10th and 8th. lol talk about poor. ;)

Yesterday I tried the 40k and 50k on BetonBet. Did not do well in either, either. :(

After all this I went back to basics. Yes my tourneys, the 1000$ R/A on poker.com and made a stunning 2nd, adding another 250$ to the bankroll.
Wonder why I can never win that tourney. 2x2nd,3rd,4th and a 5th place. cant seem to get the last payout place. But hey, who am I to complain.

Bankroll so far. +676 $ not bad :)

40.000 $ Guaranteed...WOW

Yes thats right. At a buy in of 20$ you can play for 40k $

This is just awesome and with 1½ hour to start there are only 110 people in it. This one I just have to play.

If you want too, its played here.

Mind you its a Rebuy tourney, but still its an awesome offer.

They also have a 4.000 Guaranteed Rebuy tourney for 2$ buy in. This one is usually filled. 1000 people, but still a nice one.

Will let you know later how it went.

The Curse is OVER. :)

After I started with the Charity Tourney, thinking an Accolade would be cool and only 15 in it... I ended 11th after 57 hands, I won 3 Hands where everyone folded. :(

Monday I got me 80 bucks for the 5th place in the 1k Tourney, not bad considering I was last when hitting final table(10 ppl) and it only pays to top 5 :)

Today then completely broke last weeks curse. In the 500$ Short Handed Tourney, I was strugling all the way, allways lowstack but hang on and Finally I could collect 276$ for the FIRST place. ;)

Yeah Baby. I'm back. :D

The cursed week.

Ok this must be the worst week I ever had. Spend a lot of money getting nowhere. :( Got Donked at every Corner. If I had KK, someone had AA, if the other way around he hit another K or a straight.
I dont have space to post all the bad Beats, but here are 2 that springs to mind.

First was Sunday 1000$ only 12 people left, no 11 sits at the BB with 500 chips more than me, me being low stack at the time.
I get lucky and get a KK and I feel safe, BB guy too low to risk an all in....BUT...

Amazing defeat..

Ok today was one of the worst tournament days...Did not even make it to the break in the 1000$ even with 5 rebuys.
Here is the hands I lost on.

AK loose all in preflop to 67suit. he got flush
AQ loose to pocket 66 I had Q on flop, all in, he hit 6 on river.
AQ loose to AJ I had Q on flop, all in he gets a straight.
and the last one.
QQ loose to A2 all in preflop. He hits the 2 on flop and the A on turn.
Figured rebuys was a waste at this point.
EgonOlsen Out. :(

Amazing recovery..

Once again I made it to the money. Again the 1000$ Tourney, this time making 3rd getting 150$
When there was 20 people left with no rebuys left I had 527 chips, was forced all in on BB. Had 94 off. Someone went all in with 66, hit the 9 and won. From that off I went straight to the top.
Then Isaac bust my star. He was btw, the same person that put me on 527 chips after again beating my pockets with a higher pocket.

Here is the end play:
