Got back to nottingham about 5 days ago, been playing tournaments the last 3, and just getting very frustrated at moment. Not while I am playing just afterwards when I bust out. I feel I'm playing strong enough that a good cash will come, then I can play slightly higher buy ins, but at moment its just a big grind.
To be fair though I am not playing a great deal of tournaments currently, my usual schedule is the doubles which are very cheap, ($10) and a $26 Double Stack. I have gone deep alot in the doubles but I need to get top 2 really or somehow muster up a double Ft or best average cash to make some reasonable money, then the double stacks I like my chances but just not getting rub of the green late on.
Just now for instance, im about 50 off cashing, i'm sitting sound with 17,600 bb is 800 I think, a 7k shoves from ep, button calls and I find AK off in the bb, I reshove it. He dwells for ages, making it obvious he has AQs or JJ or something and calls with 10-10, and I lose. But thats not a huge hand to be honest, just giving you the picture that I am not going broke with silly hands you know. If I lose my entire stack its with a premium hand or a situation where I am in good shape. But eh, thats poker. I just gotta roll with it. When I am more into the routine again of playing more , I ll play more then 3 mtts a day, but I don't want to rush it just yet. Cos I am not one of them high volume multitablers.eh.
On another note, I played some Omaha hilo cash games today and made about $80 which was fun. I just thought I'd see how the games were since I know the no limit games like nl $100 and nl$200 are pretty robotic and prolly less to be made there unless I was to play alot. Also, played on my friends account the other day on crypto network playin nl $500 and Pl omaha $200 and made him about $360.
Anyway, I think I am going to play a little bit of hi lo again, then have some shisha and put a film on. I ll be in better cheer tommorow and make another run for a FT online. If there is one thing that I am happy about is that I have learnt to play serious the last few months playing the cheap mtts, often last year I would play like the sunday million and not give a sh1t.
Ok, take care.
