yeah so I threw up like 5-6 $4 SNGs, but then something happened and I was running insanely well.
there were a lot of fun hands, this one is the highlight of the night.
neilly was in my SNG and I saw him earlier with like 1000 chips or something when the bb was like 150. and here he comes back and has position on me with 10k.
then: http://www.liquidpoker.net/h/590102
this is so fucking sick. he had almost like 12:1 to call with his remaining stack, and had to fold.
i asked him what he had in a pm after linking him the hand (i promised him in chat) and he told me he had + Show Spoiler +
. this is my only hand with neilly, and he went on to bust pretty soon after.
note: I hate playing with neilly oop
random pot committed call with terrible hand, just cause I have so many chips:

and the guy who waits ten years before shoving with AK calls me a donk
this hand skyrocketed me to #1, pretty much guarenteed me the FT:

I c/rai pretty confidently with my combo draw, and he fucking snaps it off and I see I'm in deep shit. but I'm running good tonight.

I squeezed the original raiser who had like 33 pfr and had been min opening in lp the last couple of hands. the cold caller is like 44 vpip. this is a great time to pick up a lot of dead money with a squeeze, and unfortunately I run into a hand
I get berated by almost everyone here for snapping off J6s, but unfortunately I was committed by my squeeze and ran into an actual hand.
things fell apart shortly after that but I find in a lot of my SNGs now I am a more consistent finisher getting pretty far, even though i do not have that one sick score or multiple decent scores yet. I feel I'm improving a lot in my MTT/SNG game and I'm willing to 3 bet light and squeeze light, even though it did not work out for me THAT hand I feel I would do it if given the opportunity again just because of the villains.
I also played NL10 today only on 4 tables, and practiced taking more observations on my opponents and trying to open up my 3 bet range in order to improve my game. I run into a few coolers and lose two buy-ins but whatever, I do feel my game has improved even though my profits cannot reflect that.
I have only one more exam before I am done (this Friday) and after I get done with it, I'm going to really focus on my poker game. I feel I've opened up my game considerably just by a few minor tweaks talking with my friend allen and edzwoo who I just met I think a day or two ago?
Fuck the money, it's about the game
p.s. any other no limit micro grinders want to talk about hands over AIM or whatever?
PM me if you are willing to help me out or even want help because I believe I can help out too, or just if you want to have another person to discuss with. just send a PM with your AIM and I'll reply with mine. I'd like to get someone who is good at MTTs as I'm trying really hard to improve my game in those, and would like more opinions.
afk studying about the eyeball. peace out LP
p.p.s. WTF THE LP HOODIE SHIPPING COSTS $32???!?!?!?!
