Tales of the Honeybadger
Honeybadg:
... getting a bit loose in the early afternoon ... a pretty soft loss of $111.
I think this is the type of leakage that dents profits ... you try things at the wrong times ... but fire an extra and pointless bullet into a made hand ... mmm
RT +$561
Honeybadg:
... super Poker Sunday about to begin with $32 + 3 re-buy to qualify for $300+20 seat in the I-Poker $250k.
$56 of cash profits this morning despite a seeminglessly stream of straights and flushes against me.
Bit hungover which is usually a good sign ...
RT + $617
May try to double up with Betfair"s new $80k??
They also have a new $22k with a $20+2 buy in.
Honeybadg:
... qualification secured in the $250k on I-Poker for $196 (Buy in $300+20)
Betfair $80k ... no such luck ... flopped set dies to a flopped flush ...
7pm kick off (RT +$330 plus any returns).
Watching Liverpool ... I have money on Man U for league and Champions League on Betfair ... perhaps time to adjust my position!?
Honeybadg:
... what a tedious ending to the weekend"s poker ... early position raise with A3 suited ... I push with AK ... he calls and hits a full house of threes and tens. 270th ish of 822 ... 100 paid ... so lots still to do but with few cards would have settled to double up and start gunning from a little below an average chip stack.
Golf bets -$36 ... RT +$294.
Hard to suggest a cure for such tournament endings ... better than QQ vs AK (standard).
The humour of a Goosen win (if he makes it) ... pretty dry ... having backed him last week.
Honeybadg:
Late night poker!
Just waded through 5.5 hours of qualifier for the Brighton Main Event (over Easter weekend) ... $100+10 buy in.
27 runners for 2 * $1,000 packages and one $700 consolation.
In the end I took the consolation ... after about an hour with the three of us left ... and Ladbrokes seemingly unable to do a deal ... for three times $900 packages ... maybe they cannot do deals ... who knows ...
Anyway -$26 cash ... so +$565 on the day ...
RT back to +$859 ... which is respectable with both the World Amateur events paid for ...
I think I will use this cash to attack the Brighton festival.
Plans for Vegas also a foot ...
I lucked out with AQ vs KK ... straight on the river ... but otherwise played well ... and would have likely had a main prize but for losing AQ vs AT.
One of the winners also allowed a short stack to come back from 540 chips to 25,000 by betting me out of a pot ... GENIUS!
Feel quite sharp tonight which is pleasing ... amazing what dishing out a bad beat can do for you.
