Tales of the Honeybadger
Honeybadg:
Is this the Saturday Night Special?
I-Poker $50k - $100+9 just running.
Racing Post (Pacific Poker?) $50k - $75+5 starting at 8.35pm.
Slow start in the I-Poker event ...

Honeybadg:
Break 1 : I-Poker $50k g"tee.
194th of 310 - 50 paid.
Racing Post $50k : Looking like a decent overlay :
Backdrop - Watching The Last King of Scotland.
Honeybadg:
I-Poker ran out of cards ... 178th ... KQ push into A6.
Racing Post - Break 1 : 118th of 400 : 73 paid.
Break 2 - 186th of 281 - not finding much to play with - very slow structure.
Break 3 - 148th of 182 left - needing a double up - everything I fold would have hit and so on.
Dead! 165th ... poor play in the end ... annoying ... chances to push with better cards ... chances to call with better cards ... weak limpy trash ... and out with a wimper ... not what was required on the end of a poor run of late beats.
RT - $1,525
When I come to review the year - there have been tournaments like this one where weakness/passivity in the middle of the tournament cost me the chance for "glory" - annoying.
Of course the time you make the call with TT in the face of two raises you end up vs AK and QQ and lose ... and not AQ and 77 and win ... but the best advice on any of these hands is work out where you think you are and make the right call/push.
Ability to fold hands can be a weakness ... very tough when the marginal hands are biting both ways.
