I"ve also bagged a seat for the warm up. (DS sats FTW!!)
I think you"ve found a bankroll builder there Louis. Try a few more $10 rebuys

Small sample - though I do seem to run good in these ...
I will try one more DS - but going to chill out this evening keeping any further tournament dollars for future weeks.

Honeybadg:
RT -$1,591 (+T$215)
AA vs QQ ... obvious Queen ... yawn ... smile ...
On a "brighter" note - Spurs 0 Celtic 2 coming up to half time.
Not convinced that Celtic are going to be any great shakes this year.
Spurs looking terrible at the back.

Honeybadg:
RT -$1,043
213rd in the Sunday Warm Up ... $559 back ... ran out of cards and lost a race KQ vs 77 ...
Pretty decent record in the Sunday Warm Up though not been able to turn it into a big win.
Next time ...
In the APAT - lost KK vs A5 - standard ..

wd on the cash Louis.
From my "experience" once the money bubble bursts, it gets very difficult to keep up. You seemed to be stealing/restealing about once every orbit, but your stack was still below average and sinking. The flurry of exits means you need to get to (and win) showdowns to go deep in this. That KQ v 77 was a great spot for you. Such a shame you were 2 outered on the river.

Would have made it back to 80k - still struggling ... still alive ...
Previous exits in the money JJ vs 99, 99 vs Q4 and 99 vs AA
Really hard to deal with trash cards in these phases.
It was interesting to watch the different approaches, "lilholdem954" (previous massive winner), pushed everything and blew up 171st, but seemed to take the view that fold equity plus a likely 35% chance at showdown was enough for any two cards.
I think at the margin I like staying alive too much ... though as per the above got my money in good or ran into aces before this race ...
Yesterday I got way below average - which is not good.
I tihnk you could skim just below average and still do well if you get a couple of hands late(r) on.
Was in 86th whilst in the money in one of the above (trying to play tight) ... just one showdown win away from the dizzy heights when ability to steal and pick people off ...
Summary - next out I will look to get a little more aggressive a little earlier ... and no doubt run into Aces ...
Cheers for thoughts.
Louis
