Tales of the Honeybadger
Honeybadg:
RT - $546
APAT 34th of 89 ... and a weak finish
KQ vs AJ (short stack)
K9 vs A8
Played good for two hours - raised everything - and took advantage.
Lost a 77 into xxx called by AK which spiked (small stack)
Lost a AK vs AT
Lost a KQ (two pairs) vs 4 to a flush - which I played slowly (could have folded the river) - my own fault.
This made my stack small and not enough patience from me to survive.
The epic balance between patience and aggression - and how to deal with having very few cards.
Overall - a decent position dented by beats - but killed by impatience - WEAK!

Honeybadg:
... I should add to last night ... enjoyed the battle with MattBlue and AMRN.
Matt on the table all night.
Steve arriving late to re-raise my raises - I should have re-stole - I think - next time!
First 100 hands - I played 55 and won 36 - which is pleasing.
Got to 4th place - then needed to slow down a bit but I seemed to have cooked the brakes.

Honeybadg:
RT -$669
Mmmm ... feeble attempt to qualify for the I-poker $1m ... broke one of my rules in playing a turbo qualifier (re-buy)
Re-focus : walk in sun - strawberry and white chocolate ice lolly.
Fired up a $70+7 qualifier ... so RT -$746 ... plus or mnius a ticket ... 10 min levels ... shuffle up and deal.

Honeybadg:
41st of 71 for 18 seats - 6 refunds and 1 consolation.
Lost momentum with AT vs JT defeat.
Nearly falling asleep ... not helped by Cardiff 0 Newcastle 1 ... zero skill.
I watched Crystal Palace vs Charlton last year (live) - dire.
Fulham vs Everton next up ... is this going to be any better?

Honeybadg:
RT -$569
Made the (minor) money of Event 26 of the WCOOP
Very slow structure - never in a great position - had a life with 5 outs twice early on.
Needed to find a good spot to gamble at the end.
How"s this ATs vs AA ... great!
If you could this as a Sunday Warm up substitute then 5 cashes from 10 ... this one slightly feeble (though governed by cards) ... others more live.
Might take a look at tomorrow"s card!
