busted the 50k, lost a 90k pot at 300/600nl (150k starting chips) so that hurt a bit. Hopefully future tourneys will go better. I made a ton of bets, and winning a bracelet would definitely be my biggest winning day ever at this point- so u can extrapolate from there.

3.25 to 1 london counts, 3-1 it counts only as a chop (if i win there i dont lose but i dont win). I got nitted by eli and oppy… and only fair to give everyone the same lines. i hav 70% stack in 50k

i’m taking the following bets:
3.25-1 on getting a bracelet this year, london counts
2-1 on getting 2 bracelets in 3years, london counts as a chop (if i win 2+ in vegas i win, if i win 8 in london 0/1 in vegas we wash)
me vs ivey getting 2-1, london counts, if we both win a bracelet its a wash (even if i win 8 and he wins 1 its a wash or vice versa)
me vs negreanu getting 2-1, london counts, if we both win a bracelet its a wash (even if i win 8 and he wins 1 its a wash or vice versa)
most cashes at wsop (with or without london) vs anyone of your choosing i get 1.3-1
if you wanna bet 5k+ and will escrow (or have someone i trust enough to vouch) message me on 2p2 and we can bet.
I’ll look before the 50k starts, and book bets then, if we bet after the 50k i’ll need 3.6-1 or some other solution (could play a bellagio prelim w/ similar # of people etc) for the 1year bet, and 2.1-1 for 2 in 3years.
If theres any crazy need for arbitration (harrah’s closes wsop after 12 events etc) all bets will be settled at the same rate as the 2-3 biggest bets i have (which in most fields will probably be with ivey/negreanu etc)

Tom recently filmed some new Full Tilt Poker commercials and they came out so well I had to give you a sneak peek.

Been awake a while, and played a ton in the last 3 days. I had a pretty awful week of poker before that, where i lost about $1.9m- mainly to ziigmund, but in the last week i’ve managed to recoup those losses. I’d like to think that the losses had a good amount to do with some bad luck, but i know the wins definitely had to do with good luck. I played ilari at 500/1k where we had to raise and reraise every hand- so before any option the small blind makes it 3k, and the big blind makes it 9k. This is obviously a retardedly huge game, and both of us should probably be playing at least a little bit smaller. I managed to win about 800k at 3/9 tho- so it worked out this time. Today i played another long session of mainly mixed games, including some very interesting hands (mainly in no limit and plo since limit games suck). One of the biggest hands of the day for me was a pretty large cooler vs. Patrik. He raised on the button, and i called with my moderate holding. I flopped an overpair and flush draw, and decided to check call instead of betting or check raising. I turned top set, for the 2nd nuts to go with a flush draw. I was planning on check raising the turn, but definitely could’ve changed my mind and check called to trap. Patrik checked behind however, but i got one of the 2 rivers patrik can’t get away from. If Patrik had KKT6 or something like that, i think he folds the river to my shove some smallish amount of the time. And i need to give Patrik credit- with a hand that should never fold he thought for about 1 minute b/c he was obviously extra worried he was beat. However its hard to fold when there’s literally only 2 combos i can have that beat him, and when i’m shoving T86 myself for value, along w/ tons of random T8/T3/83 combos, and maybe some bare 6s (the latter 2 as bluffs obviously.)
I don’t know if this hand will show up here, but i’ll post the raw hh just in case (and convert later). Too tired now to try to figure it out. This was a very hectic session for me, as i was playing 6-9 tables most of the time, with 1/2 or more of the games being mixed. I think its much harder to deal with 5 mixed tables than it is to deal with 10 plo or nl tables. Anyway it worked out well, and i won a few hundred k.
As I’ve noticed myself repeatedly dozing off midsentence, it seems clear this blog must come to an end.
Adios n stuff
