exhausted going into day 2 of the O8. Not a fan of plauying till 3:30 because the 5pms never start on time, having to get back to the hotel, wind down befroe sleep etc and then restart at 2pm. Not having a 12 hr break is bullshit. Whats worse is for day 2 they say you play till 3am and if the ft isn’t reached u restart at 1pm.
sash looked to be struggling even more than I was, sleeping through his alarm and turning up half hour late.
I only lasted 65 miutes past the restart, but play seemed fairly standard. In review there’s not much I would do differently. At least I got a sweet anecdote to tell about Rob Hollink calling over a pokernews guy to bitch about how bad I was for raising on the river with the nut low and a nine high flush. It obv has to be bad cos we got quartered. Results oriented anlysis FTW. I gave him the benefit of the doubt last year when he sucked out on me hard with 3 tables left of the $10k LHE to leave me crippled and him with a chip lead he went on to win with, but these old live “pro” monkeys are tilting.
took a day off today, chilling, drinking, meeting a ton of new people so I’m fresh for tomorrow’s LHE shootout. Improving onlast year’s 6th would rock.
