Tourney Frenzy
I will post what I remember of my little turney frenzy here as I played 8 MTTs over the last 4 hours. 3 money finished including 1 win. The games covered limit holdem, NLH, limit O8, PLO8, Razz, and PL HA. Only made one mistake forgetting which table was which. During this time I also made 4 books for my kids and their friend. So it was a pretty productive few hours
The only "mistake" was trying to play Razz. It took way to much time and was generally annoying.
Nearly placed in both of the Daily Doubles. My KK got crushed by A2 when he rivered a wheel 20 from the money in "B".
Jesse made $18.93 off me, as we exchanged 10% of the tourneys we were in together. Of course the only tourney he moneys in is the one I forgot to join.

Playing Friday Night...finally
I haven't played in...forever online. I've played a few times live in the past few weeks, but haven't had the time to grind out a tourney online. School has been quite hectic recently, but this weekend I'm going to be home so my slacker time I can hopefully devote to poker...We'll see how it goes.

Here's an Example How Easy Star's WSOP Steps
Im playing Step 3....
And I like these better at night, but decided to fire one of during the day.
Blinds are 100-200, I have a 1200 stack in the BB.
I call a min raise with QT suited. Flop comes Txx and I fire all in 800 into a 900 pot. I get instally called by A7 off....no pair ace high. This is also btw on the bubble 6 handed....5 places stay in the system.
Here is the HH:
PokerStars Game #16590512289: Tournament #84019400, $75+$7 Hold'em No Limit - Level VI (100/200) - 2008/04/08 - 21:30:20 (ET)
Table '84019400 1' 9-max Seat #3 is the button
Seat 2: gun of a sun (3280 in chips)
Seat 3: echolswt (2445 in chips)
Seat 4: le_pepere (2960 in chips)
Seat 5: CardDealer40 (1200 in chips)
Seat 7: Jas0nKiiiiM (1475 in chips)
Seat 8: Boykee (2140 in chips)
le_pepere: posts small blind 100
CardDealer40: posts big blind 200
*** HOLE CARDS ***
Dealt to CardDealer40 [Qs Ts]
Jas0nKiiiiM: folds
Boykee: raises 200 to 400
gun of a sun: folds
echolswt: folds
le_pepere: folds
CardDealer40: calls 200
*** FLOP *** [Th 3s 6h]
CardDealer40: bets 800 and is all-in
Boykee: calls 800
*** TURN *** [Th 3s 6h] [Ad]
*** RIVER *** [Th 3s 6h Ad] [Jh]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
CardDealer40: shows [Qs Ts] (a pair of Tens)
Boykee: shows [Ac 7s] (a pair of Aces)
Boykee collected 2500 from pot
*** SUMMARY ***
Total pot 2500 | Rake 0
Board [Th 3s 6h Ad Jh]
Seat 2: gun of a sun folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 3: echolswt (button) folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 4: le_pepere (small blind) folded before Flop
Seat 5: CardDealer40 (big blind) showed [Qs Ts] and lost with a pair of Tens
Seat 7: Jas0nKiiiiM folded before Flop (didn't bet)
Seat 8: Boykee showed [Ac 7s] and won (2500) with a pair of Aces
No my question for all of you is this: What the fuck could he have put me on that I would bet all my chips roughly the size of the pot, that ace high could be good there.....and not even a good ace high. And for 1/2 his stack.

Online Poker Screen Names
We have noticed users requesting online poker screen names and as well anticipated users wanting to know who is who during our private tournaments, so we created a Poker Screen Name Directory.
To list your screen names go to your "My Account" section. Here you can list your poker screen names. If you want them to be private just click the private option next to the specific name.
We linked the Private Tournaments Page to the Screen Name Directory and Online Poker Room Reviews Page since they all are not in the header and are "harder" to find.
Enjoy!

Thoughts on hand?
Blinds 40-80
Player A stack = 3450
PLayer B stack = 2000
Folds to player A in SB and he limps. Player B makes it 240. Player A raises to 720. Player B shoves for 1280 more and Player A quickly calls with 22. Player B had AJ.
How well does Player A play this pot? Only info I had as I watched this hand is that it is a big buy-in tourney and that Player B had not gotten out of line.
Who Player A is isn't important, but I am curious because Player A berated player B after the hand...and I thought the 22 was played a lot worse than Player B who was the aggressor on the all in. Just curious.

Yet Another Re-Focus
Alright. It's time to refocus. Recently I have not been having the results that I hope to have. Part of this is a function of putting in a smaller volume. However, I have also lacked motivation, had a busy schedule of classes and homework, and yes, I have even been relatively unlucky (I've vented enough about this already).
But, no more excuses. I still may struggle getting in the volume I would like to but it's time to get the train back on the track.
I have a new, refocused plan with several goals. I think that as I try to stay aggressive on bubbles and in late stages of tournaments, I have gotten a little reckless/sloppy. I don't think I have developed the right feel for these spots quite yet, but continued experience will help. In the mean time, I just need to focus more in the stages leading up to the bubble so that I have more information on my opponents to help make better decisions.
Goals:
1) Take better notes on players through out the tournament.
2) Stick to $1 and $2 MTTs. Both so that I can get a better grip on my game again, and because I have cashed out some funds and my online roll is a little smaller now.
3) Don't think about the money or my finish, just try to make the best play at every stage.
4) Make a couple final tables in the near future. It's been a looong time.
Many of my goals are based on relatively simple aspects of the game, but I think that when you are struggling that is the best thing to get back to.
