Up and Down
A brief update on last night - I was out of the Loose Cannon league event at the halfway stage. I shoved on the turn with 2.5k into a 3k pot with with the board showing Ah10dQs8d. Sonny unfortunately had the made straight and my flush redraw didn’t get there.
The cash game looked to be heading for disaster at one point. The Baron made a hero call in a £450 pot with a pair of sixes, after I had shoved my last £120 in the dark on the turn (I had open ended straight draw and a flush draw, but ended up with the monster that is 9 high). Things fortunately improved, and from being in the hole for £400 at one point, I ended up £100 down for the session.
I’ve had a change of plan for tonight - I want to be fresh for the Gutshot Main Event on Saturday so I’m giving the Omaha a miss. Saturday is going to be a long slog, and I don’t think another night of light sleep will lead to a good performance.
Next update will be the Main Event.
