Micro Millions Half way...

Although the timing for lots of these events isn't quite suitable for players in Asia, I'm trying to play as many events as I can, so started with event 1 which was scheduled for midnight CCT time, I was quite tired that day so I went to bed 2 hours before the event and set up an alarm..

Event 1 attracted a huge field given the extremely small buyin and it was as PS named a rebuy madness 6max event, Pokerstars team online pro Jorj95 and Bryan Huang quickly grinded a big stack and so did I, from the starting 50 chips, I ended the rebuy period with 7000ish and this is how I finished overall:


My next 2 cashes would be in event 25 $1 and 39 $8.8, with respectively, 2 deep runs:

Mid March, Medium March!


I’m no stranger to the grind, not only poker wise but in life in general, therefore I know for a fact that nothing comes easy unless you fight for it and put to use every single fiber in your body trying to reach your goals.
We’re half way into the month and it hasn’t been the best nor the worst month of poker, I’m slightly down on my ROI% but hopefully things will start taking a better turn the 2nd half…
I’ve been very deep in a dozen of tourneys recently but no final tables due to unfortunate coolers and bad beats but nevertheless, I’m very excited about the Micro Millions series starting in 2 days, been playing a lot of satellites, mostly hyper-turbos 6 max and I really hope for a good run during the entire series, fingers crossed.
On the other hand, I was quite pumped up to hear about the China Poker Carnival with 1 million RMB GTD (Around $160K USD), but unfortunately, the main event is a an invitation only tourney and I wasn’t able to get my hands on a ticket…well that’s a bummer, I will post during the weekend for an update about how I’m doing in the Micro Millions series, until then, may the poker gods shine on you and I.

Poker gods turning their backs...

I'm sure there are tons of poker players who will relate to this post but I'm so blown away by how bad I'm running, I'm sort of speechless and experience some creative numbness and brain freeze but not the fun kind of way so I will get back to this a little later...

I'm back and still trying to put the words together, maybe some hands will speak better:

This hand happened in a $.55 tourney that had ~!260 entrants and we were down to the last 19..
