Finally a win, and my 24 hour marathon BAP.

Long time no write because I didn't care to write about the nasty beats that I have been taking. My month long BAP turned into a Month and a half long BAP because I was down at the end of the month. We planed on playing it for 14 more days or until profit was hit. I proceeded to get tortured on the tables and going into the last day I was down close to $300. I hit the tables and managed a min cash in a tourney on PS before I finally hit a FT and won a tourney.

It was a $2.25 180 man on FTP, I got to the FT sitting really low and was sitting 8/8 when I hit my card rush. In 2 hands I moved from being in last to holding a nice chip lead. With me sitting 1/7 I doubled up a shortie when he hit an Ace on the river, but I kept my head in the game and continued to grind it out. When we got down to 4 play because really tight, and there was a lot of raise and win the pot hands. We finally got to 3 handed and I busted 3rd place out when we got our chips in the middle with me holding 99 and him holding K9, he didn't improve and we were HU. Heads-up play was a little slow to start but it picked up quickly. With me sitting on 60k chips and the other guy with 205k I get dealt K8o, the blinds were 2k/4k and I limped into the pot. The flop came Kd5s7s, the other guy min-raises (which he had been doing alot of on flops) so I raised into him making it 20k. He just flat called me. The turn was my bingo card, the 8h, he checks to me and I push it in the middle, he calls and flips over 3s2s for a flush draw. He didn't catch on the river and I scoop up a 129k pot. It's a new ball game now.

A few hands later I get dealt 99 in the BB. The other player limps into me for 2.5k and I raise to 20k, he pushes his stack of 157k into the middle and I call with my 100k stack. He flips over AhTh and he doesn't catch and I take over the chip lead and all by cripple my opponent. A few hands later I get 99 again this time in the SB, I raise it up 20k and he shoves his remaining 50k into the pot and I call him. He flips over 4h2h and he doesn't catch and I take the win.




This really made me feel great and get some trust back into my game. And it proved to me that being patient and choosing your time to make your move does work and that my instincts are right most of the time.

Well that is enough for now, I hope to be writing about more of these wins here in the near future.

For anyone interested, check out my 24 hour marathon BAP, this should be a fun one.
