Thought I'd start afresh on a new page even though I haven't left the building. It is a new event after all.
This one looks like it'll be played fast, at least in the early stages. It's a one day event, I start with 10k and we're already on 100/400/800. Bodies everywhere already. Seems like a shove fest but we can cope with that.

Fast and furious indeed.
I just doubled up with KK. Wrong tournament!
This event has 170 players and they are already down to 80. Buckle up.
This event is certainly crash bang wallop.
72 left and it's shove city. I just lost 4k with QQ when I was probably supposed to lose all of it. Still in the hunt.
Now 63/170 left. It's any two cards and let's shove according to most people.I'm probably back to starting stack.

Still a bloodbath. 52 left and I'm on 13k. Average is 33k. That's what happens when you turn up late.
41 left and 18 get paid. I haven't got a stack to work with (sound familiar?) so it's down to hands.
I found a hand and decided I had to gamble. Aces. 3 way action. This is the result:
24k now at 300/1000/2000. 32 left.
Now down to 28 so only 10 off the money. My stack won't get me there so here we go again.

I just shoved blind and quite literally talked everyone into folding for next to no chips. I amaze myself sometimes.
6 off the money. Heeeeeelp!!!!!
The table novice just got KK in vs QQ and lost a 100k pot when a queen rivered, leaving him with about 15k. He's throwing up in his seat. The next hand when I get KK and he's clearly tilting his lid off I shove like, 6k and he folds his big blind at 1200/2400. I guess he had a read on me.

I run it up to 13k and find JJ and run into KK. No miracles. Bust 3 off the money in 21st. Good game, good luck everyone, etc. what else is there to say.
Happy with how I'm playing, but need more early chips to open up the gears. Bought in for tomorrow's $200 already, so rest of the day off.
