Cody wins PokerStars Nightlyby Shannon Shorr | Published: Aug 10, '07 |
I did ok in the online tournaments last night. I finished 20th out of 450ish people in FTPs 55000 guaranteed and then I ran fairly deep in the FTOPS Horse, finishing out of the money in 150ish place with only 50 of the 1000+ players getting paid. Basically, I have to final table these online tournaments to be happy with the financial benefit of spending that much time playing. I am not too concerned about the money right now though. I am using these tournaments as a tool to refine my tournament game, and I really think it's working. As the kids say, "Decisions not results."
We ended up going out to Tao as a group last night. We originally entered the club with the rest of the general population, but we are such table whores that we eventually broke down and found a host to get us a table. It is much more expensive but it beats the hell out of maneuvering through the crowd and waiting 10 minutes to get a drink each time. We got to bed around 5 a.m. and woke up scary early at 11 a.m. again. More online tournaments today. FTOPS is a PLHE tonight which should be fun. I think I'll play under BLUFFforRENT again. There is no word yet if my friend and world's best PLHE player Dave Anderson will be in attendance.
