Cash Or Tournament?

If a picture can tell a thousand words:

The red line shows my tournament results for the last year or so and the blue line is the cash game  results. Just to really hammer it home I played cash last night for the first time since March and dusted my buy in within about 30 mins.
I,ve been pretty disciplined in giving the cash tables a swerve, I,ll just put last night down as a minor wobble.

Incidentally the screenshot above is from the profit tracker software I use on the ipad. I mentioned it in a previous post but I,ve had to take it down as it seems to attract spam bots and I,ve been getting inundated with spam comments on the post.

Running good with the ladies.

When you go deep in a tournament you,ll have used your get out of jail card at some point along the way. Last nights great escape was..exactly that.

I entered the £30 bountyhunter tournament and I went on a heater right from the kick off. I flopped quads v a set for an early double up and never really looking back.

The Great Escape

• Its late in the tournament, blinds are 6000/3000.
• Table is 7 handed.
• I,m on the button.
• No one has put money in the pot yet until it gets to the Villain who min raises to 12k.
• My hand is pocket queens.
• I reraise to 25k.
• Everyone else bails out except for the Villain who calls.

 Flop comes J,8,7.

• Villain checks.
•  I bet again
• Villain calls.

Turn card comes another 8. 

• I bet again 
• The villain shoves all in for not alot more. 

• I snap call the bet and he flips over 8 9 offsuit. Bollocks!
• ...but alas for the Villain, I now have the pokergods looking over me.
• A bit of divine intervention and the river card is another queen.
• My full house sends him packing.

I go on to take the bounty hunter tournament down and bag another 10 bounties on the way for a £100 bonus on top. Oh its nice to be running good...
