More FTs and a MTT win

Well, I can't complain about my recent run at MTTs.

Yesterday I participated in Pokernyhedernes €3 tour with 6 seats to the weekly final on Sunday (where I last week finished 4th) .

Well, I got to the table at the first break - only blinded down from 2000 chips to app. 1500. Over the course of 3 hands I manage to climb to the top spot with 9500 chips - well, got a little help from KK and AA (last one 3 way AI - and they held up).

Then cruised to the FT until I ended up HU after I managed to convince myself that 22 was a great calling hand - not the best play - but as it went - it held up against A10off. Started HU with a significant chip disadvantage and got lucky more than once. Climbed back to even and then we ended AI when my 66 hit a 6 on the board - and then my first victory in some time in a MTT was sealed.

Finals up-date

Well, sometimes you just need to whine a bit before the poker gods hear you (well almost).

As I wrote the other day, today Wednesday was dedicated to Qual Finals with to very nice prices. One with a spot on Team Ace VIII and the other a trip to Paradise Poker Tour (PPT) in London. I did well in both of them - finishing 3rd and 5th - so even though I didn't get a prize I was happy about my patience during the games.

Did som questionable plays that I have to go through and correct - I am working on my leaks - but overall it went well.

I also got to participate in a $15.000 freeroll and I finished in the top 100 which is always good in these big tourneys.

I have also qualified for a new PPT final on Sunday - so I hope that this will be the time that I get my hands on the trip :)

During the last couple of session I have done some experimental cash game playing at some NL100 tables and it has gone remarkably well - I am up over 2 buyins. Obvious I need to adjust a lot - played a hand where I flopped the nuts really bad - but my mindset was in the tours and that cost me a lot of dividend on the hand.

But I will hopefully learn.
