Western leaders love lecturing the world about democracy and human rights. But when it’s France jailing opposition leaders and banning them from elections, suddenly, the silence is deafening.

@Couldofbeen11 Taylor Swift is more of a man than you will ever be!

@hardestyle That’s the problem bro, you listen to that fucking Taylor Swift shit, you have turned into a weak pussy. You need to grow some balls again, so you can sit at the table and be a man.

That's all folks. I busted. There was an UTG raise then Utg+1 call. I'm in the LJ and raise AKo all in for 9 big blinds. Freaking small blind looks at his cards and calls. First to players fold. Small blind turns over AA!!! Fuck. Flop gives me a sweat of J106. But I brick out

We're in the dumps here on this trip. Rough last night. I'm down 1k for the trip. Should have a full day today to get out of it though. Any encouragement on here would be appreciated!

@Couldofbeen11 I was up big early on today then donked it all off. My buddy Anthony made day 2 in the Main Event tournament. Excited for him tomorrow.

@hardestyle What’s going on, you must have listening to some GnR today, you have some stacks

Haven't been in posting mood today, but we got in a 2/5 can game at noon. Up about $1.6k at moment. Hmmm.. Another tournament by in is only $1.1k

@DGraffenius Well, I started hemorrhaging chips. Only ended up winning $700 that session.

@hardestyle Dude u should do it, freeroll!!

We are officially struggling here. Now under 10 big blinds. We need help from a higher power right now.... Taylor Swift, help me!!!

We are now past dinner. I've been chipping up slowly. Now have 30 big blind. There are a lot of good players at table now who seem to be traveling across country playing these tourneys. They don't mind putting money in the pot. After they bust out I see them buying in again

@Couldofbeen11 Dan didn't play today, he may tomorrow. Bob is doing well. His chip stack is 3x mine

@hardestyle How’s Dan and the other guy doing

Just had my AK lose to K2 when turn came a 2. Then now just had A8 lose to A6 when he flopped two pair. I kept both pots pretty small though so still sitting with 70 big blinds

Damn it. Just had A7cc. Flop is A86. Turn 7. I put a guy alk in for his last 50k and he calls with AJ. River is a fucking 8 which counterfeits my two pair. I could of had an extra 120k in my stack. Oh well, I still have 46 big blinds. 50 minutes until dinner break

Broke over 200k mark. I raised KJcc from CO & BTN calls. Flop comes Q108dd. He bet 1/3 pot, I call. Turn 5d. I ✔️, he ✔️. River 9 giving me a straight. I bet $35k into 50k pot. And he calls. I show and he mucks. I win!!

At 2nd break. Just had a guy try to bluff me on river. He just didn't know that I do not fold so I win a $140k pot. After the break I will have 85 big blinds. More than comfortable enough. Guy on my left won MSPT in East Chicago last Nov. Guy on his left finished 3rd. Uhg

Update.. @ 83 big blinds, which is still starting stack. I've been quite aggressive. I planned on doing that more this tourney. I've upped my 3 betting. I've been protecting my big blind more. It's a roller coaster, but I feel this strategy gives a better chance to build a stack

@DGraffenius Thank you sir. That's the way I feel too. Back to starting stack, but still feeling good.

@hardestyle Way to not go broke though, definitely a go broke setup hand!

Just took a big hit. I call an UTG raise with 109s. Flop is J1010. I ✔️, call. Turn Q. I ✔️ then call his bet. River is a perfect 9 for the boat. I bet out tiny bet. He raises a big chunky size. I just call and he turns over Q10 for a bigger boat. We are down to 120 big blinds

After first break I am sitting on 111 big blinds. Just over starting stack. There have been I think 3 players bust out at my table already

OMG.. Right before break I raise 44 in early position. 3 of us check to river. Board is 665AA. I bluff half pot and get called. I proudly turn over my 44 and guy folds!!!! I was only playing the board. All he needed was a card over a 5 to beat me. Whew, let's go!!!

For those is you not to familiar with how poker tournament go (aka Jill), when I get under 20 big blind, it's about the time when it get critical. Having said that, I could bust out of tourney at any time. Theoretically of course because that's not going to happen to me.
