Went deep in a lot of my tournaments today but not deep enough to make a significant amount of money. I’d like to say I played well and ran fairly good today, surprised I didn’t make any final tables. My flopped set ratio was unsually high today and got me some nice stacks in the mid levels. Today was the first day I’ve ever accomplished a nice finish in the $20k Heads-up tournament which goes above my expectation since I’m not too confident in my heads-up game. I did catch a good run of cards pretty much the whole tournament so I’m sure that was a big factor in making it that deep. Taking 4th place money in that tournament covered a lot of my losses today and came out on top by a “peanut”, so no complaining here. I’ve made the professional-like decision to not go out and have a few drinks tonight, in which I usually do on Saturday nights, I plan to rest up early and be mentally prepared for the Sunday majors tomorrow. If you follow my weekly progress, you would know I never run good in Sunday majors, but I have a good feeling about tomorrow and plan to make some deep finishes. Wish me luck!
