At no point have I had more than 13500 chips in the warm up and after 2.5 hours I've developed shortstack syndrome (can only consider shoving or folding and postflop play confuses me).

Hoping to make the money without at any point having double the starting stack. I believe this unlocks MTT godmode on Stars.

Plan did not work out.

Godmode next week

wow been card-dead and everytime I pick up a reasonable hand a nit 3-bet shoves over the top. Down to about an average stack now.

ul rex im still in my deepstack 213/650

well at least you 2 didnt suck sour pickles like i did

sigh, cardead and every marginal hand i played being outflopped turned my 16k avg stack into 4.6k in no time at all.

Shoved 33utg and bb called with 99. Out in 500/1750 250 from the money, huge waste of 4 hours

Decided to stop this experiment: https://www.cardschat.com/forum/poker-rooms-10/28-steps-big-sunday-tournaments-140617/

I ended up remembering why I stopped grinding SNGs to focus on ring games...

shit like this is why ive flipped off my computer monitor all day ...variance schmariance...hold the eff up already sorry im a whiney baby ...life in general just sucks atm
