Message: [QUOTE="Evan Jarvis, post: 5263187, member: 374519"] Hey Friends! I've got some good news, some bad news, and some ugly news. Let's start with the badder stuff and move to the good :) [B]The bad news:[/B] is I busted out of the Main Event Late on day 2 (20 minutes left of level 10) running TT into AA vs a player who I had an aggressive dynamic wtih [B]The ugly news:[/B] is that the way I played the hand (4-betting and calling a jam preflop, as opposed to flat calling the 3-bet and playing postflop) was a result of fatigue and exhaustion. I had only gotten 3 hours of sleep the night before as my housemate came home late the night before, and with the adrenaline running from the excitement of playing the Main Event I couldn't get back to sleep. This led to me having to really channel everything to stay sharp all day, which I was able to do 95% of the way building my stack up to 150k from 90k prior to making this play in a spot that it was 'fine' but still unnecessarily high variance. [B]The Good News:[/B] The 10% Main Event Giveaway is still on until the 17th. There will be 10 winners who will each get $100. You Can [URL="http://gripsed.com/wsop-giveaway"]Enter it Here[/URL] Best of luck! [B]The Good News x2:[/B] This trip to the world series has inspired me to do some reflections articles to discuss more about how to navigate the WSOP. With the bigger fields, more events, and more hype in general the landscape has changed and requires even more planning, discipline, and self protection to stay sharp. [B]The Good News x3: [/B]This thread was incredibly helpful, and reading it every day got me in a great state of mind. You are all so awesome and helped me believe in myself and my abilities so much more. I think in future tournaments I'd like to do something similar to this as it was a lot of fun and just brought so much positive energy to me. I'm sure everyone who wrote a comment feels the same, as it feels good to write and read nice things. So, THANK YOU SO MUCH! For all the support, all the love, all the positive wishes. This is what the World Series is all about, bringing people together ;) Now let's enjoy the rest of the show and see if any of our friends can become multimillionaires as a result of this glorious festival :) #LetsGetStackin [/QUOTE]
