Well after all that lot and only being up since 10pm there was no way I was going to sleep. Ladbrokes being a bit short on mtt participation at 5am i decided to try and win 50$ playing turb stt's - bankroll was 250 so thought i'd buy in to the breakfast club when I hit 300 - struggled for ages - got up to 285 but gave up when I went down to 235. lol.
Thought that there must me more to life than turbo stt's so I opened pokerstars and entered a 20$ freezout with 513 runners. Also entered a 20$ one on Mansion with 126 runners. AS per usual on there over half the runners were out after the first hour but with only ten paid I wasn't over confident of making the money - despite being about 18/50 just after the break. Made it though and ended up 4th for 158$ and a entry to any 100$ tourney on there.
As for stars - started well and got into the money no problem - was a bit low though - about 67/90
Things got worse and i was 52/52 but kept stealing blinds and luckily my all in steals with marginal hands weren't called - also won a couple of races but with 22 I was about 19th. Got to the final table third in chips but quickly lost some when QQ lost to KK and thought I was going out in ninth the next hand but whatever it was I had - tens maybe held up and I was back. One guy with a huge stack kept sucking out and down to 4 I was slightly ahead of the other two. Made it to second but had no chance - 6 to 1 out chipped but very happy with 2nd place for $1.385.11 - some of which will go to pay back my mystery staker and 140 to the cancer charity from the game I missed last night - i'm not especially generous but i'm a poker player so they caught me at the right time.
Celebrating the win now then going to sleep before the wsop league tonight - my turn to get some points this week.
Just trying to complete a hat trick of early morning ft's (bought into the Brakfast club) but with 30 left and me needing a quick double its not looking good.
