FTOPS started late last week, which I was excited about, considering I have never done well in any event. I played on Friday, Sunday, and Monday. Had some good runs, but never got a nice score. I was heads up for a small belt on FT. I had a nice 8 to 1 chip lead and couldnt close the door. I had him all in with: J2 vs AJ, 65 vs A9, 22 vs AK, AQ vs AJ, AK vs AQ and lost them all. I know I got it in bad a couple times, but the chances that I lose all the hands are about 2%. On Sunday I made the final two tables in the 150R and 75K grtd, but fizzled out before any real money. Monday saw me get to the final table of the 80K grtd, but I went out 8th for a small cash. I still think I am playing well and hope to put one of those FTOPS jerseys on my back.
I have been feeling a bit under the weather as of late, so my small workout program has gone to a no workout program. I hope to have the motivation to get back into it once I kick the cold.
Basic Facts
- Justin Young
- I am currently a poker player living in Las Vegas. If poker doesn't work out I will take a serious look into becoming a professional flipper. However, this may be more of a sweat than my current job. For now I am enjoying the profession - the cash games and tourneys. I certainly do not recommend this job for everyone as it is often a grind and, as my wife can atest to, when I have a bad day at work, it's a bad day in general. But I love the competition and I love the game. Gl to you.
