FTOPS

With the FTOPS winding down, I decided to put in some real time online. On Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I played all day. Without having any major success, I was able to have a very good 3 days. I was able to manage a bunch of small cashes in bigger events including the FTOPS 2500 and the FTOPS main. I final tabled the UB 500 as well as a $10 event. I also made the deepest run in the Sunday Million I have ever made. I was knocked out 22nd. The structure was so fast at that point that catching cards became very important. I won a massive pot with QQ vs AJ to put me in the chiplead for a second. One orbit later I ran KK into a medium stack and 1010 the board was xxxx10. I managed to build my stack up a bit to 3M with blinds at 65K/130K. I found Q3o in the SB and the BB had 1M. It seemed like a no brainer push with the blinds so high. The BB found Q7o and held. I ended up getting it all in with KQ vs JJ for over 4M, but lost the fake flip.
Congrats to Cody who was on fire pulling in a 2nd and a 10th in FTOP events. Also congrats to Eric who officially regained 1st place in the Cardplayer POY race with a 3rd in LA yesterday. I will be heading to LA this weekend for the Legends main event and maybe a baseball game. If anyone is looking for someone else to cheer for may I suggest Eric Baldwin who if victorious will have to sport a lovely molester moustache for the remainder of the year.
