Whoop-de-freakin-do (1/13 & 26/422)

I won a PL Hold'em super sat to FTOPS #3. Whoopie:




It doesn't even come close to a real victory because only 13 people played. Still, I think this is one of my few satellite wins ever that were not token related. I had about 10K in chips when the rest of the table had an average of 2K. I still for the life of me can't win a seat to FTOPS #1. Maybe it's a sign that I should not be playing.

I also went deep in a 9K guaranteed and finished 26th out of 422:



I was card dead for the last hour of this thing and with high blinds and antes couldn't wait much longer. Player to my right had flopped a boat while holding Aces in the previous hand and when I raised with TT UTG and he shoved from the BB. I smelled a rat and called, he had AK and flopped an Ace to send me home:



The combination of card death as well as the fact the the FTP TD is a fucking douche and kept all the big stacks at our table was getting to me. I mean seriously, down to 27 players and top 6 out of 8 stacks are on one table. How does that make any sense?

But the real tilt was from KajaWife. She IM's me to let me know she had another accident while driving KajaKid back from school. This time she drove too close to a standing car and knocked both their mirrors off. Sweet. Now we have to go get that fixed as well as get an estimate for a new hood because she let go of the brake while standing at a traffic light and rolled into a garbage truck. Damnit! That car is going to end up looking like a crumpled ball of aluminum foil.
