Hihi lovies! So sorry about the ridiculous lack of updates. I have been super busy and super focused on poker. I really haven't been playing live much. Tbh, I really hate it because its so slow but it is much easier though. I've played a few Venetian DS for 550s and one 330. I was bad beated or super coolered in all of them. I played the Venetian 2k because of the structure and I wanted to play a bigger buyin event before WSOP ME.

I really thought the field was sick soft actually despite a bunch of internet players being there. I was crippled super early on getting in QQ aipf vs 1010 for 60ish bbs each. I tried to pick up good spots from there but was card dead for most of the tourney. I ended up busting the last hand of the night (yik wtf rigged.) but at least I didn't have to bother with day 2. It was a very close spot live actually. It was the only time I've gotten in as a dog all tournament. Online it was an easy jambo but I think bc its live....I could fold.

Online has been going pretty well. I think I'm going to start playing the 1ks which I'm very excited about! Umm let's see for June I've had some pretty solidish results. Disappointing because I haven't closed anything which is what is really important to me.

3rd in the 100r on Stars
6th or 7th (don't remember?) in the 109 2x chance Stars
8th in 109 turbo on Stars
3rd in the UB 50r
7th in the 100 cube the Sunday before on FTP 6m
5th in the UB 10k gtd

A whole bunch of other FT bubbles...blah and finally 7th in the Stars 2nd Chance. I was pretty stoked about the way I played the entire MTT. The hand I got knocked out on 7 were left I was 2nd in chips and it was an awful bad beat...but tbh, I'm not even super upset about it. I just realize that all I can do is play well and shake off bad beats when they happen in mtts. I think that's a really important mindset that most people do not have when it comes to poker.

Tournies have been a funny thing in my life. I absolutely love them and think I have an edge in anything I play now. The lifestyle is a bit brutal. I literally have not been out partying with my friends at all this WSOP except in May. I have been super focused on poker and hope to start putting up really solid results live as well. I talked to my friend Jason (NovaSky) last night and he's really encouraging me to play higher online such as the 1ks and more of the 100rs. I'm very excited about playing the 1k on Stars tonight. Anyway, that's about it for now....I can't wait to play the ME.

Until next time, xoxo glgl babes!
