Three, most definately is, the magic number.
After my $13k upswing a few weeks ago, a little disgruntled I didn’t come 1st in any of those tournaments, it was back to the grind. Just the usual limits; $11, 26, 75 freeze outs, $3, 5, 8,10 and 22 rebuys with a few shots here and there.
I was quite happy here, grinding away, when I got a comment on my facebook from an old school friend who thought it appropriate to say: “Hey Jamie, just wondering, I see a lot of your statuses coming close to big scores, but no wins? Do you ever actually win any tournaments? Good to speak to you.” WTF!? WHAT A RIDIC RUBDOWN!? I was steaming. I’d made a decent chunk in the last 120 days, and get rubbed down for not winning anything. Well, it sent me on a bit of a tear. The day after this incident (Sunday) I came 1/236 in a $26 HORSE mtt, where I came back from being short 6 handed with no showdowns against some very passive players. Then last night I scooped the $20 rebuys on Full Tilt, whilst at the same time taking down an $8 PLO mtt.
Three tournaments, three different game types, 3 ships.
Take that anonymous Facebook friend! Right, just a quick (brag) post today, better get back to the grind.
P.S. Me and Ash Mason have a $150 prop bet on who can win the first ML 7-game mtt, with a limit of 20 attempts each, then a new bet will be made (to make it a fair test). Wish me luck!
