Playing today online liveadream tourney and finnish championship of hu poker. Outlevel myself of first one and made a bad play. On headsup tourney second opponent bust me by river st8 when i had 2pairs.

But yesterday i finally got a decent score for sunday when i was 4th (again) and 109rebuy and won 34k which is sick good. When i opr last 40 opponent of tourney i was shock when all players had more then 50k profit this year expect 2 player. So i manage get very deep when againt very tought opponents which im proud of. But once and once again i realize my limits and weaknesses as a player and i have to work hard to get a even better results.Basically that means that i need time to do it which i dont have right now because this week i have to move all my stuff once place to other and i takes a lot time and energy . Even that im hungry to get study some stuff i have to be patient week or two.

15 tourneys and 6 cashes. 3 final tables and most i like plo 3rd place finish. Im not a good plo player but its a nice feeling to get deep in weird game. I was also 4th in 200e tourney. 4 left we all were like 100k-120k stacks. I had KT on sb and bb was 2k. I raised 5k and bb called. Flop Kxx i bet 7700 and he called. Turn T and i bet 22k because there was flushdraw on flop. He instanly called. River came 5 and all draw missed. I shoved allin and hoped a hero called from medium pair or K with no kicker. Well,i was wrong. I thoughted all draws missed but his 55 was good shape now,gg. On last ft i was 5th when after 6 left i was chipleader. I have a feeling i try to run over tables now and dont get any rispect at some point. I have to avoid light 4-bets even there is 1-2 shortstacks which bust soon. I have so many 3-4 place finished lately. I have no reason to train my hu game if i dont get there lol Still 4k today and up 8k this month so running good overall

My tournament is short story. After 2 levels i was chipleader. After that all u can imagine went wrong. When they made last hand of the day announcement every1 folded to me co and i had QTo and 11bb. I could pass and start next day with 8bb and wait few more hands. But thats not me so i shoved and sb called with AK. I didnt suck out so. Last 2 days i have spent time with family. Been at beach,trying to find some good restaurants(hard here???). Today we took a train to Lisbon and went to Zoo. I have been a several zoo before like Helsinki,Barcelona,Budapest,Edingburg etc but somehow i like this best. All the big animals and they had lot of space also. I also got a kiss from waterlion lol .Yesterday was a "Daddysday". I got a hand made present and card from daughter. Kindergarden nannys had asked questions from daughter and she had to tell a rest like " my father is nice because..?" They made this last year also. This year she know answer to question Dads profession.

Yesterday played 18 tourneys and 4 small cashes. Bust out almost everytime just before final table. But i won seat from Everest Grandslam satelite to Vienna 9-12 December which is nice. Leaving friday to Estoril,Portugal so there is now some live tournaments coming. Some needed change for online grinding :-)

Had a lot of fun with Heinola Mob this weekend. We made a pretty big bill for RandomEyes but im happy he finished 3th in 100k so get all the money back which he used to our suites,food and drinks :-) Had a terrible hangover yesterday so didnt really wanna play so i pass..

Today i played 11 tourneys and ended up 2400dollar. Sounds good but im really piss of. I was huge chipleader in 2 tourneys. First 1 i had 200k when next one had 60k and then was 18 players left. Winner got 7k. Then i double like everyone with sick setups and ended 6th when re-raise allin with ATs bb againt button raiser. I had no other option with 15bb and he had to call with AJ.

On the other tourney i was chipleader when final table started. Not huge cl but still. Winner got 10k. Well.. I took control of a table and i had 600k stack when 5 players left. Other stacks was 400k,150k,100k and 40k. Big blind was 5k. Guess who was next out? Yeah u guess right.. I got 2800 but not very happy. Better luck tomorrow..

Today over 10 tourneys and 2 small cashes. Best change was everests 11rebuy,finished 19th. co raise 5bb and i shove my A7o on button with 12bb. He was raising with big stack all the time insame raises pf and i was 100% sure my A7o is way ahead of his raising range. I knew he is always also calling. He called with T4 and hit a T on the river. But im happy i had patience to wait this time right spot to get money in and didnt shove my 10bb in light spots like i normally do. I think i find made right adjusments so i feel i had good change to find myself in final tables also in Everest.

Everest poker tournaments are absolutely easiest(most fishes) what i have been playing so i highly recommend it. You just try adjust you normal game little bit. Not light 3bets,open fold some mediocre hand with certain stacks like small pocketpairs. But you have to also make this valuebets agaisnt right player even with medium pair. This is my strategy in a future at everest,lets see if it work :-)

with ATo. He get broke hundreds of bbs only with top pair top kicker. Somehow that reminds me from ept barcelona when Patrick Bruel made awful call pf againts me and then was in trouble --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzYp4cMUYRU

I have now 299 tourneys this month and im up 25000 so im very happy to my results. I will play tomorrow and they i will rest rest of the week. I will get a key to the new house on wednesday so then i have to fix there some little things before we can move there and it takes some time.

On friday im going to Turku. There is a Heinola Mob Poker tournaments. Heinola Mob is group of players from my hometown Heinola. We saw together movie Rounders years ago and then started to play poker. Me and RandomEyes are playing pros and few other friend are making good profit also. We take 1-2 weekend each year and have fun drinking,going to sauna,playing etc. We made a bet last year with RandomEyes,who made more money last year have to pay all weekend. So Ty Voitto!

Today played 18 tourney mainly because of livethedream tourney. Normally i wouldnt play on mondays after weekends. So today 18 tourneys 5 cashes and 2 final tables. I came 4th and 8th in ft so didnt really get anything because pricepool are heavy to top3. Loses today approx 400 dollars.

I have so problems to adjust my game to these 11-50 dollar tourneys in Everest. In 109dollar there is some player which know how to play but in smaller ones is a lot of player dont have no clue. Or what your opion when they open limp 11bb button with AQs. My A9o on bb obv look like a nuts then heh. I just think every player is trying to slowplay everyhand in every position. I just should give them a respect little bit more. Overall i just love Everest tourneys. Like today when 2 chipleader plays agaisnt eachother.
I was something like this bb 30. There was raise 90 and then rr to 410 and flatcall,on flop Txx rr bet 1000,flatcaller rr to 5000,first one shove allin 14k and flatcaller insta-called

Didnt play mtts in 2 days,tried to learn hu game by playing hu stg:s and started good but also running like a god. My old friend from Heinola which have played 10k hu stg gave me some tips. I try to play 300-500 stg before end of this year. I think after that know someking of basic strategy which to use.

Today i played 14 tourneys (12 mtt and 2 livetourney satelite). I got deep in Stars warm up but busted with basically because of this http://www.pokerhand.org/?4820998 . I would of been 5/35 if won that and good chance to win 150k but not this time. But i won seat to Estoril to 1500€ tournament. I also was bubbleboy on other livetournament satelite. 9 seats 10th got 1400€ and 11 left. Button allin with 2bb and i have AJs on and 6bb(we all had less then 15bb). I had to call and he had J8s flop came Jxx and turn was sick 8. He double and i was shortstack now,so folded to me sb i shove K7o and big stack bb called with 83s and rivered a 8. But im however happy to get play at live again!

I looked he just try to scared me off. So i trust my instinct and shoved,tried to get him fold KQ,KJ type of hands. But he instacalled with AK and i looked stupiest people on earth lol. But this is what i love poker. You have to trust yourself and intuition and put your money in with mediocre hands also if you believe its good. I get back to 100k in chips but re-shove it with KJo vs KK.

I have now played 267 when my goal was 300. Im up 22,1k. My goal is to make best online month this year and i need to win 3k more.

Im afraid im not able to play as much i would like because i bought a new house and im moving there in next 2 week and i have lot of work with selling a old house,get a electric,water,post etc to new house. New house 2times bigger then old one so we have to buy some new stuff also. New house is basically middle of nowhere and i have to find out how i get there a fast internet if its even possible at all.

Cya,

Didnt win so much today,+2500 but what a sick itm i had 21 tourney and i cashed 8 times!!! 3 final table and all cash game basically from one 4th 3300 cash. MTT:s you really HAVE TO be in top3 to get big money and live yourself with tournament poker so u have to try to win em everytime. Well, i outlevel myself on that final table. I was secured 2th and there was 4th player with relative small stack. I was raising and raising. I open raise utg QTs to 11k and bb re-raised me to 38k. He is good player and capable of moves. So i decide to defense and called. Flop AQJ with flushdraw and in 0,000000001 sec he bet pot almost 75k and leave 100k behind. I tank i ofcourse realise that there is no folding equity at all. Bet came so quicly and bet size indicate for me that he wanna tell me he want to commit his chips to pot by making decion easier for him if i shove. Thats what i believe he tried to tell me by that bet. So i really thought that there is great change he dont have anything at all

After 1st day in EPT Warsaw EverestPro Voitto "RandomEyes" Rintala is in good stack after first day. And what i read from tourneyblog he bluffed big time a wsop champ Peter Eastgate. Isnt that what every1 wanna do,buff a champ?

There is a days when nothing go way you like. And then there is like 10 days a year when there things couldnt go better. Your good hands wins,you win big flips,when you lose a flip you are already monsterstack and it doesnt hurt you,your shoves get respect when it shouldnt and get called when you wish it. Today i got pretty close to that.

18 tourneys,4 final tables and twice i bubbled which sucks. Final tables i was 1th,4th and 7th. One of them we did 3 way chop. Each got 6k. Reason why i did a deal was that other tourney was on final table bubble and wanted consentrate on that one. And we also had all 13bb so it was close to lotto on that point so i think every1 was happy.2 other player was all winning players so there wouldnt be big edge either.

On that tourney where i got first i started ft as 5th biggest stack after i called loose players 11bb shove with AQo on ft bubble,98o obv hit. On final table they loud me run over them so i did. 14k ship it!! 20k total today :-)

Playing LiveADream tourney today,buyin 109. I had 12bb on button. I had A2o so its a +ev shove so i jam it. Same time a realize that utg had raised. He tought it for long time and called with 99 and i was out. 2-3 bb more i think he would of fold,at least he should of. And i wait that tourney whole day and they i play like a donkey,sighhhh....

Last part of GrandSlam series,there was a hand JJ vs AA which is pretty close call/fold. If i put him TT+,AK its a call and if QQ+.AK is a marginal fold. Well sometime people shove there light bluffs also so im fine with my call. We are not near satelite bubble yet so i have no reason to fold because of that also.

Almost winning sunday,2 pretty deep tourney but out before big money. -23dollar today so its better then avarage sunday :-)

3rd part of grandslam serie enjoy

Played yesterday 14 tournament. I tryied to play max 8 tourney at same time,when but one i registered to new one. I think i played better,there was so much situations where i didnt know what was action and what kind of player was raising etc. I got 2 final tables, 2rd and 3rd. Hu i got allin K7 vs 43o after i was raising pf and flop was 765 i bet and he called turn T and we get money in.
Other tourney i was safely going to hu but 4bet bluffed a chipleader to dry 522r board with QTo and he snap me with A3o. Turn was nice Q but river A. Totally i won 5600 dollar and im once again up this month.

I really feel i have to start play hu stg tourneys. I feel unconfortable everytime i start playing hu. My hu player yesterday was praying deal all the time. When playing 20-30bb stack its a lot of luck but i never learn play hu if im doing deals so i will play instead.

Today is also a work day,trying to do same as yesterday

Last part Everest 500k

Part 9 tomorrow i will post a last 1.

Played today 20 tourneys,3 cashes and 2 final tables. First hand ft i had kjo on button and 20bb stack,tought sb and bb fold a LOT but KK was too much to fold lol ATx flop gave me a gutshot but missed and was first to out. In second ft i was 3rd. Raised 33 sb and bb called,flop AJ5 i bet he call,turn 4 gave me gutshot,i bet small and he call. River J. Thought he have small A or maybe QJ with trips J now. I put him on test with allin bet but he tank and called with A7o. Won like 4k from that one. Totally up 3k from tourney,played 1/2 full ring a hour and won 3 buyins so that was nice. This is good for motivation after some losing period. Tomorrow i will play a lot of tourneys,tuesday is my favorite day.

-Mika

Part 8 enjoy

Played today 14 tournament and 1 cash 1k and down 2800. Pretty much same kind of sunday like is have been all year. Just have to work hard to get it back up...

Part 7 enjoy

Part 6 of everest 500k. Didnt play today. Maybe tomorrow..

Such a sick day,cant win a 70-30 "flip" at once. People make such a dumb calls and hit always. For example with 200/400 blinds+antes. Utg+limp and after that there is 5 callers. I have 6500 and QQ. Pot is big already so i go allin. Utg goes allin. I was like omg he limped with AA. But was suprised when he shows T7s. Ofcourse,there is no justice and im out.

20 tourney today,only 2 cashes and 1 final table (9th). Lost almost 1600 no good. 115 tourney this month and im down -1421. It feel sick.

Hi

Played totally 26 tournaments and not really my day. Sick beats,then didnt play my A+ game and those when i got in to money lost all the big coinflips. I think i tried bite a too big cake today,have to play less tables tomorrow. There was times when i had 18 tables at same times and didnt had a clue what was action preflop and folded KJs type of hand on button because of hurry etc,no good. 4 small cashes but no final tables. Lost 1,6k to tournaments,luckily made some money in cashgames.

I try to update next part of video tomorrow
