Bulletfest

Last night, for the first time in over four months, I fired at least ten bullets in a single MTT-R NLHE. Here are my holdings the five times I hit the felt:

9c 9h
Th 9h
Ad Jd
4c 4s
8d 8s

Needless to say, that was far too many bullets. My blue distance has now ballooned to over 2 million. That's a mere bagatelle, though, considering that last year it ballooned to over 11 :-)

Last night, for the first time in over five months, I fired at least eight bullets in a single MTT-R NLHE. Here are my holdings the four times I hit the felt:

9d 9s
Kd Kh
Kc Td
Td Tc

On the final hand, I called all in. I was up against a player who'd been dealt Kc Ad, and was a 56.24% favorite to win. Alas, it wasn't meant to be. I finished a mile away from the money. Nevertheless, I have a feeling I'll be getting back into the blue before long :-)

Bulletfest

Last night, for just the fourteenth time in my career, I fired at least nine bullets during a single MTT-R NLHE. Such bulletfests rarely turn out well, and last night's was no exception. I finished just four spots out of the money, but would have needed more than a min cash to make a profit anyway. Here are my holdings the first three times I hit the felt:

4h 4c
9c 9h
Kd As

Not exactly chopped liver. My blue distance seems destined to top 7 million, but as long as my 2018 balance stays in the black, I don't care.

Bulletfest

Before Friday night's session, the most bullets I'd ever fired in a single tournament was 10, and the most bullets I'd ever fired in a single session was 16. I exceeded both of those records on Friday night, firing 12 bullets and 17 bullets, respectively. Although I didn't make a profit on the session, I was quite proud to have made a small profit on the second tournament, which was the one where I fired 12 bullets.
