The other evening freeroll (Hero Triumvirate $100 GTD MTT) is a great freeroll to play every night $50 goes to 1st, $30 goes to 2nd, and 3rd gets $20. The other free game I like to play (US residents are eligible) are the PLO Hero Arena 24 man $1 GTD and funsteps. I am really curious to see how everyone going for zero to Hero is doing.
    Great work! I don't play Hero or Carbon except for the PO Freerolls. It's not that I'm new to the state or repitions of their RNGs, it's just the people; I'm used to playing Russian donks.

    I can appreciate your run, hopefully though, you're kidding about the "hero" part.

    Congrats man you are doing well. I would try to play slightly more aggressive when you hit on the flop in your HU SNg's but good job

    Of course.

    Lost my BR a bit today when I hoped to win in a ring game. Like I learned when I was young: Never drink beer in the morning. I fortunately got it back when I 'played' a HU Sn'G---guy was a KING ranked HU plr but he couldn't answer or solve my riddles; too much speed in my play for him to compensate the wrong answers proved by showing my bluffs.

    Got him all-in when I called a flop bet with nothing hoping to raise a flush draw on the turn:

    Seat 1: ge-vich (1382 in chips)
    Seat 2: IlmariRuth (1618 in chips)
    IlmariRuth: posts small blind 20
    ge-vich: posts big blind 40
    *** HOLE CARDS ***
    Dealt to IlmariRuth [Ks 3s]
    IlmariRuth: raises 48 to 88
    ge-vich: calls 48
    *** FLOP *** [9c Qs 4d]
    ge-vich: checks
    IlmariRuth: bets 129
    ge-vich: calls 129
    *** TURN *** [9c Qs 4d] [7s]

    ge-vich: bets 280
    IlmariRuth: raises 1121 to 1401 and is all-in
    ge-vich: calls 885 and is all-in
    Uncalled bet (236) returned to IlmariRuth
    *** SHOW DOWN ***
    IlmariRuth: shows [Ks 3s] (a flush, King high)
    ge-vich: shows [Qc Td] (a pair of Queens)

    He had some good pots won but it wasn't enough:

    Good showing ge-vich!!! Hopefully you can find a ringer 'till the next time!

    Won an easy HU Sn'G. She/he only 51 matches so I think he/she got tired after the 50th or so hand. Didn't really give up or anything---just made some really bad decisions.



    Weird bet:

    Seat 1: IlmariRuth (1747 in chips)
    Seat 2: GoolseAces (1253 in chips)

    *** HOLE CARDS ***
    Dealt to IlmariRuth [Ah Tc]
    GoolseAces: calls 10
    IlmariRuth: checks
    *** FLOP *** [Ad 5s Td]
    IlmariRuth: checks
    GoolseAces: bets 40
    IlmariRuth: raises 40 to 80
    GoolseAces: calls 40
    *** TURN *** [Ad 5s Td] [9h]
    IlmariRuth: checks
    GoolseAces: bets 140
    IlmariRuth: calls 140
    *** RIVER *** [Ad 5s Td 9h] [6h]
    IlmariRuth: checks
    GoolseAces: bets 320
    IlmariRuth: calls 320
    *** SHOW DOWN ***
    GoolseAces: shows [3d Qc] (high card Ace)
    IlmariRuth: shows [Ah Tc] (two pair, Aces and Tens)
