Qualified for the Tuesday $1050 on Stars to start the month. I've been trying to qualify for more $1000 entry tournaments, can play for big money without the monstrousity of a field. Finished a disappointing 47th. Man did I get hit with the deck in that tournament. But thanks to one resteal gone horribly, horribly wrong, ended up fairly short at the end when I made this call:

Standard? Too loose? That guy had been shoving a lot, and I really wouldn't have been surprised to see A9 or something there, and was willing to gamble in a coin flip situation due to a relatively short stack at that stage. Brutal river IMO. Just felt like I missed an opportunity in general, don't catch cards like that in every tournament. Very frustrating.
On a sort of funny note, Hevad Khan was at my opening table, and one or two people were typing "BULLDOZEERRR!" That made me laugh.
Things have not gone well since then. Overplayed KQ into KK on Q high flop against some donk in the 150k, much to my annoyance. Shit I can't even beat a 1/2 NL cash game right now. So taking today off, soccer game anyway. I'll get back to work tomorrow. Down about 2100 for July at the moment, and about 4k down swing overall. Annoying.
Think I'll hit the casino one day this week and go donk around. Also the Heartland Poker Tour is coming back to Majestic Star. Maybe that'll go better this time.
