Other People Should Just Stop Playing the Cake 30r

Shipped Cake 30r again last night. Last four results in that tournament:

1/26: 3/292, $2500
1/27: 1/310, $5638
1/29: 71/225, $0
2/2: 1/354, $6057

What was I doing on January 29th? Terrible.

So apparently my Cake 30r heater is continuing. Last night was one of the most spectacularly inept final tables I've ever been at, with only one or two players seemingly having the faintest idea what they were doing. This last hand is fairly representative:

Hand #176540B744003922: DAILY $25K GUARANTEED!! - R&A
Seat 9: Mill*** (655966.00 in chips)
Seat 10: bzimzim (995534.00 in chips)
MilllerThyme posts ante of 3,000
bzimzim posts ante of 3,000
bzimzim: posts small blind 15,000
Mill***: posts big blind 30,000
Dealt to bzimzim [ Kc Tc ]
bzimzim: raises to 75,000
Mill***: calls
@@@ F_L_O_P @@@ [ 5d Ts 7d ]
Mill***: is all in 577966.0000
bzimzim: calls
Mill***: shows 7s Ks
bzimzim: shows Kc Tc
# # # TURN # # # [ Jc ]
&&& RIVER &&& [ 9h ]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
bzimzim wins 1,311,932 with Pair of Tens

Why not just shove 4 times the size of the pot with second pair. Not that I don't appreciate it.

That continues the excellent start for the year. I'm sure destroying the Cake 30r wouldn't impress anyone at pocketfives (which doesn't even link to Cake results) or make me a big name online pro or anything, but I'm pretty sure I'll take the money anyway. You know, once it clears the 45 day waiting period, because Cake still can't figure out how to send checks.

Probably a full work day today, can't really stop when I'm running this good. With a little Ohio State-Purdue mixed in.
