So I am getting closer to cashing in the big weekly tournaments at Pokerstars. This week I entered a $5 rebuy satellite where the top 39 places won an entry into the $530 Sunday million tournament. After paying another $5 to add-on I won one of the places.
Then I entered the Sunday $100k tournament for $11. This has 20,000 players with the top 3000 getting paid. I have entered it about 3 times and made the money once. Today I continued my "bubble" streak and finished 3148.
The Sunday million is where the big money is at and with just over 3100 entries and the top 486 places being paid I eventually finished in 882nd place. I like to watch a few different players in this tournament after I have been knocked out who seem to do consistently well. Players like 'westmenlAA' an 'The__D__RY' and 'apestyles'. They always seems to go deep in these tournaments and I am trying to learn how they do it.
It seems I still have lots to learn about this game and am thinking of signing up for one of the poker training sites to see what it can teach me. Also I am starting to re-read my poker books, particularly Harrington and Sklansky. I seem to have got to a stopping point in my progress where I can win some SnGs and smaller tournaments but cannot get deep in the bigger tournaments.
Just so you know it was no walk in the park I also tried several times to satellite into the Full Tilt $750k tournament with no success at all. I decided this was just not meant to be this week and I will try again next week.
