Our boy just knocked out former Main Event champion Ryan Riess!

On 2.3M, currently 79/274, if PokerNews chip counts are to be believed!

Bagged 270k, which is right about average.

I was up over 400k, but I made some pretty creative light plays that were inadvisable.

What a whirlwind!

I thought I played and ran pretty well today.

We’re still about 100 knockouts away from the money. The bubble should pop early into Day 2 tomorrow.

Well I’m gonna get some sleep. Big day coming back to a BAG tomorrow!...

Just fold there. The first time

I think…in general, bluff catching is hugely overrated. But angle catching is an even more difficult and scary expedition and you’re better off opting out and finding better spots

Out in 250th place, for $1,057. Laddered up a pay jump for a sweet, sweet $50 more than a mincash.

Folds to me on the button with A7s. I raise, a shortstack goes all in, for about 65% of my chips. I think it’s a call… and he has 55. 7 in the window, but the next 4 off are hearts, and I lose.

Down to 95k at 10/15. Had to fold through the blinds, down to 55k, less than 4bb.

Folds to me in the CO, and I have 98s. First in, time to go, and hope I have two live cards. Folds to the BB, who shrugs and calls with 76s, of the same suit.

All in and ahead with 9-high, that’s better than I could have hoped for!

But the 7 on the turn crushes my hopes and dreams.

Ah well. It was a good run. Thought I played well, happy with all my decisions.

Not gonna jump right back into flight B. I’m going to get paid, take the rest of the day off, and go home and do laundry.

Then we’ll fire Flight C fresh tomorrow morning!

Thanks to everyone for following along....
