BUSTO!

Busted very early in Day 1b.

It was a very difficult hand. After being moved from my first table which was incredibly soft, I got moved to probably the toughest table in the tournament. It was myself, Jason Mercier, Johannes Strasseman(Psier on stars), and two other pretty good young players.

Jason and Johannes are friends with my older brother Max, and knew that I was his brother and I had been friendly with them. After a few hands of folding I raise AQs t2500 with a 35k stack UTG+2, Mercier makes it 6500 in the CO. Its a very tough spot but he 3bets a very wide range so I 4bet shoved. He called with KK. I flopped an Ace but he backdoor flushed me, if I win that pot I have an 80k stack and could have probably made a lot of good things happen but alas such is life.

Luckily Its sunny out I'm on the ocean and life all around is pretty great. Going to get a massage now, but I figured giving a quick update would be smart.

I've played a fair amount with Psier, both live and online. Yeah, he's pretty tough. GG man sucks to make it there and bust.

Has he changed his Stars name to J Strasserman? I played a few sessions of a guy by that name and thought he was nitty/straightforward the first time and then pretty good the second time. If I'd known it was Psier I might not have sat with him

He is J Strasseman now. He's pretty nitty in general but he's smart/tough good hand reader and just doesn't make many mistakes. He's also a really nice guy fwiw.
