So that's it.. just like that. A 3-outer to end a depressing series. I had one cash in a $2500 6max, and 13 busts on day 1s. I felt like I played well in all of my tournaments, especially in the main.

A quick recap because I'm still pretty tilted and confused on what my next step in life is. My table was terrible. Jamie217 and Pasterbator to my right and left respectively, but that wasn't really an issue as we never really got into pots together. There were a few European guys that never folded and I never made a hand. There was an Asian kid that was pretty laggy and never gave up. There were a few non-descript younger/middle-age kids and then there was superfish.

Superfish was quite a piece of work. He limp/called a few times, including limping behind JJ after an UTG limp and coolering a kid's 77 on J97. That was the only time we lost a player at the table until about 30 minutes left in day 1. I kept hearing about all the soft tables and all the retards at my friends' tables, and I had the nittiest table I've ever seen.

Back to the matter at hand, superfish had quite a few hands that were ridiculous. The JJ hand wasn't bad.. he limp/reraised AK huge, and he 3bet AK huge and won the flip vs Paster. He raised Q8s and flopped a pair and FD and shoved for 3x pot and won vs the NFD. He limped 88 twice, JJ once, and AK once. He raised 86o, Q8s and A9s. He minraised AA. He was my nemesis. He c/red a lot, including throwing out c/rs for ridiculous amounts as soon as anyone cbet. He was a nut.

He limped one hand and I completed 43o in SB (20k stack) after a couple limpers at 150/300/25. Flop was Ax2c5c and it checked through. I checked the offsuit 8 on the turn, Paster bet 1k, fish called and I made it 5k. I figured Paster wasn't calling a c/r with any of his range, so I may as well make it huge to be able to shove river vs the fish that never folded. It went as expected, and I shoved 1.5x pot on the offsuit 10 river. Superfish called with 88 and I doubled to 40k.

That was the last pot that I won for 3.5 hours. I raised QThh with 13k at 200/400, and BB called with 3k behind and check/called allin on J9xhh with TT. I binked a heart on the river to get to 19k or so.. and then we get the "final 3 hands" message from the TD.

I fold a couple hands and the last hand I open A9s UTG to 1k, superfish calls and Asian kid calls behind. Flop is Ac9c5x, I bet 2100, superfish calls. Turn 2x, I bet 5k and he shoves for my final 15k total.. I snap him off and he starts laughing really loud while saying "my turn to do it to you" and rolls 43o (no club). I brick river and am busto on the last hand of the night.

So that's it. 1/14 for the summer, and haven't really won at anything since I moved out here. I'm not sure where to go from here. I don't think I want to move to Canada, and I don't have enough of a roll to grind any live stakes worth grinding. Guess I'm gonna keep grinding on Merge and stuff for a while and see what happens there.. but I'm pretty depressed and lost right now.

Meh.
