Shipping live and life in Brazilllllllll

Long time no post. Mainly because im the laziest man in the world. Ugh anway. The last month has been fantastic, il start with a short trip report of the GUKPT Brighton.
Thats the view from our poool. WEEEEEEEEE





GUKPT

Well things started off great when I missed my flight over (wp sir) and had to shell out 200 yo's for a new one. Arrived at the Queens hotel in Brighton after many a tube and train from london about 4pm on monday. Met up with James666 and his mate Craig(Kickoff) and checked into our room. Decided to get involved in the action right away and play the 200 pound freezeout that night. I played very well and ran my 7k stack up to about 35k nearing the end of the night. There was about 28 left with 18 paid when my bustout hand came up. At 600/1200 (some ante also) the table donkey (and i mean total donkey, he was awfullllll in every way possible) opened to 3600 in the cut-off, i looked down at KK on the button and 3 bet to 9800. He called after some thought and we saw a pretty minging Ad Qd 7s flop. The monkey deliberated for ages (and announced out loud that I could have 1010 or JJ and might fold if he bets) anyway, he ended up shoving for 40k, lol. It really confused me and I defo thought he was bad enough to do this with a rando Q or a flush draw. I made the hero call and he tabled A10o. gg.


Came back rearing to go the next day and played the 300 pound event. Again played really solid and managed to finish day1 on about 60k with about 20 odd left. There is only one hand i remember that was pretty fun. 10k stack 100/200, i open utg+1 with Kc9c TO 550 (my image is super lag also, but the table is super nitty) and this old dude with about 7k flats. We see a flop of 2 2 8. I fire 750, the old dude looks uncomfortable and raises to 2300. I think he is making a play against me here alot and if I shove it looks super strong on such a board, so i jammed and he folded 99 faceup, obv i flipped the K9 cause im a dick:)


Cruised to the final table about 2nd or 3rd in chips. Played super lag and was really enjoying it. I cant really remember the details, but about 20 hands into the final table the chip leader utg announces all in (lol, for about 40 bbs) im in mp1 and peek down at KK and cram sooo fast. He tables JJ and I hold to scoop a rediculous pot. His shove is sooo bad. James666 finaltabled also but busted in 6th because he overvalues ace high:) 4 handed I won a flip with my 88 vs AJ to get us three handed. I was soon HU and finally got all the money in when i 4bet all in with K8( I had been running him over and he was 3 betting super wide, so I dont mind this play at all) he said 'lets gamble', I was like fuck I only have k8 lol, but he flipped 108 and I managed to hold FTW. 14k Great British Pounds and change yoooooo. And the Gukpt tounry of champions at the end of the year. Was really happy with the win and how I played. Obv went out that night and got smashed. My main event didnt go well at all but I had 10% of James666 who came 2nd. Ship the 4.3k to meeeeee, weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.




In Brazil at the mo and loving it. In a great house, great weather and living it up. Playing great online also, up about 10k in my 1st week here which is nice.
