My OPL Season 02 Blog - Going FTW
So last time I was just to lazy to blog my personal progress but figured this time it would be different. This season of the OPL has been announce and already kicked off. New rooms have been introduced which means more money is up for grabs.
If you do not know what the OPL is it is the Online Poker League - Around 80 events over the next 2 months, free to enter and over $25,000 added! You can view the site Here.
Recap of my season 01
People who watched the stream will have seen me getting pretty frustrated with the season as I just ran soooo bad in some key spots. I was lucky enough to final around 8 events out of the 45 or so I played and walked away with over $1,000 in leader board cashes and prizes. I won 2 tournaments which was a Unibet GoPro added and a Bet365 iwatch added. I took the cash equivalent for both!
So anyways onto Season 2
The plan? Go hard and win it allllllllll. I feel I left around $2500 worth of value on the table in season 1 and although there were somethings out of my control I still could have played better in some spots and played a few more events.
Results so far
Event 1: Party.Bwin $500 cash added. Sadly the entire Party servers crashed 40 minutes into this so it is currently marked as 'unsettled'. I will report back on what this means. So for now will count this as 0 points.
Event 2: WilliamHill $100 cash added. a 6th place finish losing JJ v AQ for the chip lead. Netting me 45 points.
Event 3: ACR $250 cash added. This year it is more US friendly and started at like midnight my time so I did not play this event. 0 points.
Tonight is a double bill with Tiger and BetOnline. Due to regulations I cannot play in the BO tournament but will be in the Tiger comp ready to crush. GRRRRRRRRRRR
