Re: EPT Monte Carlo Trip Report (3rd and Final Part)
I'm also mildly offended by those who are claiming this is an "ego" call or that I've been arrogant after making this call. I've just clearly, concisely wrote down my thought process. I knew I shouldn't have posted anything....I guess I'm sorry if I sound cocky after my hero told me "I play amazing." (which sounded like a summary of the day, not just the one hand)
Ask Gobbo, Carl, Ray, David Ross, Matt (mlagoo), Yuv, DeleteYou, or anyone else that spoke with me on break while I was playing with Patrik. I was NOT happy that Patrik was at my table, and was honestly terrified.
That being said, I'm not going to just concede and let Patrik run the table. You know how I got my stack to 60k?
Playing (and winning) pots against Patrik Antonius.
Read my previous reports. I profited 10k when I coolered a pot committed opponent with QQ vs his AQ on the AQJ, and won AA vs 99 for a profit of 10k.
I played some small ball and we'll say profited another 10k.
So, that's +30k from coolers/small ball + 15k starting stack = 45k. I had 60k...so where did the other 25% of my stack come from?
The good aggressive player to my right.
