Thoughts of an American Grinder

Whats up everybody ,

Last night i watched pretty much the whole final table of the WSOP 50k mixed event (no limit holdem final table tho) and i was very entertained . The final table was exciting the whole time and I was impressed with Phil Hellmuth's play even tho his normal antics were standard annoying .  The level of play throughout the final table was very impressive tho and you gotta give all the guys who got there credit.  In the end we were left with Brian Rast and the legend Phil Hellmuth .  Both of these guys knew all about WSOP heads up experience this year with Hellmuth having two 2nds and Rast having won a bracelet this year .  The heads up between the two brought a lot of excitement as well , with both having leads at one time .  Hellmuth had an interesting strategy where he was limping most buttons but playing really aggressive postflop.  Rast seemed to get frustrated and Phil took quite a large chip lead . In the end Rast made a comeback by fading 3 of Phils flush draws in all in pots on his way to winning the bracelet and somewhere around 1.7 million dollars .

I have also been grinding as much as possible the last few days , and the results have been decent.  I have won enough that i will be moving up to 50nl and taking a small shot there .  I am excited for the weekend of fish at 50nl and for sunday when i get to play the bodog 100k .  I also made a small deposit onto the a site on the cake network.  I deposited $40 on the cake skin PPN (CEO is Chuck Kidd whos on quadjacks a lot) and plan on grinding it up from 4nl like i did on bodog to decent stakes .  I won a couple buyins so far and the games seem super soft .  Overall im really looking forward to having a big weekend and getting my grind on !

GL and see ya at tables
