Nobody likes bad beat posts but this makes me feel a little better by ranting here. This is by far the worst that I have ran all year. Even though I'm out a ton of $EV, I still feel robbed of thousands of dollars that aren't recorded in terms of EV (ie. obvious cooler setups but most importantly situations where most of the money is already in the pot before hands get flipped on the turn/river when it is too late for EV to record the suckout). Whatever, for the first time ALL YEAR I actually feel like I can make SNE lol and I SEE THE LIGHT! To all those who have bets on whether or not I will make it, I personally guarantee victory at this point. Go ahead and spend your bet winnings in advance, I'm looking to bring this thing home early tomorrow morning or mid-afternoon.

Run better plz, 6.9K VPP's to go!
