0 for 4 in SCOOP Events

Well, the PS SCOOP events did not go exactly as planned. I ended up splitting my $33 ticket into a $22 and a $11, giving me 2 of each to play over the 2 week span from what I had won during the blogger events back in January.

On 5/11 I played the $11 NL Event and went out 5668/16000+ when I ran AhQh into AA.

5/13 I played the $11 PLO8 Event. I ended up going out 2539/7017 and could never get anything going with mediocre hands.

5/14 I played the $22 NLO8 Event. I finished 1949/1352. Getting rivered as this final hand shows seems typical of late:

On 5/16 I played the $22 NL Event and went out ~ 20000/24000 when this hand happened. I flopped the flush & had him right where I wanted. The bad river card came yet I still shipped the rest of my chips...... inexplicable!
