Didn't make it far in the Stars $320 though I had some wild swings early on. Tripled up with a straight draw in a 3-way pot, then couldn't get AQ to hold over AT on an ace-high flop in a reraised pot. Then won with pair + flush draw over TPTK, then drifted down for an hour or so until I lost 33 to TT on a 652 flop.
I finished 2nd in the FTP 6-max $109 rebuy, though. Spent a lot early but it was worth it because I was able to win occasional big pots after the rebuy period (and given the great structure the big pots were a whole lot more BB than usual). So I got a big stack and was able to crush my way through right up until the final table bubble, where things fell apart a bit. I backslid a ways to become a short stack with 5 people left but doubled up twice and finished second in the end. Kinda disappointed with not winning an event, but it was a nice score all the same.
More later. Probably no live poker until the main event.
