SCOOP - Day 4

     I slept really well and woke up around 9:30. My sister came to my place to have breakfast with me and Mariana, and after that we went to the park to do some exercise, some walking and some abs. I have a really nice park near home and when the sun is shining it is really a true pleasure to go there and to exercise in any way.
     After that we came home and  we started preparing lunch. Mariana ate the remaining noodles, i made some Pesto spaghetti for myself and my sister made a pizza in the oven. I think it is the first time i see 3 people having lunch together and everyone ate a different thing. I am also happy they ate pizza and ice cream and i was able to resist and to not eat any of that. I am aware i can not go 20ish days without eating some "garbage food" but the less the better.
     After a lot of talk and catch up with the girls i was ready to start my session. I was feeling really confident since i had some deep runs the day before, and for some reason things seem to go better when you feel confident about your game.
     In the first tournament i joined i made a deep run, The Big 5 euros, finishing up in 11/518 and cashing for 22 euros. It is always disappointing to fall so close to the trophy but won more than 4 buy-ins so that is really good.
     After that had few more small cashes and made a deep run in SCOOP-53, it was a 10 euros SCOOP. I finished in position 71/4627 guys which is already really close to the top from my perspective, and cashed for 58 euros. Again can not complain as i won almost 6 buy-ins but when the payouts are around 6k for 1st place it is somehow bitter to get so close. Also had my big friend Tiago cheering for me and watching my table, i can wait for the day to come when he will be cheering and i can actually bring home a big big score. Just like i did when he won Micromillions 4-max for around 5k some years ago.
     You remember me going really deep in the Daily Micro the day before? Yeah, i went really deep on that one again but this time i managed to win the trophy! I made a heads-up deal with another portuguese guy and i won the heads-up battle for the title. Cashed for 220 euros and finished 1/2313. After making some deep runs in the SCOOP with huge prizepools 220 euro might not seem much, but i am really happy with the result. That puts me up since the start of SCOOP and the confidence and motivation that winning a 2313 people tournament gives has no price. Also the day was +210 euros, a really amazing day!
     In the end, i grinded for 12h so i was really tired. I guess i might consider skipping the Daily Micro sometimes because it is usually the last regular speed tournament i join. So i think he will make the session super long a considerable amount of times, which would not be very good in the days i feel more tired.
     The grind continues today at 16h, and the dream to win a SCOOP remains alive! Still 15 days to go, and at least for now i do not feel the need to take a rest day. Im feeling motivated, confident and with a lot of energy.
