At last, my SCOOP campaign has kicked off !
I was originally planning to play Heads Up NL Hold'em (Event #7) on 8th May, but that day we went up to London and didn’t get back in time…. so tonight's Mix NLHE/PLO (Event #22) was the first game for me
The starting stack was 5000 and with 15 min levels, there is a lot of play to look forward to, but sadly I didn’t even make the end of late entry 
The simple reason was that I decided to play tight/solid and was basically not getting any hands. Won a hand in level 3, but didn’t play many hands and there were only three big hands I played… my A-K<A-T took a chunk out my stack, then in PLO I played a decent hand against big stacked aggro player who bet every street with one pair… shame I also only had one pair in the end, despite having a decent set of draws. The last big hand was my exit hand on NLHE when my A-K<9-9… wasn’t even a sweat as flop came 9-Q-6
Overall I think the few hands I played were played right, so although a bit disappointed, not that worried.
