Good day online on the cash tables, up just over a grand.
No joy in Manchester satellite though. Pretty card dead for most of it, but hung in there and with 12 left and three tickets was about average when I lost 2 allins in quick succession and that was that. First one I had Jacks in the SB against J9 on the button and the lucky bugger hit his straight. Second one was a pure race, A6s against 5's so fair enough. Just to make it more galling though, caught the 6 on the flop but a 5 on the turn killed me. Sometimes I hate tournament poker, and the next 15-20 minutes will be some of those times.
