The Poker Mutant will be retiring (mostly) from poker on 1 January. This is the latest installment in his thrilling countdown to the End of Times.

I don’t typically play the big Sunday tournaments on Ignition Casino, because of our evening family dinner and the preparations thereof, but I was up early and really, how many more Sundays are there this year? So I got into a $100K GTD NLHE Satellite with two other players and got about 10 minutes in before my trap was sprung on myself and my rivered two pair was beat by a better two pair made on the turn.

At midnight, down to the last two tables in a 525-entry Ignition Casino $5K GTD NLHE.
