23rd place Wooohooo. I made a couple mistakes that's I'm not too proud of late in the tournie but I definately think I had a really good shot at making the final table if my last all in didn't run into queens.
I started the tournie just playing regularly. I got low on chips with my 5k starting since the blinds were getting a little high and some guy donates 5k to me when I had QQ on a paired bord. Early tournament players suck. After a while I started to get low again and made an idiotic call with 99s vs a persons QQ... but I luckily sucked out. Right afterwards I'm dealt aces and bust a short stack then JJ and push a raiser out of the pot. I'm looking so good with 125k... Afterwards I'm just getting bullied around. No one will fold to me and was only getting decent hands. I had to wait for the nuts... and turned out to only get it in with 50 50s several times and eventually got blinded down in 23rd place against a person's queens.
I know I sucked out a lot and it looks pretty bad but I think I played pretty well. I made like 2-3 big mistakes all tournament so I guess I still have some work to do. Hard to play perfect... I'm still happy the way I played.
Today: +7k tournie +1k cash = 8k
YTD: 23k

Didn't you get 23rd??
you could have won 10k if you let me and the gambler take over your stack with 80-100 left. i would have started staking you in cash games too if you would have let me take over.
lol. Nice try Poo. You went back and fixed your first sentence, but you forgot your OTHER reference to 28th place:
"...and turned out to only get it in with 50 50s several times and eventually got blinded down in 28th place against a person's queens."
Nice job.
