Well I was sitting pretty in 13th with only one player to bust, I had already folded 99 to a 3x raise when I was in the big. There were a couple of short stacks around and I was patiently waiting for them to bust.
2/3 hands I get premiums....

Way back when the thing first started I took a huge bad beat that dropped me to near last place, 1100 of 1107, I have clawed my way back up pretty good since then.

Edit #2-
I made the final table, currently 3rd of 7 remaining.
playing some absolute poker .10 .25 nl cash game. Turned my free 10 into 22 in 15 minutes, hope to make it more by the end of the hour Then i'll work my way to .25 .50
LoL made to 61, and then lost it all when the luckiest guy ive ever seen sat to my left. Calls a 2.50 pre flop raise with 107off. A 5 dollar raise on the flop with an inside straight draw, and hits on the turn. Does the exact same thing a dozen hands later and hits a runner runner flush. Very next hand i make a 3$ pre flop raise with qq, he calls. Ace hits the flop, and i fold to his first bet, sure enough he has ace 7off and called the big pre flop raise. Ended up tilting and going all with J10suited, unfortunately the raiser wasn't weak and actually had Pocket Aces. Twas a good run from winning 13$ in a freeroll. I think next time i'll play serious and stick to .10 .25 with tight play to build up a nice stack before switching to .25 .50...
Vent thread
Pocket Kings. Guy to my right doubles the blind to $6k. I reraise to $18k. Easy laydown right?
Flop is all low. He checks. I bet my last $10k. Easy laydown right? No. He flips up his A10o. You know the rest.
But as for the Cdns, I found out last night that Fish is not from Aurora Ontario, he is from Aurora, Il as is Belowabove. Just outside Chicago. Go figure.
So a while back I played in a satellite for the $33R WSOP Qualifier, I won my seat but couldn't use it. Today I was trying to get rid of my 33W$, so I asked a friend of mine what I should do with it.
They said use it.
So I did.
I only bought in for the initial free 33W$, no way my cheap ass was going to pay $30 of my own money for 1500 chips. I played it tight tight tight. No rebuys, I did do the add on though. (and by tight I mean 34 of 222 flops tight, 15%Â )
Now I find myself in contention for a seat to the WSOP! I am currently 3rd of 13 left.
1st- $11,000 seat plus $1000
2nd-4th- $650
5th- $280
Just made the FT.
6th of 9, my QQ got cracked for 40K by A6.
Out in 7th, Went all in with AJ vs TT, crippled me down to 11k, won a few to get back up to 30K then got 99 all in vs AQ vs QQ...... the 4th Q hit the board.

Pocket Kings. Guy to my right doubles the blind to $6k. I reraise to $18k. Easy laydown right?
Flop is all low. He checks. I bet my last $10k. Easy laydown right? No. He flips up his A10o. You know the rest.
I should have been out ages ago, but everytime I was forced to push I won the pots.

Winning a nice pot off a good player like Imafish4u must have made you feel invincible, which is prolly why you couldn't let go your bluff later.
Wish I could rail, but these days have to be sleeping by 10pm at latest.
But as for the Cdns, I found out last night that Fish is not from Aurora Ontario, he is from Aurora, Il as is Belowabove. Just outside Chicago. Go figure.
They said use it.
So I did.
I only bought in for the initial free 33W$, no way my cheap ass was going to pay $30 of my own money for 1500 chips. I played it tight tight tight. No rebuys, I did do the add on though. (and by tight I mean 34 of 222 flops tight, 15%Â
Now I find myself in contention for a seat to the WSOP! I am currently 3rd of 13 left.
1st- $11,000 seat plus $1000

Just made the FT.
6th of 9, my QQ got cracked for 40K by A6.
Out in 7th, Went all in with AJ vs TT, crippled me down to 11k, won a few to get back up to 30K then got 99 all in vs AQ vs QQ...... the 4th Q hit the board.
Down to 19....
and out in 19 - hoping to move this over to ding ding ding - but 87 on a 6 dollar investment isnt horrible...
maybe next time.
Edit: Not trying hard enough, though I can't believe he called.
Out 13th. I may be the worst player ever at final 2 tables.
