I will be doing a micromillions challenge with tinolaan and others (Info can be found here: MicroMillions side competition)

I will be using this blog to update my progress/results etc. I will probably be playing ~30 events.

I'm not exactly very experienced at MTTs, mainly a cash game player. But just looking forward to have fun (and of course HOPE to bink something )

Can't wait

Really bad play from my part imo. 20 bbs could be a shove pre anyway. On the turn i could do much better than calling. Just proves how big a mtt fish I am

Event #6 update:

Just made it to addon, but spent I think 4 rebuys. lost 333<888, AA<AJ, 22<KJ. AA<AJ was a big one because had I won I would have decent stack, but ended up double rebuying of course :facepalm:

So obviously not going good so far, unless miracles happen post addon.
