I got pretty lucky this tourney. I got alot of hands when i needed them but also had to make moves when i was short stacked.

Made one big mistake though, i had just tripled up with pocket A's and became chip leader on my table (but not in the entire tourney), i tried to raise 3x bb with pocket 8's against the other big stack at the table and got called, then i had a straight draw and got check/called, then i shoved the turn but found out i was against a higher straight, :(

Lost about 2/3 of my stack on that one hand but i remained focused after that hand and held on to get to the final table, by the time we were at the final table with 9 players, all but 2 were short stacked. I made my last stand with Q/4o from cutoff with 5 players remaining but one of the big stacks (the other big stack was chip leader) called me with Q/Jo after tanking for awhile and i was out.

I got $450 for my efforts, but just thinking i may have made it to top 2 or even shipped this tourney if i didn't make that big mistake. Here is the picture to prove it.

Hey ironmask92,

Nice effort. It generally doesn't matter how well we play. To FT and or ship a tourney like that you need luck in key hands.

Pay jumps on any FT make any action either costly or rewarding, depending on the result of the hand.

Next tim, please ship

Laz

P.S. Fixed your image so it would display. :f_thumbsup:

Strange. It worked fine before. You haven't deleted the file from the image hosting site or renamed it?

Regards

Laz

Hey ironmask92,

I can only suggest that you check the file address to see if it matches. It's possible that the address has become corrupted by an incorrect character.

Regards

Laz
