Late last night my time (early morning server time) I made the last minute decsion to play in a $2.25 NLHE tourney on FT. Had a blast. 181 runners by the end of late registration so 18 get paid. Nearly 3 1/2 hours later we are approaching the bubble (20 left) and I am sitting comfortably in about 9th, just under the average stack went I get dealt JJ. You all know the old saying.....there's a million ways to play JJ, all of them wrong! I ran into QQ and got crippled....I think I didn't even have enought for a BB left. I thought to myself "That's about F#%&cking RIGHT...I'm going to buble again!". Now here's where the thanks comes in. There were a heap of RB's there cheering me on and helping me keep my head and thanks to them I was able to do just that and claw my way back into it before going out in 17th. I'm sure I'll forget someone but those who's names I recall after a good sleep are watchdog26 (who was in the Razz freeroll at the time LOL), tanatloc and mdafka. I apologise to those who I forgot.....but it was about 2am by the time I got off the computer and went to sleep! So...once again, to my mates here....and especially my clan mate (Cartel 4 Life!!!!!!!) I give you a big THANK YOU!!!!
BTW...early in this tourney I called in late position with KJ....and the flop came out KKK!!!! Checked it to the river when 1 player pushed all in with an A high flush and gave me all his chippies!! I'd put up the screen pick....but it's come out too small to see properly.
I just had to brag about it because it had me picking my jaw off the ground.
