Going nuts at UB

#1 18th April 2008, 1:30 AM

I've been doing extremely well at UB , so this evening I'm in my biggest tourney ever. $35+ bounty, 7.5 K guaranteed. I won more than that today there so it is sort a congratulations cake thing.

Am I stupid to do this?

Not if you do it for fun. I saved up my winnings for a while and invested in the $30 rebuy as a reward for solid play over the month. For the last 2 hours I got to sit at the table across from Annette Obrestad, and actually drew the seat to her right at the final table.

I wound up finishing 4th (Annette won) and made a nice profit of about $1100. I honestly believe that I would have been equally pleased with the experience had I not cashed - there is something to be said for getting to play what felt like a real tournament vs. the little ones I could afford at the time

It was a treat, I did nothing grossly wrong, had fun and made 3 bounties at $5 each. And got toyota'ed in the end.

There is a big tourney cash in the air for me, I can feel it.

a treat is fine but obsessivly going outside brm boundaries is bad.....youll be fine one time dj
