Beginner's Luck!
I won the UltimateBet Tourney last night!
This was my first Cardchat tournament . Up until now, I've just played the UltimateBet freerolls with 5000 players. I've made final table there, but never won the whole enchilada. The tournament ended about 11:30PM CST, so I went right to bed afterwards. Unfortunately, my brain did not want to cooperate with the whole "sleep" thing. Me: zzzzz.... Brain: We won! Me: Huh? Wha? Yes, yes we did. Go to sleep Brain. Brain: Ok! --15 minutes later-- Brain: Wake up! We won! Me: Right. We've covered that. We have to get up and go to work in the morning. Go to sleep. Brain: But we WON! Me: I'll make a deal with you, Brain. Go to sleep now, and I won't kill off portions of you with beer this weekend. Brain: Really!? Me: ....No. Brain: Drat. This went on until about 4am. I am dog-tired this morning, but happy. |

Zohl first of all ,congrats on your win last night. Having watched the tournament until the end, having ended up 11th myself, i watched your impressive comeback from the shortstack when it was 4 handed. As for your win being beginner's luck, I don't think so.

Many thanks for all the kind words!
Bldofangls: I'm glad you were there to see me pull that win out. Honky69(?) had me 4-1 on the chipcount at the start. If I was going to have any chance at all, I was going to have to attack, attack, attack. At some point he lost his nerve and I just ate through his chip stack on his folds. Once I had him off balance, I was relentless with the raising. It could have gone very, very differently. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. ![]() |
