Well since it's June and made a decent score i may as well make a thread.

Post any bad beats, results, deep finishes, questions about tough situations, or just share information. I'm hoping i can make my 1st 1k score in June, good luck to me and would love any help that i can collect.

Good luck on the felts.

Well it's the reason i made the thread because i couldn't post in the May thread. Got 2nd a $7.70 180 turbo, almost had 1st i was chip leader HU had A10 and guy was really aggressive so i limped he reraises i push he has K9 and flops a King. We played a lil longer and ended up losing A7<AQ. can't complain about 2nd

Awesome effort! Well done

Congrats Flush - great job!!

And I finally got my elusive final table in the 30k on Thursday! Finished in 5th for $1562!!

We have set the bar for JUne very high!

nice score Dakota, well had a deep run in the $5.50 360 max last night. Coming in 12th, i was even chip leader with 13 left and i blew it . i was winning pots gotten lucky once than i pushed my luck. Flopped 2 pairs right away i shouldve pushed all in on flop. But of coarse i wait till 4th street to push where the villian completes his straight. . Dropping me from 70k + to 3k, was the 2nd time i could think that i made such a dumb play late. booooo hurt a lil but i am back at it today/

Will be playing some tournys this morning the $5.50 20k and the $11 30k or $11 15k.

Good luck to all that join

I will be in the 30k or 15k myself - good luck!

Nooooooooooo, thought for sure i had this one decently deep in te $5.50 20k. of coarse my AA goes down

Today i'm just going to play the Daily 30k and $11 15k. I got to scared yesterday to play either of the $11 tournaments. Im just hoping i dont make a terrible call again like i did in 3 of my last 5 MTT's. I play my game the whole way than i just blow and make 1 mental error. Usually over thinking and changing my mind booooo.

Good luck to all that join and hope to meet on the final table

No cashes for dakota today - but I sense a big cash before the end of this month.

Wow, you guys are out of my league. I will have to hang around here some to learn how to play. I cash in about 20% of the MTT's I play in. I still am not ahead although most of the money I am playing with was won in freerolls.
I will keep an eye on all your play to make my game better. Hope no one minds. 8)........"G"

Jump in Nats - there's just a few of us that hang out in here together and talk about our tournies.

Well have a lil set of tournys:

$2.20 6 max 4k gtd @ 14:45 est

$5.50 Turbo @ 15:00est

$8.80 5k gtd @ 16:00

Got knocked out of the $5.50 Turbo couldnt get no cards, barely hanging in the $2.20 6max 4k gtd. And the $8.80 is about to start have been getting some bad beats lately hopin i can turn it around.

Good luck all

Good luck!

I busted out of the 15k and now playing in a $3 R for the WSOP qualifier on Sunday.

$2.20 6 max 4k gtd @ 14:45 est 773/3636.....AK<77

$5.50 Turbo @ 15:00est 1590/3600.......A8<A10

$8.80 5k gtd @ 16:00 1248/1935.........KK<AA

arghhh in the $2.20 i raised he reraised than i pushed all in. flopped a gutshot, 4th street had flush draw. So i needed any diamond, 10, A, or K on river but couldnt hit. . And in the $8.80 pushed my KK into AA and guy flops an Ace boooo.

Well hopefully better luck later on or tommorow.

Ouch - not much happening for me today either.

In another set of tournaments

$2.20 5k gtd doubled chip stack in 15 mins

$2.20 3k gtd @ 00:00

$5.50 360 max @ 00:15

$3.30 5k gtd @ 1:00

$2.20 5k gtd........1166/2682...had 4500 and had AK in big blind decided to call all in by the guy who was 1st to act he had 4200. he ended up having 99 i flopped an ace thought i had it but than seen that he flopped trips

$2.20 3k gtd @ 00:00.....again i ran my KK in to AA

$5.50 360 max @ 00:15....and here is the bust hand to my $5.50 360 max

I figured he couldnt be that strong pushing all in 1st to act was right than got runner runnered.

So not hot of a night ended up throwing in two 180 $2.20 turbos

44/180.....standard bust

28/180......was decently low and bigger stack was before trying to steal my big blind. I decide to push all in with K9 suited he calls with 9-7, was a lil happy flopped a flush draw. so he had only 2 outs 7 clubs 7 hearts. And of coarse he pops the 7 hearts and i miss flush on river.

$3.30 5k gtd.....169/1701 Was low stacked and was card dead for awhile so i decide to push with K-10. won $6.12
