I was blessed to have such a deep run in a very famous MTT. I made it from a sattie, so it cost me 2.2$ to get to the main event. Any bounty could bring me in profit, but my aim was to play great that I could be proud of.
Unfortunately I played the first hour from my phone, so no hands from that period. All-in-all I longed for 5.5 hours and reached 271st place.

Hand 1-2 (fun fact these were followed by each other):
1 :10h4::10c4: Made an UTG raise to 2.2bbs with 10-10, get called by two and BB pushed into all-in with 53bbs. We just covered this person, but ain't see any chance to having worse pocket, so it would be way too risky to call this off.

2 :2h4::2s4: As he became a monster stack, in the next hand he opened 2.2bbs from early position. Button just went 21bbs to all-in, which was a low stack at this point. We were sitting on BB having 22. Call here is not an option so fold or shove to maybe isolate the table chipleader. As we expect to see him opening light, and only one bounty could put us into profit, I went for my guts, and it luckily worked.


Hand 3: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/1255wn9Tt
3 :ad4::qs4:Made an UTG raise to 2.2bbs with AQo, and once again the same person answered - now with a re-raise. As much as it was a strong one, I decided simply let a chance for myself to see the flop, and if not connected, obviously fold. Flop brought us top pair, and BB made a weak raise we could just follow with a call. On turn we were facing with a continuation bet, and this time I decided to go for a safe min-raise. Interested what you think here, did it stop us from getting max-value, or was it important to defend top pair best kicker here? Should we be afraid of seeing higher pockets with these min-bets?


Hand 4: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/1255wuopO
4 :9h4::9d4: Incredibely agressive outplay of the 99 on my side. As we covered our opponent, I saw some boxes to making fold very massive hands, and on turn we did get rid of villain.


Hand 5: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/1255wxNmP
5 :10h4::8h4: SB-BB situation against now well-known opponent. Called the streeets till we found top pair, and we luckily punished these low bets by a shove.


Hand 6, 7
6 :qd4::jc4: 2.3bb raise, and after a passive outplay on flop, we pulled the triger on turn, and this bluff took down.

7 :9c4::10c4: Succesful defence.


Hand 8: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/1255wF4e2
8 :ks4::7s4:In the money, and there's nothing to loose. A bounty came in the picture, and I made this to two low stacks fight. We found a flush, lol.


Hand 9: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/1255wF9Wc
9 :kh4::ks4: This is the next hand, and getting along the fact that they may saw me weak by my last hand, and there was an UTG raise and just a call, I really expect to see an all-in here to pick-up the dead-chips and happily call with my KK. To my suprise, we held in a 3-way all-in and gaining a monster stack (top50 from 1300 left) also picking up a bootie too.


Hand 10: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/1255wFsrW
10 :9h4::9d4:99 again in a different view but same success.


Hand 11: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/8255wFWAK
11 :kh4::kd4:KK were with us once again, another bounty and now a fantastic night no matter what.


Hand 12, 13
12 :5c4::jc4: Overdominating small stacks with J5s.

13 :5s4::6s4: Overdoing 56s from position but still working.


Hand 14: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/8255wLmmH
14 :7c4::ad4:
Covered this person, and our weaker hand hold against low stack, another bounty.


Hand 15: https://www.cardschat.com/replayer/8255wOUQK
15 :kh4::qs4:22bb-s on my side, and a guy who had 250$ in bounties went all-in. For a day I thought it was a right call, eversince I don't. Maybe you can help me out in my elimination hand.


Thanks if you read it through, it was an amazing ride for me, but here to learn, so have a comment if you think you have some additional opinions about hands from here. Good luck! :)

1. wow great discipline w T's

2. 22 - once again you are a beast in reading hands, well played to get yourself a bounty + fold from the big stack

3. AQ - 11k is not really a min bet as we have pos, i think calling is a better option as you blocked a spade to get more value from weaker hands that would like to value owned themselves

4. 99 - amazing aggressive play on your part, personally I don't like playing big pots with medium strong hands out of position

5. T8s - im really astonished about how aggressive you are playing with Top pair weak kicker in position, you floated T high no draw and re-jam, you know your opponent too well kudos to you, love what I'm seeing from you

6. QJ - im going to c-bet most AKQJ flop bec that is our range and check coordinated medium boards like 987 865 suited boards

7. T9 - there you go at least you did not go aggressive route again haha

8. K7 - you went for the bounty, the aggressiveness of Mr. Jani came into play, but long term i don't think it's profitable, no idea really , you went deep with this kind of play maybe i'm too nit to play SM haha

9. KK - wow amazing just call with KK, you are playing so well, always the right move with your particular hand vs the spot

10. 99 - nice. this one we will play the same way good thing i didn't see any aggro 3-bet haha

11. KK - sun run good, i'm jealous haha

12. J5 - aggro Jani here he comes get out of the way haha, too loose for my taste but again you are the one who achieve deep run not me

13. 56s - i can understand the open bec bb is deep so you will have implied odds with suited connectors great play

14. A7 - how to be Jani run good haha

15. KQ - $250 bounty you are running too good that time you already blocked AK AQ and if you have read that big stack might be just isolating with a weaker hand why not, can't be too results oriented, at that time you went with your reads and guts just so happens that you stepped into a big hand but i think most of the time big stack might be doing that with KJ JTs with a lot weaker hands than KQ for the $250 you were fighting for so it's a 50% jam 50% fold depends on your mood that time

Congrats Jani, thank you for sharing your run good and learned a lot from your hands , more run good lezzzz gooo you will ship this SM one time we all know it because we believe we can do it
