***Jolly January's Tournament Thread***

[Suited Frenzy]

Okay, this is crazy.

I entered a GTD satellite for .50 on ACR. It was already the final table with 4 people left, average stack 18,000. I sat down with 500. Can you see it coming?

Triped up the first hand. Plugged along crippled. Short stack doesn't really scare me. Before you know it there were two tables full of new entries. Turned into a push fest. I don't know how far late registration is for these, but it seemed to be about 18 levels.

Kept hangin and choosing my spots, and soon I was chip leader. No rebuys.

I won the stupid thing. Course, 4th wudda been fine as top four got the ticket.

Nice job :top:

I love comebacks like that. Especially on the final table.

I'm off to go play a few tournaments myself. Hopefully I can make the final table(s). Even if I have 500 chips when I do HaHa

Need to stop ****ing tilting from std. situations. Completely ****ed up friday, hopefully saturday will go better.

 

[Suited Frenzy]

Ugh...made a few horrible moves earlier in a PLO tourney. Got up to 41k in chips & someone hit me w/ the stupid stick & boom there they went.

I got my monies back though. Got 1st in a $5.50 9man sng

Overall, I broke even for the day.

Pretty sweet deal here. Hope to run well in the 100K tomorrow and make this worthwhile!

Very nice Justin!! (I went out early )

Actually had a profitable Sunday today, lol. Not much (~$200) but better than alot of my Sundays playing MTT's online.

 

[Poker Orifice]

lol, same. had my first profitable sunday in about two months and cashed in the 2.20r 9k gtd for $30.00. Fingers crossed this means the breakeven streak is over.

Had a couple of final tables on full tilt the last few days little 90 man $3 knockout came 3rd for $30 odd bucks and yesterday came 4th in a $1 rush rebuy $2500 guaranteed for a little over $218.:cheers:

Nice!

 

[doomasiggy]

Yep. Got absolutely destroyed at the $7.00's. MUCH more reggy.

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

I'd guess at a good time of day they'd be better. Also seems 180s have a better fish to reg ratio, probably because they're in the MTT lobby so maybe you could try them? The skills are transferable, just more variance I would guess.

Nah I'll stick to 45 mans. tbh it's just peter principle in effect. I'll just move down and try and plug some leaks before I try and move up again.

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

I would think that the higher you go, the edge becomes very very thin in the 45s.

 

[Poker Orifice]

18 & 27 man 'regular' speed is the way to go for SNG's imo. Without a doubt.

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

Started session late, now sitting here at 6am in the last 40 of the Daily Dollar on FTP :/

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

7.40am and I made the final table. Let me sleep already.

 

[onemorechance]

SUNDAY VAMOOOOOO

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY

 

[Pokertron3000]

Is anyone gonna play the 27$ satty to the tcoop main? I am in for a long shot. Won a step 2 ticket on a hyper dollar sat so will be a cheap punt.

Also can we discuss Temple Run 2 strat in here??????? If it makes it easier we can make a TR2 tourney yo!

Where did you end up Jonny?

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

Temple Run 2 strat is most definitely allowed. I came 4th.

 

[micalupagoo]

my best win of the month
damn Im a sad n sorry player
