Gooooooooooooooooooooood Morning.

I am currently 11/27 (129K) in the "2nd chance" 10r that started at 1:30.

Also, I am 4/24 in a 4/180 w 18K.

[Mi_T_Sharp]

3/17 in the 10r w/ 256K.

3/18 in the 4/180 w/ 29k

[Mi_T_Sharp]

2/11 w/ 546K in the 10r. I am about to FT this badboy...#24233525

FT of the 4/180 #24599898 6/9 w/ 28K.

[Mi_T_Sharp]

CLer w/ 845K!!!!!! FT BABY!!!!

Edit: 8th in the 4/180. Yeah, I pretty much gave up paying any attention to that.

I am up to 1,190,662 in the rebuy though!

[Mi_T_Sharp]

2 million and counting. 4 left.

[Mi_T_Sharp]

I am absolutely pathetic, but oh well, I guess I learned something maybe? I don't know. I just blew it bigtime. But, to tell you the truth, thinking back I was so lucky to even be there in the first place. I bought in for like 160, and finished the rebuy period with only 5000. I made a massive run and it was unreal. Then, I just simply blew it. Ugh.

BTW, the 2 major hands I lost were when I had a set of 4s, with a 3 flush showing (he of course had it), and I couldn't get my FH on the river. Then, I lost with 88 to KK. The 88 one was bad. I don't know if I could've folded the first one the way it happened, but I definately coulda folded the 88 at some point.

I just posted this in the MTT forum, but I though I'd put it here too. Sorry for cluttering up this thread:

Thinking back, I think I got a little overconfident after running over the entire tournament for like 2 hours. I must admit I did feel a little invincible, and I might of forgot that I can lose a hand. I'll chalk it up as a lesson this time.

To be honest, I am just getting used to how to deal with running everyone over. I used to be too much of a puss to do it right, but not anymore. I am not completely used to dealing with my image when I am playing super aggressively and doing extremely well at the end of a big tourney. But, I am getting better at all of this stuff, and again I'd like to thank everyone here for really helping me learn a lot.

[Matt24]

FT of a $5 Limit rebuy, only 198 players. 2/9. A massive 762 to the winner.

[Mi_T_Sharp]

I told myself I was done playing poker today, and then I impulsively (or instinctively) enter a 180 man. I am such a degenerate.

Edit: The Friday night donks are out in full force. I am up to t4000 chips and we have been playing for like 10 mins.

[NHFunkii]

that's what I like to hear.

OK, Captain. Just for you, I am entering the next one too.

[NHFunkii]

I wish I could join you, but I've had this paper looming over me for too long. Also might not get to play the 320 tomorrow. Definitely playing sunday though.

[Mi_T_Sharp]

No worries. Your paper is more important than this stupid contest, and it is hard to play when you know you have work to do anyway. Plus, you only really need to play for like 3 more nights and you should be able to get enough points for us the way you rack them up.

I don't know for sure when I am going to be able to play this weekend, so I guess I couldn't resist a few 180 mans right now. I'm sure I will find time to play, though, knowing me, lol. Chipleader w/ 7260 36 minutes in!

[Mi_T_Sharp]

Meh. Out 26th in my 180 man when I pushed my nut flush/overcard draw and the guy called with top pair on the board. He was sooooooo close to folding (ran his time all the way down), but oh well. I lost my other one early AA<<AK. I am done for now, but I just might play the 55K or maybe something later than that when I am a little drunk. GL all!

KneeCo, Tubasteve, Lawsoncb.....Go out there and beat up on the weekend donks tonight!

GO TEAM FUNKI!!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!

[rockin]

FT of 180/4, 1st of 9. 24623886. Here goes nothing.

[Jurollo]

I have to have some sort of doomswitch on me, i swear. Off to get [censored] wasted now for the rest of the night haha
~Justin

[rockin]

I'm glad you're doing well; finals are killing me. Maybe tomorrow or Sunday night I can play for real rather than just stupid SNGs or the small set of 4/180s I did today.
