I might just be at the worst rebuy table I've ever been at

[bestcellar]

in for $141 already, and I'm not even playing maniac style. 99<86, top pair has lost about a zillion times, etc.

[bestcellar]

I really need to stop playing MTTs.

[cappla011]

im in the $10 deepstacks, this is the first tournament I've played all week. I haven't been playing at all because I have absolutely no money right now and still owe thousands of dollars in tickets. I couldn't even go to Turning Stone. not fun /images/graemlins/frown.gif

[Mi_T_Sharp]

I won another 11r 215 satellite. I have played in 3 this w/e and won 3 seats. I am playing the million obv, moneyed the Stuper last night (turning the 150 T$ into 250 cash which wasn't bad), and I guess I will play the Stuper again tonight! I am a HIGH roller this w/e!!!! WOOOHOOOO!!!!

[Mi_T_Sharp]

Almost....

Out 22nd in the 55 420 runner 3:00 PM EST. I had a 17K stack and was in top 5 or so. I got crippled to 4K by a tough beat. Then I got back up to 17K, and this hand occured...sooooo close to a very nice stack. With 420 runners, I thought for sure this tourney was mine....

3) Grow stack back
4) Repeat steps two and 3

[fresherthanflynt]

lol

[Mi_T_Sharp]

I feel like that red headed guy from the 2005 ME TV episode that says, "(crying) I played perfect poker for 2 weeks....."

I am still going though. Screw everything else. I want to win a tournament.

[Mi_T_Sharp]

I am marathoning it....over 12 hours and I am still entering tounaments. I have been able to consistently go deep all day long, but haven't really gotten anywhere. Hopefully, the 18th hour will be special.

I am 35/100 in the 20+2 that started at 1:30 AM. I swear to god I want to win this POS so bad my eyes are bleeding.

[fresherthanflynt]

lol goodluck with that
