Ok, let me put it this way. I'm sitting at that table staring at edog, grinder and jdags all that have me hugely outchipped. I also know that I am a very easy read for them.

I am the short stack, I have 15 big blinds, I haven't been above average in two days.

Erick raises from the cutoff and the TIGHTEST player EVER moves in, and I look down at two aces, and I'm unlucky? Being in that spot and getting to have a no brainer decision and a 92% favorite after surviving 5 all ins is running soooooooo good.

I'm not bitter, disgusted or angry about the hand, I'm happy I didn't bust out due to some huge error in judgement or some big mental mistake.

Thanks THEOSU for the sweat and thanks to MLG for the kind words. You have some serious game my friend. It really wasn't that fun playing with you. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Great job, great finish, and most importantly great attitude. I wish I could say I would react the same way, but I know that I've steamed over beats for days that were for 1/100th of the money that was at stake here. I dont think anybody would blame you if all you did was mutter 92% favorite under your breath for a month. The ony thing more impressive than your finish is your outlook on the game.
