If I make the final table I must confess this hand.

this is really bad - I didn't put him on AA cause he had just doubled up to 100K the PREVIOUS hand with AA

this is as ugly as poker gets friends - AA twice in a row - cracked once - thank god that was me [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

Hey, that was me! I would have been 3rd chipleader if I'd won. Oh well, that's muthafukin poker.

Yeah, that hand sucked, but then I donked off the rest of my chips calling an all in 99 with KQ on a 9 J K board.

I play great.

you didn't lose much to me - as I recall you were still up over 30K or so -

yah - can't tilt - I've had lots of opportunity to - but now I'm 61st and climbing - can't give up yet -

only stuck for $55 - so it's all profit from here.

just busted out in 133 place. 2 into the money. wooohoo.

i got dealt AK and the flop came KQ7 and i got all my chips in. villain had AA and it was all over for me.

bought in for $51.
cash out $71.
net profit = $20.
time spent playing = 4 hours.

not too bad. $5/hour and my parents said nothing would ever come from playing poker.
