Folding got you to around 2100 at my table. If you ever win a decent pot, you could sit out and make it, I'm sure. People have been busting all over the place now...down to 1150.

"super weak-tighted" my short stack into the monthly by folding QQ and KK preflop on the bubble... i feel so dirty...

That sounds awful. An entry into the monthly is only worth $125, while 1st place for the current tournament is 12.5 thou.

Also, you have 5 more chances to get into the monthly.

simple math explains it: monthly seat is worth $125 + (1/8 x grand final seat value)... the grand final seat will probably be worth somewehere in the neighborhood of $4000-5000, making the monthly seat worth $125 + (1/8 x $4000-5000) = $625-725 (not to mention the slight increase in EV with the additional prize money in the monthly offline final)...

now, look at the weekly payout structure-- 11th place only gets $120!!! with a short stack on the bubble (over 2000 people left), these are easy folds (even though they FEEL dirty)...

Had about 35k at third break, but 88 < AK, and KK < QQ in consecutive hands and I'm out.

Out in 329nd place

Good luck to the players still in. It sure is hard to focus on playing your A-game with a [censored] up payout like that.

Hey Meuli, I think I doubled you up right before going out.
Nice hand.
