i just finished playing with this guy in reno. He was to my left and somebody asked how he did at shooting stars...I looked over and say " Oh your the guy who folded aces twice". He got a shy look on his face and goes " ive been playing poker for 35 years and thats all im ever gonna be rememberr for"... Funny stuff. silly cajun hick.

the funny thing is he bought into the Shooting Stars event for the full $10K.

If that's true that makes it even worse. If he was only in for $100 and the $15K is lifechanging for him (credit card, house forclosure, whatever), then I understand, but to buy in for $10K than fold AA 3 times is just awful.

I believe the event he played in wasn't the shooting stars. I think they're saying he bought into the shooting stars event for 10K after winning his money after satelliting into the other event.

He might as well have walked away and come back when someone was eliminated.
