Finished 5th for just over $1500.

4th chip pos who was trying to steal every button raised and I pushed from SB (8 BBs) with K8o. He was committed to call with TJo and caught.

Was pleased to fend through 1021 players to make a 4200% ROI.

Congrats. It's rough playing a Full Tilt FT with their blind structure. I went into one the other day as CL and ended up 4th after getting no cards and only being able to steal a couple pots.

Also, if you know he's trying to steal every time he's button, but will be calling your push with any two, you can muck K8o and try to get the chips in during a more favorable situation.

Good point. I think I was a victim of fatigue. It was 3am by this point, we had been playing for 5 hours, and I had to get up at 7. As long as I went in with the best of it, I was content. Not the most +EV strategy, but I can't complain about $1.5K
