Ggggooooooooooooooooo Tp!

Talking Poker 04-23-08 08:46 PM

I'm an MTT donk too, but apparently I run well when when I'm either playing with someone else's money (my biggest ever cash - WSOP Final Table #1), or when I'm donating all (this tourney last time) or some (WSOP Final Table #2) of my winnings to charity.

Currently 6/330.

I even cracked very badly played AA *and* JJ with JTs. ;)

292/294 ftl!

AKo ran into AA, we were both at M=6

M<1 right now! go me!

MAYHEM45 04-23-08 09:06 PM

lol i wake up from my nap to 5 chips. i should win obv.

Talking Poker 04-23-08 09:29 PM

I lost what was effectively a coinflip (dude called all in on the flop with overcards and a non-but flush draw), so I'm down to 92/172 now.

Still kicking Mayhem's ass though, obv. :rolleyes:

Talking Poker 04-23-08 09:37 PM

Some shorty's KQ > my AJ or else I'd be right back in this with an above average stack.

Akverno 04-23-08 09:45 PM

Currently 26/126

I got home from work an hour into the tournament had 540 in chips left. Thankfully I was sat at the biggest weak tight table ever. I've had two all ins called, one of them was 55 vs 88 but I got lucky. The other was AQs vs. J10s same suit.

All in post flop w/ 2 pair vs. flush draw and it held up. But all in all, it's going pretty well.

Akverno 04-23-08 09:50 PM

Then of course I lose a race, and get it all in 1010 vs. KK on a good flop for 1010 and I'm 101/112

Talking Poker 04-23-08 10:01 PM

Well, I'm out.

The Kiss of Death worked out for me twice, but then I ran into Aces when I needed it most:

The next hand officially finished me off. Interesting hand. I was actually ahead on the flop (crazy considering what I got it in against)!

GL to anyone still hanging in there. Sorry I couldn't win anything for the charity tonight.

Akverno 04-23-08 10:03 PM

I'm still in it, but this is the biggest roller coaster ride possible. I've gone from bottom 5% to top 10% like three times now. It's quite a bit of fun.

Akverno 04-23-08 10:06 PM

And I busted, I think I played this hand pretty well and got the exact result I wanted (at least until the last card fell)

Welcome to the Kiss of Death, sir.

chane 04-28-08 02:33 PM

Thanks to everyone who participated in our charity tournament. I had a blast and I hope all of you did too!

We ended up with 493 players! From the tournament, we raised $2,465.00 for the Children's Tumor Foundation!

I also want to thank everyone who made a direct donation. We raised over $1,500 from direct donations. That's a total of over $4,000 from online poker players!

Last, but not least, I would like to thank everyone who kept my nephews in their thoughts and prayers.

Your support has been amazing.

Thanks again,

Chane
