I was playing in a 30+3 buyin multi the other day and I made a horrible horrible steal attempt, and proceeded to call even after he spotted it and moved in (it was borderline compulsory call).
I then proceeded to draw out on him with Q4 against AQ with Axx on the flop and 44 on the turn and river.

Oh yeah - this was in hand for hand on the bubble.

I promised him that if I made the final table I would give him his 30+3 back (never thinking for a minute that I would make the final table). Well I came 7th ...somehow...

For the next few days I could not win a thing - hardly a single hand let alone a SnG.

So this is what I did:

t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: Slim - do you remember me?
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: I've been looking for you
K-Slim: the ghost of the 30 buy in
K-Slim: sure, congrats on the tourney
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: yeah you remember. My lucky draw out on you with Q4
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: well I said I would give you the $33 back if I made the final table
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: so I will
K-Slim: no, don't worry about it
K-Slim: of course i thought about that one, but it happens
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: just thought I would find you before to explain, so you don't think money is randomly appearing
K-Slim: how did you finish in that one?
K-Slim: i know it was good
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: finished 7th
K-Slim: very nic3
K-Slim: e
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: it was the only hand I went in with as the dog
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: well the money is on the way
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: best of luck at the tables
K-Slim: i said, don't worry about it man
t_perkin 2+2 [observer]: laters
K-Slim: well, if it happens you'll find it back in yours one day
K-Slim: but thanks man, gl


Following that I won 3 SnGs in a row.

it's called community, it's called camaraderie, it's called superstition, but most of all, it's the feel good factor.

Excellent, excellent play Tim, and not just to finish 7th /images/graemlins/wink.gif
I love this, although it wasn't +EV by the way apparently.

Now watch him respect you're steals - lolololol - just kidding!
