Watching FT would be one hell of a download. Considering they're flying the FT off to Tahiti to play it live.

Re: 7th break
 

Well,

I final tabled it and will be going to ... Tahiti sometime next month. It was a good tourney for me, but the last hour I went completely card dead and am in 9th position chipwise.

I owe the final table to a monster laydown where there was an all-in raise and a caller and I held AK. With only one competitor, pretty much a no brainer, but with the second guy in there, I decided I would let it go with nothing invested. They

Hand 1 - KK
Hand 2 - QQ

The flop came an Ace and I was sick at the huge pot. River came a Queen and I could not believe my eyes and good fortune.

I dunno where this gets broadcast, but I will once again shout out to the Brown Trouters.

Very, very nice, good luck and enjoy Tahiti.

Re: 7th break
 

Congrats on making that final table!

It was a long long day wading through almost 2000 players to get there.

wish I was going with you.

You must've been severly card dead prior to busting, I watched you play from around T75k or so and even with odds against short stack pushes, there was no call....must've sucked [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]

Re: 7th break
 

Yeah, it was pretty frustrating. I had a couple of push/calls towards the end, once with 77 and the other time w/AT against a shorty (doubled him up). Mostly, when I made a move I caught a piece or overcarded.

When it got down to 2 tables, I had a couple of blinds hold, one or two walks and caught QQ to back down an all-in from the button. As it reached the bubble, I knew the guy who went out was going to either bust or influence a bust as he was too aggressive for the situation.

One bad thing about the software is that it doesn't balance chips/tables well. At one point when there were still 7 or 8 tables, our table had 5 of the top 10 chipleaders. It was insane.

Thanks David and Scott; worse case scenario is I get a tan.
