Turning Stone Emp State - 1st tourney recap
 

Well, I only got the chance to play in one, but I made it count. 206 people in the shootout format - 21 tables. I played pretty well in my table and was 2nd in chips when I caught a 6-3-3 flop with my 6-3 in an unraised pot in the BB. Chip leader had J8 and almost went broke when the turn/river were J8 (I had slowplayed). I went on to win my table and move to the final 2 tables - 21 total

I played relatively tight and lost a chunk when my AT lost to JJ with a Txx flop. But I held on til the final table and the last 10 of us decided to chop. We each took hom $2,898. Cardplayer.com has the payouts, but they have it listed what we would have won w/out the chop (big difference). Anyone else play in that tourney?

So they just went to a standard 21-person MTT format after that? What did they do about chip stacks?

Congrats on the win.. represent the trout =)

Yeah, after that it was 2 tables - 10 and 11 and a regular tourney format. Chip stacks were even at 2,500 a piece and blinds reset to 25/50.
