Help Me! (Bodog 250k Gauranteed)

I am the chip lead with 30 players left, nine get paid. I do not normally play MTT's. Can someone who plays there take a look and let me know if I should be able to fold my way into the money? I would greatly appreciate it, I am in over my head.

No you're not.

You just busted me out when my top two lost to your set of threes, and you played them perfectly.

No way you should try to fold into the money yet, though.

Go easy and avoid big confrontations with other big stacks.

Good luck with my chips.

No problem. I never got any cards, and when I did, I played them poorly. I just wasn't on top of things at all, so if it hadn't have been you, it would have been someone else.

All things considered, I don't think I can lay my hand down on the end there, especially since I needed to double up to have any chance whatsoever.

Anyway, I would definitely suggest not letting savage see any cheap flops, cuz that's what he's all about.

Win the thing.

EDIT: No offense intended to savage, of course, and no impropriety intended either. He's a big boy and can certainly take care of himself.

It was definitely the correct call, just unlucky. Thanks for the advice.

Yes.

You and I went toe to toe once, with a flop of KKJ with two diamonds, right? You picked it up with a river bet.

Anyway, I played poorly, the cards were nasty to me, and, as I said above, I just plain never felt comfortable. Every decision was close, and my frame of mind always swung me over to weak-tight.

Arg. Bad all around.

Who busted you and how?
