Brad gave the hightlights but I now have 20k at the 3rd break. Only 10 to the money.

AA vs AK was nice and the A2s suckout helps.

Missplayed a blind defence horribly and cost me ~8k in chips.

Will be happy to make the money but the potenial for real money makes getting deeper that much more inviting.

hotdog has just hit 60k on table 109...i'll leave him to outline 1 or 2 of his recent dramas...

Well had zero playable hands near the bubble so just sat back. Guy to my left has been stealing a lot.

Bubble passes and Guy on my left raises. I have a mediocre ATx and think maybe he will laydown and the pot looks nice. I push and he thinks and thinks and thinks and calls with and equally medicre but somewhat better AJx.

Also had a nice TT hand vs a Short stack A4x I think that held up.

Turned a T to stay alive at ~ 50K once my blinds pass again.

The amazing thing is that I'm barely over 10BB and sitting in 43/140 remaining. Lots of short <10BB stacks.

on an aside...fossilman's just bought 10% of elmerfudd for $800. Don't see an issue with stating that as the deal was done through chat...

As good a tip as any i would guess...

Well that was short lived. SS 15/15 with 136k or so left. MP raised to 120K, I pushed my AJx he called with TT and I am out in 15th.

Still a 3.5k payday but oh the potential. A few suckouts along the way but it was fun. Lost only a handful of hands all day. The key was the JJ vs AQx.

Good night All!
