Brilliant work; and a real pleasure to watch. It was a clinic on how to manage a big stack. I would love to see the rogues gallery of hands that you raised with during that final table run. I assume that at least some of them added up to more than 10? [img]/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

Congratulations MLG. I am glad a 2+2er won a big one because of all you have been so helpful to me. Once again congratulations.

Mike, congrats again, and just so you know, I had a great time being a rail bird, your PF-raising fest was just hilarious.

The only thing I didn't get about the deal was the way you were running over the table I don't think they would last another hour. BOSS was the only player that showed some resistance, and that was after you were HU.

Congratulations! Thanks for all the great detail for those of us who missed it.

MLG i downloaded PS to watch you abit when you were down to two tables. I must say, you played them like a fiddle, you literally were raising almost every hand and they just wanted to fold their way into in. awesome job and couldn't happen to a better player.

Well, I'll be the first to say I don't always play well. I didn't know Littleben, but he was the only player who offered up any resistance at all during the last two tables. He was a constant thorn in my side when there were 11-15 players left. However, at 10 he got balanced to the other table which is what let me steamroll my way to the final table with 1.3 mil. I thought he was the only person at the final table who was really playing well.

If its the hand I think, I raised from the SB, the BB called and the flop was 355. I c-raised the BB with A6o. I like play poker. Poker is nice.

I won it in August as well. This one was more fun though. In the other one I was a shortstack and just managed to hang on, winning every hand that I was all-in and had at least a 40% chance of winning. Then I got a hot run of cards at the final table. This one, I rolled through the end as a big stack. Big stack poker is fun fun fun.

heh. the only MTT i've taken down was a 5+1 with 200+ entrants. and that one i was all-in as SB with 95 and two paired against QJ, managed to win every all-in after that.

but that was great poker.

how much are you taking down a year? 50k+?

MLG,

Again congrats it was great to watch. Reminded me very much of the best I've ever played in tournament poker. I would dare to say we play a very similar game and it is very encouraging to see it take you to the top of such a large field.

You and your posts have had an immeasurable impact on my game and its great to see this happen to someone I hold in such high regard.
