Yeah I'm guessing -- at this point did you just decide to wait it out and see how many places you can gain?

If your bankroll needs the boost, fair play to you. Sometimes an extra hundred is a very nice thing =)

I was so card dead at the end. Q/3 was the best thing I saw. J/8 and I can't even begin to count the 6/3offs etc... it was tough having the monster stack to my left. Pkt 44 was the best I saw any pair, any ace any 2 painted, but nothing....so I went with it and unfortunately ran into aces. My best payout thus for though! 62x my money.

Its a nice score, especially for a small bankroll like you mentioned. However, if you ever want to make it to the top 3 or even top 5, you're going to have to push with a much looser range of hands before you get blinded down so low. That said, by waiting around you definitely moved up from a possible 10th finish to 7th? I think and probably made a few hundred dollars extra.

Yeah and the thing about that particular big stack is that he was raising/calling with some really bizarre hands -- so you really did kind of need to pick up something legitimate.

Oh well. Congrats! Tough luck running into rockets at the end there. Well done regardless.

The dude, ragsonrags, who was down to 9k with 10/20k blinds with like 14 left, has come back and is chipleader by a ways heads-up. Sometimes the cards just break your way -- sometimes they don't.

wow, I quit watching as I had to get up in 4 hours for work...the cards got me to the final table, but I just couldn't put my life on the line with Jx or Qx. Thanks for the sweat. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]
