Hey, it ain't much, but just won the AP $1000 freeroll.

Paid $100 for 1st.

I do tourneys rarely, and this is my first win with
over 100 entries. (2000 signed up)

woot!

I came second out of 6177 in the Bet365 $5k freeroll for a $512 profit. Last hand with about even chips I went all-in with QJ on a J-rag-rag flop. Guy called me with J8 and got an 8 on the turn. Most expensive tourney bad beat for me this far. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

No, about $16.00 HR, just over 6 hours.
Thanks for the thought.

Would have been thrilling at $2.50/hr tho, today
was my "blow it off" day. Any profit is good.

Ignore him. Any time I get to the final table I am happy, even if the prize only is a satellite entry. And getting knocked out of a MTT happens so often that you should be allowed to be happy when you aren't.

Thanks. And congrats on your 2nd.

good job!! remember to add in the time it took in the qualifier tourney too.

I have won that tourney once and it is a good feeling. I made a final table tonight at absolute. It was a private tourney and everyone at the final table got a whopping 5 bucks except for the winner...he got 10 bucks. Ah what the hell it is still free money. Just you can go to the 1/2 game and I can't.
