lol seems like Another_AT is an overall losing player based on what others are saying... and ive always thought to myself... a losing player winning the bad beat jack pot is a waste of money since them playing poker is -EV and they will lose. However, a winning player winning that jackpot just adds to his stakes and the rate at whcih he makes money. Don't know about the rest of you but id rather be a winning player because that can equate to alot more than 27k and you can continue to build on it, other than a losing player... cuz then you just lose the 27k and don't have the skill to do anything at that point. Either way though, that's totally awesome man, i hope the actual winner isnt just jumping in stakes in losing like others are saying Another_AT has done.

OK, so here is the deal. I wanted to have a private tourney for FCPers in the Toronto area and then go out to dinner tomorrow (Saturday May 28th) to celebrate my big win. It is probably too late for the tourney but there is a possiblity to have it Saturday afternoon. So, anyone interested in a FREE dinner and/or the tourney please send me a private message with your: Screen name, real first name, email address. (cell phone # is optional) Please specify if you are interested in meeting for dinner only (probably around 7:30), the tournament only (probably around 1:00) or both. The locations have yet to be decided but will be downtown and easily accessable by TTC.Once I have an idea about the numbers I can make a reservation at a restaurant and see how many people are available for the tourney. If we have 8 or more the tourney is on. Maximum is 22 for the tourney. For specifics about the tournament it will depend on the number of people. But, in any case, it will be a cheap buy-in, with the blinds going up reasonably & slowly (every 30 minutes). I just want a friendly tourney. Plus I will add some money to the prize pool. :-) Time permitting we might have a second tournament.Take care, owise1p.s. I'm thinking Chinese.

Alright to all who are dissing Another_AT's game, and his "bad call" to move to 15/30, 30/60, whatever limits YOU guys can't offord, listen up.4 Days prior to the time Another_AT hit the Badbeat he had started off with a 25 doller gift certificate from me. He then rolled that up with ease to a cool 1200$ through various tourneys and limit games, but this was no surpirse to me. At the time of the bad beat he was chip leader in a 400 person tourney, and was killing time inbetween hands with a couple low limit 2/4 badbeat. Our regular live game is at our local Casino playing 10/20 or 5/10, whatever we feel up too. So too all who think AT will blow the 24,000 grand, i say quit talkin, hit the 15/30's and pay my rent fish, swing by our place and check out our Bank roll, challenge us to any limits heads up, drinks our on us, cause when you leave, youll have no money.peace.P.S- since playin 15/30 Another_AT's bankroll has done nothing but get bigger.....no surpirseGo fish. FISHMUCK ME HARDI read books
