etip 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 Just for the record, the turn gave me 8 outs... any 6 or 10... double gutshot, not that it matters anyway, I was all in on the flop when only runner-runner could save me. :oops: Anyway, it was a great tournament w/ a great structure and I had a blast, congrats to AlexR, and thanks again, DC.

AlexR 0 Posted September 26, 2005 Share Posted September 26, 2005 First off, Thanks to DC for a great tournament all around. Anyone who left before it was down to five handed would have been amazed that I won. I truly folded almost every hand for the first few hours. With 5 players left I was sitting on just over 8,000. I got my chips in in a good spot, 77 vs K7 to get up to around 16,000. Then got incredibly lucky a few hands later by hitting a semi-bluff all in straight against top pair and a flush draw. A few hands later I doubled up again on the QQ vs 99 hand. This left me down only 14,000 going into heads up (roughly 63,000 to 77,000). It was an amazing, and quite lucky comeback. I am looking forward to the next tourney. Thanks again DC. Link to post Share on other sites
