Yes, I know you are sick of me and my reports but I started it so I wont stop now Long story short last night played final table of Big4,4$ (6,5k ppl entered) and finished 6th 807$ was prize and I do feel good and bad in same time. Good because its quite achievement. Bad because that was worst field on final table that I have ever seen. Not a single good player! But was so card dead that still makes me sick

Being card dead i'd be thnakful! It the field did have good players in you might of not even cashed.
Keep your chin up dude, making 183x your buy in is a very good result. Try to feel positive by thinking if you can do that with no cards, imagine your results if you actually ran good.
If your making yourself feel bad when you get a good result, I feel your making a negative impact on your mindframe when you should actually be happy.
Either way, keep on grinding my friend and im sure you'll snatch a good 1st or 2nd place. Peace!

Actually no, better than another thread about POKER IS RIGGED!!! with lots of
Keep 'em coming, you've paid your dues with many, many hours of solid and profitable play, and now that you are back at playing tourneys you are getting good scores. The rewards of hard work and thinking about the game instead of just clicking buttons and hoping Q4o flops well.

Posted by Weenie: jovica best MTT's player here?
Definitely, I think.
Congrats on other big Final Table place man!
And I understand your frusration too - nothing worse than busting early on a table of morons - knowing how huge an edge you had.. Either because you were card dead, or copping bad beats or whatever. But hey - as you know - that is the nature of MTTs - getting a top-3 place requires all kinds of luck: Need to avoid being card dead, your good hands need to hold up, you need to win flips, etc etc..
Congrats Keep it up - and no one is sick of the posts man, good to read that forum members here are doing well - keeps us inspired!

You can't say they weren't good players, after all they reached the final table passing that huge 6,5k field. Good job and nice prize. It's at those times that we realize how people play so different from what we are used to. Perhaps that's what turn them capable of reaching final tables.

Yes you can. Consider this: if you had a tournament with 10,000 players and all of them were terrible players, in fact - all of them had never even played poker before, 10 of them would still reach the final table. That doesn't make them good players.
Jovica's final table could have been made up entirely of losing players and himself for all we know. And I for one trust his judgement, if he reckons they were all terrible players, I believe him.

a few things worth noticing reading this thread: 1) mahdrof is so right- hearing good stories on people winning, sharing some insights, strategies is so much better than hearing same sh1t that poker is rigged 2) yes it seems that jovica is the best mtt player in the brm community at the moment...
