well we will see , would be fairly sucky if i dont get what i deserve as i am a legit player with legit id verification , they can even come and drink a cup of coffee and play a game of live poker with me if they like I must say i am really happy with my result even tho my screwups later on in game. this is more money than i have ever saved in my life which allows me to in 1x pay off my drivers license or 1 year of tuiton fee's
------------ My $255 sunday brawl ticket for next week is in my account 2 lets try to do a little better next week??

Just remember to tighten up if you get to the same stage with the same big stack like last night. I still think you could have won the whole thing.

Posted by Phisix: Your an idiot you could have reached the final if you did not play that crap hand earlier. Good winnings though congrats.
true...that bluff with ace on table are f disaster.Its be so obvious the guy have ace and not think fold,no matter of what came on turn and river
Aye when i saw his 10 -7 i thought wtf ????
------------ jeffaboy,congrats on your deep run and i know you got over 2k but you really should have got more,i'm not as good as a lot on here so i don't like saying things about peoples play but that 10-7 hand really got me .unlucky in the end but still a very good tourney for you and maybe next time you'll make the final table.

Hahahha i figured he had something and probably an ace , however the biggest disaster was the pot where i was forced to fold the river even though haven a decent hand , i was open ended and had a pair but missed the river which came about the worst card for me , couldnt get myself to call and then a4 finished me

It's important to point out that he made it as far as he did BECAUSE of his aggressive play (plus a little luck too....) not in spite of it.
You can't say he "should have won more".... I wasn't railing, but it seems he was lucky to even make the first break - but took full advantage of his luck by not being weak... and that attitude is what won him the cash. Will it work longterm? Likely not... But it worked this time, and if you can add a little more selection to your creative plays - picking the right time, spots, opponents.... Then you'll find yourself running deep a lot more.

Yeah but i saw that coming from miles and miles away on that flop still i got another ticket for next week and i know what i will do differently if i make another one of those insane sick run's and i also know what i will do the same
------------ People in chat who kept bitching why i call a 35k all in with 6-10 or j9 suit are bloody stupid why would i fold for 1/10 or 1/15 of my stack with a chance to knock out 1/2 people giving me 40-80$ if i hit plus this play has already secured me my ticket for next week

Hey yout,i'm not going to argue with you here,in the position he was in, he was chip leader with 300k in chips iirc,then imo he should have won more. i know he had a lot of luck in getting there but when he did he should have stopped writing his essay jeffa will get that.

Yeah i'm still learning finding the right spot to make a move is where i went wrong twice yesterday but it has been a learning moment for me , made a few misstakes here and there and got lucky a couple of times but also got outlucked on a few fairly nasty hands.
I could have busted early on but kept my cool , waited for the correct hands , shoved , trippled , doubled after and that is when my play got agressive because i was going after those bounty's
I have learned and noted my misstakes and will try to do even better next time however i am really glad to so much money in 1x.
------------ Lol by the time i busted i was long done writing my essay , maybe should of kept on writing
------------ Well there was like 6-8-a on the flop 2 spades , turn got another spade and i had the 7 of spades , point of losing here where it came down to i made a 50k river bet and he called so i féd up like 80k chips that hand

Congratulations to you jeffaboy. Looks like you had a very exciting evening!It seems like bounty hunters are a good choice of tournament with the way you play. I could be wrong but I don't know if I have seen a BRM member go that close in a big tournament like this. Im sure other members will know but I can't remember anyone winning as much as you did for quite a while either. Good luck for next week as well

I'm the last person you should listen to on matters like this.... (I am good at giving the advice, but bad at following it myself....)
But you CERTAINLY are not rolled for that tourney young man!
Don't make cheaper buy-ins boring - that's what will happen, and you'll be forced to play outside your roll forever if you want to "enjoy it" But you sure as hell won't enjoy the $10,000 downswing that goes along with it..
