I don't think Pinotte is publishing the result this week,I have not seen it anyway-so here it is!! Not a great week for the regulars,apart from Marquis who got into the money and the machineQC,who kept a good stack during most of the game and was unlucky not to win after a long heads up battle.

How can you say it was not a good week for the regulars. I see three in it, and i have seen worst than that so far. Machine did the best job of course, with that second place. Better luck to all of you in the next one.
Yeah it was a very long HU!! Terrorfight played well. I must've won about 75% of the HU hands, but he won every hand (and races) when his tournament life was on the line. Late in a tourney you just can't afford to ever lose 2 big hands in a row
GG Demo, Klash and Marqis. Demo got sucked out bad for his whole stack when he had around 10k chips, I was on his table when he busted.
Finished 10/10000 on 888 poker2 days ago and that's exactly what happened. Very healthy stack all tournament long despite the hyper structure and in the end I had to call a shove (blinds 70k 7k ante he shoved 425k) with 1010, guy hits trip queens with QJ off suit. 2 hands later I get KQ, get my 350k remaining chips in... 2 callers (AQ and 88), got my K on the flop but AQ got his broadway on the river and he was the only one that had me covered!! I wish that pair of kings would've held cause the shove was standard I just couldn't do anything about any of these 2 situations besides do the standard play

Well done guys. I played like a kid in a sweet store for three hands and blew out with some random high pair against a load of junk AK.......makes me feel far better with that approach to stupid play. Looking forward to next time when I will take it far more seriously.

Hey Mober....I meant that most forum regs seemed to have been knocked out quite a while before the prize pool,three in the cash is not bad. hey marquis....I was in the same boat as you but I managed to get some great hands when I was nearly dead,though for the first hour or two my best hands were 44,55 and AQ and everything else was junk then I got KK,QQ,AK in the space of 5 or 6 hands!! I watched quite a bit of the HU and I did think the machine would win but terrorfight is pretty good and always seemed to make some good decisions and win when it mattered the most.
