So ive managed to hit 5 final tables in 2 days now =). Pretty decent money with one seventh, two fifth and two second place finishes. The second place kindda sucks because yesterday i had a guy all in with pocket aces vs his Q3 pre and he hit trips and now today i was holding KK vs 99 all in pre and he hit his 9. But I guess i should be pretty happy anyways since im making ok money =).
edit: and no i havnt been waiting for cards on the final table ive been playing as aggressive as possible its just that the oppurtunities presented themselves to me =)

Congratulatopns. Seems to me you are on the road for a profitable career. I wander you won not so much money as you would, but it's only a matter of time

Thx mates. Hit another one earlier today =). 9 place though. Its not big money since ive been playing pretty smallstakes. 5-10 dolla mtt´s ftw I´m not sure about the forumrules regarding sites that arnt listed here. But its a site with no rakeback at all, no bonuses what so ever. The only reason im playing there is because its the easiest / fastest way for me to deposit and withdraw money. Also im doing fairly well there atleast atm. Normally ive been playing at nordicbet .
Im hitting a 30dollah mtt with about 300 players later today. Ive cashed pretty big there before so im hoping to win some money today. Hope the luck / patience keeps up =). ill update with results in a few hours.
cyas
edit: also manuedo im not really a very profitable player. i mean i do win money but not nearly enough to make a living. its just a hoby =)

i guess i have my days. but im far from a "great" player. i tilt, i get mad, i lose money when im pissed etc. all the regular stuff =).
213 players in the 30 dollah tourney im playing now. i started out misserably =). but im still here
3000 starting chips and 15 min blinds.
1 hour down and im at 3400 chips -.-. Was down to 1700 but AA vs an extremely aggressive player saved the day =)Blinds are 150/75 after the paus so it still feel like I´m in the game. Gotta love doubling up the last few minutes before the breaks .
its over mates :/. Had JJ preraised it 3xBB utg and 1 smallstack limped. Nothing on the flop so i played ftw and he hit two pairs . Next hand i was BB with K10 suited 1 smallstack limped and the flop hits 2710 (2 spades). I bet 2/3 of the pot and he pushed with about double that amount so i called him and he was holding A10. I went 2 hands hafter that when im on the button and hit AJ suited, now my stack was down to 1200 and an extremely aggressive dudes raises to 450. i called it for some reason thinking I had him cold. I would have gotten away if a third dude hadnt raised us both all in and i felt i was commited to the now threeway all in pot with only 750 left. The first guy had AK and fairly hit his K on the flop. GG
