Last night i won for the 2nd time the ''$3K GTD'' on PKR, yesterday it was $765, first time it had more runners and won $1K. Very happy i was with the HU win cos the player gave me a huge fokin badbeat earlier on calling with absolute no odds wot crippled me too being uber shorty with 6 left. I crushed him HU and finally i cud call him loser (a very funny emote on PKR ) Anyway, not a real big boost for my roll, but its allways exited to win a tourney.

Wot wud u done? Easy call or hard laydown?
EASY call it wasn't IMO. VERY tough call, I think. All depends on the action at the table until then and your impression of the other two. Without that feel, it's a tough call on paper. Tight or not?
I like these hand examples, just some more info on the opponents would be nice next time. And # of runners in the tourney.

I just training myself as much as possible in low/middle stakes MTTs cos have a ticket for the masters ($250 buyinn), and want to play that with best skill as possible, its very deepstacked so migth suit me good. Anyway just the best tip i can give for playin MTTs is: ''Play to win NOT to get ITM'', i never look at the bubble, only when i expect the bubble is near i just check it, cos its very easy to steal lots at that time with simple raises and better reraises putting players tourney life at risk.
