I don`t like the structure of the tournament it sucks... The blinds are going up so quickly so its a push/fold game. May the lucky ones win lol Im card dead at the moment, hope to get AA 15 times in a row
update: I am soooo card dead I`m not getting cards above 10 so that is pretty sick, and because the structure is so lol Im down to 20 BB hope to shove someone over to acumulate some chips

Nice going Pkr_night!
I went out just inside the bubble. Then I played the Double Deuce satellite and got my ticket. Not gonna play it though. I´m fed up with Rush after this week.

Beat 100$ [x] yeah I`ve busted out 73rd with a standart steal situation where any 2 were good to shove Umm U questioned my decision on one hand where I called with a crappy ace well I`ve got good pot odds to do so 2:1 so that is pretty standart. And yeah I made a few sick bad beats like where I pushed J8 hoping to get all folds because I was a nit earlier, but I got a call frop Q Q and AA and I beat em both lol
So yeah my strat was pretty simple wait for premium hands and play them till the end. And at the last period of time when blinds were extremely big I was card dead getting rags after rags after rags... That frustrated me a lil bit.
So far played 3 BLT tournaments and cashed in all of em
If u have any questions about my game feel free to post
And btw I don`t like the structure of this tournament, because it involves a loooot of luck, at every period of time I was severely short stacked >10BB which is bad imo, because there is no room left for post flop play, where I am best at so yeah
And one of the last hands were pretty sick too
77 vs 10 10 vs JJ vs my KK river 10 and a 1,5M Pot goes to some dude so that was really one of the signs that I will bust out

Well in the beginningI always waited for premium hands, and doubled two times, then my AA got beaten and card, but ended in the money. With the 8-J, I completely understood your play, expect with the A7, as in that hand you were likely to get dominated, but on the other hand you didn't risk a lot, so not a bad play either, and indeed the odds. At the end I couldn't double anymore and when this one guy raised 4 blinds I put him on a big pair, but only had 4 blinds so AJ was good enough, was in the mone anyway and blind was coming.

Yeah like I said the structure is bad at this tournament because it involves a lot of coin flips etc. where skill has nothing to do with it Thanks for the support Its not my biggest cash, but it is still pretty nice.
every table a bigstack on my left with a few others all so on my left and all the sit outs on my right I had absolutely no chance but play all pots out of position so frustrated. With an donkey end

well yeah I wasn`t too pleased with my positions also, 70% of the time one of the bigstacks was to my right ( even when I was in the top 50 which was pretty sick ), so I missed tons of stealing opportunities, and maybe I`ve been a little scared to play back reshoving bigstacks... That was my main leak imo
All in all I`m OK with my play regardless of being card dead I`ve managed to keep a stack around 10BB at all time. It`s strange that MTT`s are not my main game Because I usually cash in them, but I don`t like to play ~4h I get tired and bored really quick.
And yeah I`ve just realised that I`ve beat 42k+ players But I really played for the first, and now I`m kinda Tilted that I didn`t made the final table
i wasnt bothed playing this tourney had to take my girlfriend to the pictures to see inception, be moaning at me all week to see it,taxi was here for us so i just went mad and pushed all in, i shouldnt of join it cause the tourney was too long had no time,
