Well with no expectations, today is the day I use my $ 109 Tournament ticket I won at Carbon Poker back in Dec. 02 / 11. It was finishing first in the $ 500 daily freeroll for 1st time depositers. Did pretty good in the 7 times I was allowed to play. 1 first, 1 second and 1 eighth
This is the $ 100,000 weekly and will be super tough. Have been waiting to be in the right frame of mind and without distractions, not that it will probably matter.
Anyways what will be will be. Under name of byng000

You sure did good with all these depositirs freerolls there. Dont let it stress you because its a big tournament. The only thing you should have is a good self control and play like you did in the depositors freeroll. gl and finish first at least

How about the 25K freeroll which is on the 26th I believe. That's a pretty good game to get in also. Never have played any of the $109 entries so I'll have to check it. Good Luck on your game(s) Mobsters!

OMG. KK utg+1 raise to 90 on blinds 15/30. next to act pops to 250. i feel it in my heart already but cmon. he could have QQ JJ or even KK not to mention AK but i dunno about that. I reraise to 460. He raised to 1k. OMG really? I am not good enough to make this kind of play. I hit him back to 2200. He shoves. whats that a 7 bet? i call. AA. just like it should be. Door card is a K WHAT. omg A is next.
The ten completes the flop.... Im laughing at my fortune. Sure glad its just a ticket. Bam Bam JQ turn and river......

Aw, sorry to hear that guys. I'm sure we can all relate to the excitement of winning that one big ticket and the anticipation of that life changing tournament. It's so much more depressing when you have a bad beat. Take a break, and then good luck on your next.
