YESSS !! Guy raised with K10 and I'm back to 100K chips. Nice...
------------ Trying to be a bit agressive, but just not hitting anything at all and going to be a bit more careful for a while until I can corner some smaller stacks. Too many huge ones out there. Dangerous waters....

Posted by lukasb: Well just busted out on the $3.30 one. 887/17000 for $11 Not bad considering it was a free ticket but won't be a millionaire tonight lol
Next Sunday.
------------ -------- Wow. Gone completely card dead again, and the blinds are going up fast... A lot of raising/shoving. Can't call with a 52o or a 83o.
------------ BB and I get 52o. Going to fall below 10 BB all of a sudden.
------------ -------- SB 42o. Ouch. Going to need a change here fast or it's over.
------------ ------ 5th Bubble. $156 150.000 stack BB 30.000 ante 3.750 I'm dog meat.
------------ -------------------
All Over !
The last hour was just horrible. The highest card I got was a J2o. Unbelievable. 42o 84o 93o 52o...it wouldnt stop.
Was down to 1.5 BB and saved my butt twice with 88 and 99 against 2 shoves before me each time, which I called of course. 3 in the hand and I won twice.Best cards I'd seen for almost one and a half hours. That hurts. Last cards were KJ (wow!) which I had to shove of course, and lost to a flopped Full House. Game over.
Finished 690th out of 65.000 players for $156. Dreams of a final table shattered in the final hour.
I did have fun. Just very frustrating when Lady Luck abandons you completely at the end. Nothing could have saved it, people were raising and shoving almost every hand. No chances to steal blinds, nothing at all.
Oh well, we'll try it again next time. Going to sleep. Goodnight, and may the cards be with you.

From what I saw, you played pretty well. You were patient and chose your spots. It blows my mind how fast people started dropping after the first bubble. So dissapointed I busted so early, but like you said it's hard to make any moves without at least somewhat of a hand. Definitely frustrating watching your stack dwindle, waiting for a spot that never comes
Still, you made it the farthest out of all us brmers, and 690th out of a field of (I think) 64000 players, especially in a tougher field like that, is nothing to be ashamed of.
I really do think that the field of competition was overall a lot better. I kept waiting for the 5-6 way all in fest at the start, and it just didn't happen. When people 3-bet, they actually hand a hand lol. Was so nice to play a tourney without donks.

Posted by retribution: I thought I had cleared this up in the previous thread. But oh well, here's a screeny of my balance a day or 2 after, after I took a few "shots" at bigger stakes haha. At least I had the self control to stop after I tilted off a bit. Promptly withdrew the majority, left a few K on to keep playing with.
Then blackfriday happened
Hmmmmm, not saying you did but fotoshop is allways your friend imo.
Ok here is the deal:
Unlock your sharkscope (very simple) and if your right i giv my honest apologize and you be famous BRM hall of fame.
Imo its very simple to do this, now many people think its not true, i know you dont giv a sh*t but why not unlock

Imho not unlock = not happen
This is a pretty obvious and simple solution.
I honestly can understand wanting to keep it quiet. But then just don't mention it at all. Mentioning something like "I won $100K" and then just never supporting that claim is just weird.

Dude, I am probably the LEAST skilled person in the entire WORLD when it comes to picture editing. If you've ever seen my "Online poker is rigged" parody video, you'd know what I mean. In fact, B1gfoot offered to do my website banner pic because the one I had done was frankly horrible.
I assure you, that picture was NOT photoshopped in any way shape or form, it's the real deal. Really don't care if you believe me or not. If FT ever comes back online, I'll gladly post a screenshot of my tourney history.
I'm not sure what exactly you expect me to "unlock".

Can people not see the pic posted? What more proof do I need. Keeping my name quiet isn't entirely my choice, and even if it was, I've posted a pic clearly showing my balance is. Either accept that as proof, or piss off for all I care. Call me a liar if you want, it won't hurt my feelings any. It's just text on a screen.

Its like Jess said, if wanting to stay quite then dont bring it up. Now you did bring it up and refuse to give your fulltilt nick.
So yes imho just a liar, just some big mouth wanabee claiming winning $100K but dont give facts then you back out. Shame on you
