Thanks everyone! It was a great jurney I can tell you that. 2 times had 3bb including once on FT and managed to get back and take it down. Was card dead at final table but at end had a nice rush. Had huge luck in final hand too. Guy that finished second bullied everyone entire game but when I got to heads up (with 7m he had 19m) destroyed him in few hands. Had huge luck in final hand. 8K8 flop I had KJ guy had 85 and after all in on flop got running flush Not feeling bad for him tho because he had that luck entire tourney.

It is a great result no matter what. Well done on your achievement. I really doubt i have what it takes to play a tournament for so many hours. 10 hours lol. I would have slept int the middle of it And with a 9k+ players.

Yow jovi,
Congrats on this impressive win. Buy-in of 11$ with 9K+ people and winning 1st place is an achievement which you can put on your poker resume. And maybe it's only a start. I bet you had luck on this tournament because getting to the final table and winning u need luck on your side, and the players too. But still it's a fascinating feeling to have seeing ur name on top with a 13K win. Wish you the best of luck in the following games. Now you can manage a new bankroll and move to higher stakes maybe.

Nive one JOVI...a nice little earner...... its a shame that someone challenged your integrity by questioning which part of Europe you came from, instead of just congratulating you. Does it really matter where you come from to win a nice prize like this?

Congratulations jovicakralj, it's so nice so read such bombastic news from a BRM member, specially an old regular like you! You are now in the BRM books as one of the best players around, at least one of the biggest known winners. $13k, that's a lot of money!!! I'm so happy for you, now i believe even more i can do something good with some of those FTP tickets i've got on my wallet, i just have to play them well, patiently and wisely.

G'day mate
I was just thinking about your great win and was wondering if you have any plans for how you are going to use the win fall yet. Yes I know I am being nosey. I would recommend you cash out $13K and keep rest as a nice bankroll to work with.

hey Jovi if you visit this thread once more, care to answer this question: why didn't you guys at the final table strike a deal (especially when 3-4 were left)? did anyone tried it? i guess if i was in the top 3-4 i would accept an ICM deal just to lower the overall risk...

nice performance. congrats, you made a great job. It's always nice to know that a "normal" player has won a tourney and not a pro or somebody that has won already a few hundred thousands. On Bankrollmob we should see such threads more often in the forum, so we (which didn't won such a big tourney) have the hope to make it like you. Good luck to all and enjoy playing

That was interesting. Guy that was huge chipleader (finished second) wanted a deal but there was two guys that didnt want it. And all others didnt even say a word. I asked from stars couple of months ago to revoke my chat rights. Did that because I notised that when I start to argue with donks I lose my focus and play bad. So I couldnt chat and ask or agree with any deal making in chat. I did check disscuss deal box tho but somebody did not till HU. When we was HU guy refused deal and thats it. I would probably take deal in any point except on HU.
