ok was looking through the fpp sat games to use a few fpp on ... most didnt seem like good value and then i spotted the 25fpp rebuy for the $55 omaha game on saturday ... so reg for it having 92ish fpp well used two rebuys and then ran very well and got to the end of the 90min rebuy period in 1st spot and well stacked .. unfortunately went to buy the 30k chips addon and found i had only 23fpp left and needed 25 ... bummer ... 30K extra chips would have being nice and also not getting them allowed some of the others to gain on me
now after the rebuy ended game got pretty agg again with short and medium stacks just going for it but i held my own but was even with some other stacks got the hand below then and after a raise and a re i decided to go for it with my K,K and both called ... and then i saw the bad news ... lad had A,A and one of my Ks lol thought it was curtains for me until i saw a out .. and was screaming at my laptop for a 4 lol lol and got it to win massive pot and propell me into the chip lead ...
Down to the final 5 lost a chunk to that guy when i re him all in with A,A and he call with some rags and hit two pair 8s and 9s on flop ... but i suppose it was justice seeing as i taken more off of him ...
had one more big hand when a lad raised to 125k and all fold to me and i had A,Q,10,2 double suited in the BB ... after thinking about it decided to call as was back chip leader and if the flop was bad could fold and still hold first spot ... flop A,10.* all clubs but having a A,10 was good enough for me so i put him all in and he call K,K,5,5 no clubs and i won the pot and was a massive chip leader with over 800k chips ...
after that was final 3 with two getting a ticket and 3rd getting only 200fpp but was plain sailing as both of them were short ...
so few hands later was the owner of a $55 ticket for the omaha game which i unregestered from and have them as tourney Dollars instead ... al for 75fpp which i think is greatttttttttttt value lol...
anyway that is my happy story of the Day ... run good all ty ty
