Well we are on our 1st break and I have not as of yet played a single hand. I have been card dead since the very 1st hand. Hope other mobsters who are playing in this tournament are doing much better. wishing you all the best. Hope someone from BRM makes the final table. be cool

We are on another break and I have managed to double up my chip stack. There is still 4900 players left in the tournament and I am currently in 2876 place over all. Just getting very few playable cards. The deck has been real cold so far. Really I have only had 2 good hands and I made them both count. be cool

I couldn't think of a BETTER way to spend the evenin' there in N.B. on a snow stormy night like I see you guys are having...! I see you guys got whacked with like nearly TWO feet of snow....
I've had ENOUGH of it already....!!!
I see you're almost there....4,000 of 14,000 remaining at this point,...and you are fairly decently stacked....!!!
9th place money isn't too shabby... $700+,...but man, that 1st place money looks nice for a $3.30 buy in...

Still very card dead which I have been most of this tournament. we are now on break and I got $74079 in chips 359 players left out of 14964. right now at this moment I short stacked as the chip average is 208 412. If I went out right now, I would make $16.61 hoping to get some good cards soon and run much deeper into this tournament. Hard to believe it has been going on for 5 hours 30 minutes. be cool

just browsed through the thread- looks like you had a great run there Ronin, considering that you were running card dead most of the time you really squeezed out most of the juices there. sure it's always disappointing to go out (even in 2nd, since there was 1st on the cards) but a great performance overall best of luck in the future
