it's not that I'm playing aggressive. I'm playing quiet timid for my play style. won 76% of my showdowns, and alot of them where pretty strong hand wich I checked down, to trap but didn't work. Think people picked up on that and rather don't play a pot with me. Also the pots I lost was usually with ak, kk etc.

Well, i'm out on 36654. I was at 15k+ made a bad call on turn ( it wasn't really bad ) but river came, and he won. i was down to 3k at some point. No russian at my table. AJ came, and i go all-in. And someone with 6k call me. I think he was an undercover russian. He called me with 7 8 ...and he won ofc. Well that was it. No money anymore.

I have had a pretty decent micromillions this time.. 15 events and i'm up 100$. Couple of deep runs helped a lot. I am so glad i managed to make profit this time because last micromillions series was just awful.

I went out before the 4th break. Very stupid play by me, had 2 pair. The way the villain played I knew he had a set, but my note's on him said overplays any pair, so I couldn't fold. But he had the set that time.

Well as it was with me results didn't really follow your efforts mate better luck next time for you as well. I kept my expectations low from the beginning not to get frustrated if things went a bit sour so I must say, even thou results were utter crap, I still enjoyed playing in those events.
Now I'll just hope my roll holds up till the next one to try again ... Best of luck for you as well till then

see you on the final table!
Hey, I'm sorry but my cash has still not hit my visa. I'm pissed myself that I still can't play properly again. I'm hoping (and am pretty sure) for it to hit tomorrow. Will ship ASAP when I can deposit it.

You guys look like you had some fun but also some bad luck in the MicroM Illinois events. I missed the whole lot of this one due to hols, but will definitely join in the next one and hope we all have the luck we all truly deserve.
