Well done dude. We are all pulling for you. Keep that stamina going for just a while longer. I hope that 1st is worth it. That is a long time to be sitting on your *** but just the reward of that final satisfaction is going to be pretty cool for you, although the roll won't hurt either lol

Congratulatins mate for your success and the very nice payout. But 15 minutes blinds at start and then 30 minutes is really CRAZY. I once played a tournament with 15 minrues and that took alot of patience - but 30!!
Congrats vsemoje, next time you will be the... Oh so, it won't be next time. Yeah 10 hours are really-really hard to pull off with the same mindset you started the tourey, but deep stack toureys hardly done by a managable timerate so I'm sure you kinda knew what this will impose on you.

I have never played a tournament that took so long. With no doubt at some point I would have messed up the game no matter what. I don't have the patience to play that long. I like the game but not that much. Not even the prize could hold me in

well done my friend noticed you at 12 people left and was watching for a while but as u said it takes damn long, people just folding and folding, was like 300k chips lowest out of those 12 players left when i saw and BB was around 8.000 chips...
Awesome, too bad it wasnt one of those first 3 places. But i think you will be on FT again pretty soon
I would recommend you the 1$ rebuy 40.000$ GTD turney that is each day around 20:15, i think you would do awesomely there aswell. But without doing rebuys except the 30.000 at addon period if you fail u fail at start and try another day otherwise u might rebuy too much, i rly think you would do well there.
my longest turney was around 7+ hours and that s**t took way way too long already. I like the 5min / blind+ ones or less the most.
