I didnt know the whole thing about the professional players. Good info there. This also gives more chances to the recreational players, or semi pros if you like to get into some of the prizes. It must be a good experience for all, since you are playing live. A bit harder for some, if they havent practiced their poker face

You try your best and see what happens. Its not like your life depends on it. That takes some stress of your shoulders. So failing to make it, is just another experience in your life, one that cant even compared of course with just even participating on it, let alone winning on it.

i hope you can do that pokerking,i think that going by some of your results you're a decent player so i'm going to be positive and say you will reach the final 3 tables and you will hopefully be in with a shout of the final table itself. gl to you

well too bad you haven't won it, since i was pretty sure you will just crush, annihilate and obliterate the opposition, remaining players seeing your total domination would just run away leaving their stacks and be blinded out. but i guess you decided to leave your best game for next years wsop me.
losing against AA is no regret there for you, better luck next time I hope. Me too I would like one day have a Vegas experience even if it's not a poke one...

I'm really sorry that you failed PokerKing76 , but do not have many chances against AA, but certainly this was a great experience for you , good for you when you have a chance to go to such tournaments , I will never be able to go to a big tournament
Had a great time in Las Vegas. Will be there next year for sure
in the poker room two aces win ... not always visible in the live game this rule does not work)) of course very disappointing to lose but with a good map and so you had a good experience and a year later you may get more

Too bad it is over pokerking. You had a good run though, new experiences and you won something at the end.. Not what you are expecting from a live event i guess, but its always better than nothing. Congratulations and better luck next time.

The best of all is that you have great experiences and you was been in beautifull city, perfect Vegas, the best city on the world. Next year you will be better I suppose and you will have more lucky. I hate AA but you can beat this hand only on software poker.

Not sure about this, I could name three or four dozen other cities first without even trying hard that would be better candidates as being perfect and beautiful. Congrats PokerKing, hope you had a great time!

Heh you are lucky men mate But that's what I told here with two ace someone other will pay you with smallest pair in hand and got you, like you in this hand. It can be and 22 and you can beat aces but I told on the end poker is 90% lucky and then all other in this 10 percent..

Thanks all for your words.
First of all my objective was to advance on day 2. With the 30th stack my New objective was to finish at least 30th. What I did. I could made it to the last two table (top 20) but it's not like online poker. You can't see what's your position in the group. Maybe I was 16th when I go all-in.
Anyway, it was a great experience and I have 6 month to qualify for next year
And yes you have to go in Las Vegas one time in your life, 6 days is short, next year I'll try to get there at least 10 days
Hope we will get a story from another mob member in a poker event (wpt,wsop,ept)
man you are very cool to play in a tournament in Las Vegas ... you're just a young man, I would have played this tournament and if I lived in the country the United States but I unfortunately live in Russia ... good luck dravlyayu so what you vamgraltebe in later the following games ...
, but do not have many chances against AA, but certainly this was a great experience for you , good for you when you have a chance to go to such tournaments , I will never be able to go to a big tournament
