Congratulations to you on doing so well in not just one tournament but two. It is very difficult to cash in any of these events but to win one and cash in the other is an achievement to be very proud of indeed

Should've been more patient in the other one!! Could've made FT if I played better with 20 players left but I was kind of card dead for a while. Also had 2 chances to bust some very short stacked bounty twice but I didn't get it.
Very strange action by one of the bounties .At some point the blinds were 3k and she (the bounty) had 3900 chips and folded her BB... lol and apparently not everyone was aware that she was a bounty because SB folded when she shoved a 1.5BB stack at some point... She basically blinded out a 20k stack by not playing for about an hour with high blinds and antes. She wasn't playing to win like she should with a bounty on her head... I'm not complaining since I could've taken advantage of it if I got lucky, but it was sooo weird to me like she wasn't even trying to win to keep her bounty.

Nice win there and prize money, congratulations. Your task next time, wont be that easy with the bounty on your head . Everyone will try to knock you out even with crappy cards, but you never know. You will need more luck than this time All the best.
Today I played some tickets on 888poker, managed to make 6 dollars out of some Blast tickets and then turned that 6 dollars into 28 playing pot limit omaha. I'm gonna start managing it a bit more like a bankroll now
Also I have tons of these big bang and blast off tickets I should start using them before they expire ^^

also I have a lot of tickets for the big bang and blast , only to say honestly this is ridiculous with these tournaments , people in these tournaments do not play poker , there is a game of bingo,all play just all in not poker playing in tournaments

Yeah, I was card dead for about an hour, then got KQ on the button. It was folded to the cut-off position on my right. I had 24000 chips and he had about 50000. He raised to 2.5x BB, I shoved 12BB, he called and showed KJ... I hit my Q on the flop but then he hit the nut straight on the turn.
Atleast I cashed, but I would've loved to finish first and keep my bounty though

Great stuff TheMachineQC..... Winning a bounty and keeping it to the end of the following weeks game is a tough challenege, as you found out. There is a similar promo on PartyPoker for uk members..... There's possibly one for Canadian members too cos they usually copy over the continents. Take a look see!

Playing a game with a bounty on your head is with no doubt much more difficult than a normal tournament. Every one was a shot on you for some extra money, so the moment they see you, automatically their cards spectrum gets wider Congratulations on cashing again.
