Congratulation for your win a $109.00 entry fee for a live tournament is a very nice prize. I think you have played at least once at the Playground Poker Club.
I have been there once and it is a very nice place to play. I wish you all the luck and hope you will make it for day 2. You already prove that you could make it in a live tournament lately just do the same today.

Good luck PokerKing. Great news that you won the ticket for nothing, other than using social media.... A great way to win stuff. Have fun and enjoy your experience. Keep us posted with how it goes as I am sure we will all be excited to see how it all goes down for you. Make sure you bring home the bacon.

We are hoping that you will have the same luck in the tournament, like you did with the draw and won the ticket All the best with it finishing at least in the money. With free entry, every prize will be a profit now, but go for the final table

You had some bad luck there. But with the hands you have posted and lost, we can see some of the "classics" happening in online poker. Who wouldnt complain about losing with AA against KT playing online Better luck next time.

Yup can't complaint anymore with that lol
Could not build a stack in 3h30 of play, need to finih in top 30 to pass to day 2. Out around 117.
I play most of the time at the same table and when they broke our table it take 10 minutes to end my tournament
second time that happen to me. Next time I fold the first hand and go to the bathroom LOL
On my way home I stopped to play a $60 Progressive Bounty ($20 for bounty) 30 players + 6 rebuys... Finished bubble but won a bounty of $85 so $40 in my pocket. Could won at least $185 if it was not so late. (played a total of 9 hours in 2 tournaments)
Maybe it's time for a little break , watching some good movie and TV series
