Hey Boys and Girls It's your boy TheIrish77 back on his grind today and off to a decent start.
Playing the Splash 1.10+R $ at the moment and making some head way in this thing. Only did add on as i registered with about 12 minutes to go and then my add on at current break i've only invested 3.30 for this run. Really good for a rebuy tourney.
Am now sitting in top 20 and with the add on soon approaching will have in excess of 130K. The leader will have around 225k after they add on so not too far out.
There's more than 1370$ up top currently so a nice payday for the winner.
If you want to rail the id is in the GIF below.
Wish me luck guys.

Nice to hear you got another deep run. 22 out of 1770 is indeed a great result, but it's also a very bad moment to make costly mistakes as the jump in pays are about to get a lot bigger at this point in the tournament. Of course we're always going for first place so playing agressive is necessary but being agressive can also cost a lot of chips when your opponents hit every flop.
too bad you did make the final table mate as you were sitting nicely to be there but as we all know in poker everything can change in fraction of seconds... but at the end of the day you finished winner but not with the amount you would wish though. Better luck next time
an excellent result ... I congratulate my friend to a good start of the year and I wish you to win this year more than last year .. I do games results are not very good but maybe I'm just still not regained consciousness by celebrating povogo Godi and my head is bad working?

Another fantastic run for TheIrish and 2017 is continuing like 2016 did. To get into the money in these tournaments is extremely difficult so to finish as high as you did is an achievement to be very proud of. Well done again

Why would getting ITM be extremely difficult in these tournies, hm? Top 15% getting payed. Pretty damn standard in my opinion, certainly not unreachable.
