Top 5 once again currently in the Tourney I killed last night.
Cant believe the run good that continues for your boy TheIrish77.
Hopefully we'll make another run at this thing.
Can it happen 2 straight nights ? We'll see.
Be back with updates throughout.
------------ ITM Now and still with a top 10 stack. How crazy would it be to take down the same run back to back ? What are the odds on something like that?
Well just hit the break and in 7th spot with 176 remaining. In great spot for more profit today If i can make this another epic run.
Need a little bit of air before we come back.
------------ out in 81st. Things just went haywire and lost majority of chips then get AK and shove and lose to JJ vs 55 and they hold up.
Profit but not much of one even though only 1 bullet fired off.
On to the next one i guess.

It is still another good run and anytime you make a profit is a good time. To get so far in the same tournament two nights running is very impressive and you must be building up your bankroll very nicely

You didnt follow you last good result, but it was one in profit also. So at the end you just grew your bankroll a bit more. Fingers crossed to have the same results when you raise you buy ins

Back in 2004/05... can't recall exactly when... I used to play an £11, £3,000 Gtd tournament on William Hill most nights. One week I remember winning it on a Monday for £990, coming 2nd on the Tuesday for £600, then winning it again on the Wednesday for £970.... the two times I won I beat the same guy heads up.... with around 320 runners every night. That was pretty insane

Congrats ,that's incredible I've also had a similar streak. In 2011-2012 loved to play triple stud tourneys on Pokerstars, and once won three of them in a row. In one of them we made a deal when 2 pls were left. There were about +/- 100 participants in each. Games were much softer than now

(Most of the time) drawing hands, such as Ace Queen, Jack Ten, or Nine Seven suited, need improvement for them to prevail postflop. It's really frustrating when a big hand like Ace King fails to improve after the flop.
