Thats a great result winning that ticket. And the game with such a buy in must have a huge prize for the first place, and it is a knockout tournament also. All the best reaching as close as possible to the first place. And why not taking it down. Good luck.

Auch. At least you have the experience now to show for it - that you played something with a 1k buyin... Being carddead was not your fault to be honest. Keep your head up and keep grindin'
a wonderful result ....... I wish you luck in the upcoming tournament ........ and I hope to see soon the message that something has won some serious money ......... ... of course there will be many who wish to win ........... but I believe that you will succeed in showing a good result ....... good luck

Yes very big buyin tournament yoi play, 1050 dollars is wow, of course good to buyin to satellite and only pay 35 dollars, so if you bust from this tournament but glstill get one knockout and get 250 dollars fro this you still make some profit and it is good performance

Unlucky jeffaboy. Your experience in this tourney goes to show how different playing higher stakes games is. The main thing to remember is that you have bought into the game therefore you are happy to lose your buy in. On this occasion it came from a lower buy in satellite. So play scared, play your normal A game and if you bust out, so be it, it’s not a bad thing If you win.....that’s a good result.

Yes i too think same like damosk say that to play high stakes game; s very different from smaller buyin tournament and when you not play often it is also adrenaline and think about money too often and not about game and it is hard to make good finish

Yes i understand situation when you hope for bigger money and then results is smaller prize money, sometimes this smaller money is still profit but yoi not feel good, this of course nit right situation but after some time you start to think that this is still good results
for sure a 4 figure payout would have been best but you still got something instead of nothing for it and I'm sure your are happy with that. Well done.

Good job, Jeffa! Despite not having achieved an award-winning position, the important thing is that you made a good profit, considering that you only invested $ 35! I love playing tournaments with KO but you have to be very careful, sometimes the villains play with incredible hands in order to win the bounty, and sometimes they end up doing it! I've lost several times with the best hand. Good luck for the next one! P.S: I think I would never cross paths with those bountys. The maximum has been $ 22!
