Hi boys and girls it's your boy TheIrish77 and hope all my fellow forum bums are doing well and making magic happen on those tables. If anyone has any crazy stories would love to hear them .
Just hit a final table today after some good runs yesterday that didn't materialize for me . Today back in the drivers seat!
Playing a small 200$ gtd Rebuy NLHE Mtt and with a massive chip stack over 5.8 Milly with 2nd spot with just over 4.2 Milly.
Be back when finished and hopefully a godo result.
Wish me luck.
------------ Ouch lockboxes kept doing what they do getting lucky agsainst me. 3 occasions 4 handed really got screwed and out in 4th for 17$. not bad for a 0.55cent investment but super pissed about the final hands. Big one was TT me vs A2 Villain and of course river gods give him the win. And had chance to knock out maybe 10 hands prior and A8 vs J6os and he hits trips against top pair. UGHHHHH
Another good run but should have been a a win.

Another good run for our favourite poker player, TheIrish 77. It does seem like you got very unlucky towards the end of the tournament, which is always frustrating, but hopefully the poker gods will smile on you in the next one. Well done again to you my friend

Congratulations to TheIrish77 on finishing a $0.55 buy-in tournament in fourth place and winning $17. That's not too bad. The tournament payout structure seems pretty decent for a small buy-in $200 guaranteed tournament. Good luck with your next session.

Posted by Serpang: Congratulation you already start back to good track, wish will continue at bigger MTT Better luck next time.
Thanks Serpang! Wish i coulda taken it down but the gods we're certainly up to their old tricks late in the run and toyed with my emotions. Decent finish but wanted the W!

Thanks Double mate. Yeah i'll take another deep run with profit anyday of the week so if i can look at things like that then it's a positive but hey we always want that victory as human don't we ? oh well next time i guess.

Tony_MON7ANA as always for the find words mate. Yeah payout is good for investment and things could've been better but bad luck is part of the game as well.

Finishing in a top position, which also awards money is something you are after. You can have the first place always That story seems very familiar. You could have knocked a player out before, yet you folded and you missed the chance. And in a later point of the game, when you have less chips, from that player, and you end up in an all in situation, you get kicked out. It was like a law when i was grinding Better luck in your next games.
Better luck next time.
