biggest online score ever!

0

Despite what i wrote in my interview on CR, I've been taking some shots. Last week I played the 640 $1m guarantee on FTP and the weekly HORSE. I did the same this week, adding in the Mulligan, HORSE and Second Chance. I don't ever recall playing the Second Chance before, but it's def possible. We had friends/family over for football, so I didn't play any earlier tourneys and started w/ the 750k (which I donked out of early). I was feeling down on my night as I busted out of everything, but I somehow final tabled the Second Chance for my biggest score ever of $29k on Stars.

When we were three-handed we waited forever for Stars support to chop the tourney, and I turned down a deal for 36k, just under 2nd place. In hindsight, it obv blows that I turned down an additional 8k, but at one point after turning it down I had the chip lead, and I don't think it was a horrible decision. Given that the other two at the ft were clearly competent players maybe should have swayed me more, but I decided to gamboooool and it didn't work out. I won a big flip w/ 33 > A2o, but I four bet shoved an active guy w/ K7ss and he snapped A9o and held. gg me.

I also final tabled the 9:10 super turbo on FTP (ship the $500!), but finished 2nd to a guy who talked massive shit to me. It woulda felt great to beat him, but oh well.
