Tournament: Freebuy on October 11th
Players: 1833
Prizes Available for: The top 14
Prize: Free Entry for the top 14 to a $5.50 Satellite
My Finish: Top 14!
First of all...full disclosure here...I played in several free satellite tournaments tonight. HOWEVER, all of the ones previous to the above were during 'kids time' and making dinner (the wife was working tonight), so I was basically playing crazily and calling or going all in with insane odds while building towers with blocks! It showed, since I bowed out early in all of those. When the kids went to bed I gave this tournament a real shot and the results showed. Yes, I also got lucky on a couple of occasions, but I like to think I actually played pretty well, too! :-)
I hung on for dear life at the end, though. I was way up in chips and pretty much decided to shut it down unless I got something extra special and it almost cost me. Finished 14th out of the 14 qualifiers.
Funny enough, I have actually been considering entering a couple of $5.50 tournaments to try to get back to the $55 stage before laying down another $55 outright. So, now I can try that at least once for free. But not until probably the weekend. Life is getting in the way of poker!!! :-)
Congrats? :)
ReplyDeleteI can just picture the 'poker playing'.
