Sunday 100 Grand

Hey all! Just thought I'd report that I am currently pretty deep in the 100 k on PS. We're down to 651 of 22287 players and I have a 24th place chip stack of 275k. It's pretty crazy, but things are just working out right now. I hope to report a nice finish!

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!


Go DEEEEEEEEP.


GL MAN!

Thanks! I need it with these ridiculous blinds, just got sucked out on with QQ against 88.

Well. It was a good run but I lost a lot of chips on 2 suckouts. Got AQ clubs against A5 spades and he gets the spades which brought me down hard. Then I grinded it out with 100k worth of chips until this hand.

It was a race, but I felt good that two aces were gone. Then both case aces hit the flop. GG me. Still took 115 of over 22,000 players which was good for $222.88. That $20,000 first prize looked sooooooo sweet!

Good run Son.

Sucks to lose big pots to lesser hands each time that inevitably lead to the end for you. That will definately help the BR and just think about 2 weeks ago you were grinding out on $5. Keep up the good work.

That tourney is the single most donkfestery tourney on the net. Given the play style, your finish is even doubly as good as it appears. You should be very proud, well done!

Nice result Son. That is a huge field. Tough beats man.
