I just took down a $24+2 tournament on full tilt for $2800 and change. Looks like sallie mae is gonna be a happy gal this month. I really liked my play in the tournament. Very laggy early on to build a stack and once I built it I never looked back. Only sucked out once in the tournament, got it in pre-flop with queens against someones kings and hit the Q on the flop. One hand that I particularly enjoyed was the last hand before the final table.
I was the button with 10-7o and it folded to me. I decided to min raise from the button to steal the blinds, but they both called. Then the flop came 6-8-9 and I giggled like a little girl. Especially when the small blind bet the pot and the big blind shoved over.
I got to heads up play with a massive chip lead. I had 1.2 mil and they has under 150k. I pushed any two cards and it took until he was down to 110k for him to call. I missed but kept pushing him in, however, he caught pocket tens the next hand and my chiplead was now 4.5-1. Since he was obnoxiously tight, I just min raised every blind and whenever he limped I 3x'd it. I widdled him down back to under 200k and won it all with k8 vs a3.
I'm eating less shit than before in the 500 SNG challenge but even if it's less shit, it is still shit. I was playing SNGs on FTP and I was smashing them. I guess the grass is greener on the other side. I got a hundred and something SNGs to complete to finish the challenge, I'm hoping ot break even. Time will tell.
