So much for that break....

So the whole break thing that i spoke of last post? Ya, i have a problem and enjoy playing too much to take that long of a break. So Sunday, i was ridiculously hung over all day and had nothing to do after like 7pm or so besides feel miserable. I remember telling myself how good i run when hungover so i fired up a bunch of donkaments: the stars 3R, FT 90 man $5, FT $27k guar, and a few others. The 3 that i mentioned i cashed in all of them. The 3R i ran QQ into KK after the villain with KK 6xed UTG +1 with them (WTF?) . The 90 man i got really aggro/bored on the final table bubble and shoved K6os into QQ blind on blind, and a SB limper called my shove with A4s, 78 no good.

On to the $27k, I had one more $26 token on full tilt and liked the structure, so the 1400 other players and i waged war until approx 2am. I got 9th for about $540 or so, not too shabby, but 1st took home a cool $6.5k FUCKKKK. I was CL for most of the later levels, say from 80 left to about 30. The card rush cooled and the table became more aggro so i was opening less pots but was getting little resistance. I bled some chips on the FT bubble when i opened K10s from the HJ, bb flatted, flop comes 9xx rainbow, i just check b/c i dont want to get CR'ed with air. Turn comes a Q, i bet it and get flatted, river CC and QJ owns. I was down to 200k chips and an M of like 4. I get to the FT and 3rd hand i have AK in the SB, MP opens i basically call my all in, i turn the world in a gutter, 2 overs, and a flush draw against the 99, but BLANK! Still my either biggest or 2nd biggest score ever, i cant be disappointed too much.

And finally Tuesday i was over BCM's and played a DS to the million, luckboxed my way to the FT after getting HU and 99 calling down my 8's full on a xK8xK board. we get 7 handed, im shortie and bye bye stars.
Dear lilOUmikey,

Tournament #59085173 has been cancelled due to technical reasons.

When a tournament is cancelled before players are in the money, we refund
each player their tournament fee, and then divide up the prize pool based
on the following formula:

- 50% of the award pool distributed evenly between remaining players
- 50% of the award pool distributed proportionally according to the chip
count

At the time of cancellation there were 7 player remaining, and your chip
count was 1,065. Total chips in play were 15,000.

Prize pool to be divided equally: $684.80/2 = $342.40
Prize pool to be divided based on chip count: $684.80/2 = $342.40

Your share in money equally divided: $342.40/7 = $48.91
Your share based on chip count: $342.40 x (1,065/15,000) = $24.31
Your entry fee refunded: $1.00
Total money refunded to your account: $74.22

ship it please, k thanks

Congrats man! Must be soooo frustrating to FT, be that close to huge cash, and walk with 9th, but 9th is still very nice for the buy-in invested.
