Thanks for the interest in me.
The whole experience was excellant, true the cards turned against me in the end, but I have no complaints as my $6000 ticket was won through The Daily Telegraph freeroll.
The comment i was going to make was that if his pocket threes had held up against dan carters two overs who knows where he would have finnished? If the structures are that fast then surely the buy in is too high amount for what will turn into a crapshoot... but then if it was lower the pros wouldnt play and the prize pool wouldnt get that high (i forget what the buy in was but it wasnt chump change)
If only, I knew he was making a move, and that seemed to change the tourney for me. The eventual winner had come over the top of my reasonable starting hand 3 times in sucession ( not shown on the potted highlights) and with kh qh I decided to make a stand. This did not hold up to :as: ad
Then every time I had a marginal hand he had a slightly better one.
The structure has changed this year, last year it was 30 mins blinds, this year it was 21 hands, similar, but the others that played seemed to prefer this years structure.
Anyway once again thanks for the interest, see you all at Walsall. I"ll be the one in the 888.com fianalists teeshirt.......lol
