My new favourite tournament!!
« on: January 15, 2008, 13:39:22 PM »
Thought I"d start a post about a skilful/lucky run I"m on in one particular tournament.  About a month ago I played a $69 - 45 runner sit and go on Full Tilt that pays top 6, with a First prize of $1179.90.  After just over 2 hours work, I scooped the first prize, which although I constantly cash/win sit and go"s, is probably my largest single cash.  I have played this tournament 3 times since, all last weekend, and finished 3rd, 4th and 2nd for roughly $500, $310 and $780 respectively.  So in total I have played this tournament four times and finished 1st-4th!  I"ve decided to give up all other tournaments and cash games and concentrate solely on this one.  Should be a millionaire by July  ;D

In all seriousness, 4 cashes in a row isn"t exactly the greatest achievement and the run will obviously finish soon but pretty cool to have played 4 times and finished 1st-4th.  Does anybody else have any particular favourite tournaments?

P.S I have a screenshot but not sure how to copy on to post (Daniel - please advise  ;D

There was a Hendon Mob forum private HORSE tournament which I was regularly entering (as was Linziwan who also did consistently well).

Although I had good results, the most striking thing was the symmetry of my results.

I entered 15 times and I came in the top three 9 times.
But the breakdown of all results were:

1st: 3 times
2nd: 3 times
3rd: 3 times
6th: 3 times
Last:3 times

Bit odd?

amazingly odd if there were only 12 runners

1+2 = 3
1+2+3 = 6
1+2+3+6 = 12

Best way to post a screenshot is to go to photobucket and open an account.

Upload your image(s) to your account, and then it provides links to them for you to use on forums, etc.
