You are looking at the 4th place finisher of the 5K Friday Night Guarenteed NL Tourney. I could have been first. However by the time I got that far down I was soooo tired and out of it that I went all in with 50K and a 4-to-a-Flush draw with one card left. I got beat by AA. Oh well. Sometimes you gotta push. However I think I was just tired. I need someone talking to me on AIM when I do these things or I get fuzzy headed and end up losing.

I am happy with the finish, I just know I could have done better. That last table is tough and tiredness plays a HUGE part in how well you do. Better luck next week I guess.

BTW - TP: How do you transfer money to an Empire player via Empire Poker?
I owe my partner 90 bucks.

How many hours did it take, and what did it pay?

What's the buy in for that tourney? That sounds like a rather small guarentee to a tourney - relatively speaking. Unless it was like 10 dollar or less buy in.

The buyin was $20. It started at 8:00 and ended at 1AM (for me) with a $450 profit. Nice ROI for the price.

very nice result sir.

try the dan harrington approach with the longer tourneys and intentionally zone out at times early on so that you can be a little bit sharper if/when you get to the end.

is is good if you are zoning out, unintentionally.
