Default Won a $30+3 a couple of times

Which pays $150 for first. One of these days I'm going to get lucky in the $5 massive-field multis at 11:30 on Party. I've made it to the money a few times on those, but I'm yet to make it to the final table, where the real cash is.

$1750 tied for first in a 30+3 HE Limit at Party.

It came down to the last two, me and another solid tight aggressive player and he asked if I wanted to chop. I said OK as I had to go out to dinner. I'd been playing the tourney for almost 4 hours, and I'd had enough.

The other day I won $1165 in a Speed Tourney on Party.

I have also won $2000 for coming first in a B&M tourney.

i got 1400.00 for getting 5th out of 242 at a local charity tourney. Also, I used to play the 2 and 3 table multi tables at Party a lot. I finished first in a two table 50 for a 400.00 win. Also got second on those a couple of times. In the 30 dollar three table I got third a few times and 1st once.

That's my name, 35th on this list:


Well, it would be if that list was just a tiny bit longer.

I felt like I played really well, but I continued to lose races against short stacks, not to mention losing a ton of chips TWICE when I got shorter stacks all in and had them *dominated*. I'd build up slow and stready, then get my chips in when I was in great shape, only to lose a ton and have to do it all over again. Finally, the blinds were so big I couldn't recover.

If I had NO luck in that tourney, I would have made the money... but the bad luck got the best of me.

Quick side note: I won my seat in this through a satellite. You know that guy who shouts "PRO-FESS-IONAL" in the WSOP intro? I knocked him out on my way to winning it.

It was basically a trust thing. The guy I decided to chop with said he'd transfer the difference in prizemoney (between first and second) into my account - but it took a little time so we had to post and fold blinds up until then.

I wasn't going to intentionally lose and trust him to give me what he owed me afterwards. It all had to be done during play.

After the money went through, he asked if he could take the title as he wanted the tourney points. I didn't have a problem with that.

No reeal decent money wins, like 260 was the most, but I have been damn close to winning the 5+1 at Party on weeknights:

14th
14th
9th
8th
8th
6th

ALL of those bustouts came when I went on with the best hand and got run down. Also a bunch of top 30 finishes, one day I will win that game.

Glad to hear there's other players playing on the lower tourneys on this forum..

CF, how did you do the chop? was it a trust thing or did admin get involved?
