Ferguson ITM

Finished 32nd out of 1391 players

Cashed for $4.87, pretty disappointed with the result though. I got knocked out with KQ vs JJ, flop came K 9 2, turn of course brought him the two-outer and that was all she wrote. Pot was 55,000 and that would've put me right back into the thick of things. Only made two mistakes the entire tournament, but as we all know, even one mistake late in the tournament can cost you dearly.

Would have liked to see a better result considering the time and effort, but hey, you can't win them all. Any money is better than no money. Cheers ladies and gents, see you tomorrow.

*Edit* - This was the hand that really hurt my stack

I grinded back up to 23,000 until the aforementioned KQ vs JJ. But that's poker for ya, it can be a funny game sometimes.

Good job at the Ferguson! ITM is always good. Yeah, it was a tough hand to lose with, and the one that took you out was rough also. Keep going deep in these and a final table is coming! Great game....NOT!

great job in the tourny lefty. keep playing your game and you'll get your big score now and then. most times we run into these situations but every so often our hard work gets rewarded with a win.

WTG and CONGRATS on the ITM finish NOT. Just keep plugging away and the final table and BIG MONEY will head your way.PEACE OUT BRO

Nice job bro, just keep going for it and you will get that big money,
atleast you cashed for more than you entered for, keep up the good work!!!

Great job NLM! I was expecting a first place finish, though :[

That's an excellent finish, NOT. It is disappointing to get so close and be doing so well to have a real shot at the final table and then come up short. But you finished ITM, which is a feat. For buying into this tourney, you won yourself 4 more free shots at it. Nicely done. Beating that many players in a field this large is no easy feat. Making it to the Final Table in the Donkhard games on FT is pretty tough, and those fields are only about 300 deep. You've got alot to be proud of on this finish. Playing enough solid poker will beat the bad luck in the long run. Congrats!
