FTP Million AK<JJ for a top 20 stack a couple of hours in. Ace on the flop gives me hope. Jack on the river dashes it.

Stars WCOOP second chance AQ<88, close to the money.

Stars WCOOP main - 33<AQ, 66<AQ (both shorties) and the final blow was TT<AQ

Also during the WCOOP main AK<A5.

Despite my inability to flip or win any preflop allins whatsoever, I did manage to cash in the WCOOP main for almost $10k Smile

Just so frustrating what could have been if I ran anywhere near expectation Evil or Very Mad

Shocking news on the flips front, but a nice score in the ME.

Given that it was far from easy for the first couple of hours this was a great result.

GG fella

I was railing the WCOOP ME...

TP put on an awesome display of patiently fighting back from each of those hits...picking the right players to resteal/steal against...and made back the chips he lost each time...

I know it hurts cuz you could've gotten so much deeper even winning just one of those flips (or the 70/30)...but GG, Fella!

I couldn't last through the bubble last night. I got up and kept moving up the finish list one by one....hoping to never see your name. Well that kept me very interested for quite a while.

Nice cash in the ME regardless. While frustrating it is nevertheless impressive that you are getting so many chances. Very impressive.

Unlucky, but you did a great job none the less.

I railed from about an hour before through the bubble on the ME. I saw you take the shorty on w/AQ only for him to flip AK. I thought you did great.
