thanks man, appreciate the support.

dinobot · Feb 10,2006, 01:06 AM

the bubble is burst so this is officiallt the biggest tourney I have cashed in.

The deck is cold as can be though, hope it gets better.

dinobot · Feb 10,2006, 01:20 AM

Over now, I finished 34th.

The stakes in those things get insanely high insanely fast. A single mistake essentially crippled me. Followed up by a couple nasty beats, and some fatigue, you ain't getting too far

Are there any books that address playing late in limit hold em tourney's? I've gone fairly deep in a few, but seem to make mistakes at some pretty key moments and blow it.
