2nd Place in $3750 GTD

Played the $3,750 Guarantee on Carbon yesterday, just wanting to cash out a little something for when I play the $50k next week I have addon/rebuy money. I got in using a $60 coupon that I had aging up for almost 2 years.

I wrote a detailed blog Cashing $937 on Carbon Poker, which is very lengthy if you wanna read it, also did up a video of the later half of the tournament. I'd have to give credit to big hands holding up. Aces and Kings and the Big Chick pulling through when I needed them.

The final table and bubble was a little nerve racking as I slid out of the money for awhile and made a couple mistakes but took advantage of notes I built up while playing. Easier to watch vid in full screen.

You are lucky with the hands in the final table from beginning in your Youtube videos. Haha expected to get AA twice in the Final table and pockets and nuts hands.
Good job of your 2nd place you deserve it. :)

thank-you
the video only shows hands I either won or lost a big blind blind or more, the final table I was where I waited patiently.
Much like Donkeys Dont Fold Stats thread, I make no folds on the turn or river.

this game I had a 84% fold pre flop, 0% turn/river and 11% no fold @final table

I will admit I got fortunate to have my big hands hold up, but that is the long term odds coming back around for me.
This game/my style of poker does show it pays off in the long run to play by math

How did you like the hand played at 4:08? AT diamonds
