Yes that’s me 92 hands in with 80 chips. 80 out of 1500. I am dead in the water. I have no chance in hell of pulling this out. It’s not a rebuy tourney. It is all or nothing. It’s my 20.00 on the line. Here is the final hand of the tournament:

Yes in 23 hands I can back from 80 chips with the blinds 25/50. A lot of it was luck but after 700 it was skill to a large degree. I dominated him. I had him on tilt. It was a done deal and I didn’t even realize it. I even told him good game the hand before when he took all but 80 of my chips. I am waiting for the next one to start. It’s a heads up tourney and this was only the first round. I have to be on my game because luck won’t get the 1382 that is being paid for first place…
