THE MTT RESULTS THREAD
i played a 5$ 2k gts on VC yesterday, finished 9th
after my JJ in bb was up against shorties AJ and big stacks KK
shortie pushed from CO, big stack on button just called,
and i felt so sick about his call but just didnt want to lay down JJ considering i was 2nd last in chips anyway.
I was hoping big stack would have AK or maybe smaller pair, but since shortie was all in also and i though if i win i have an slightly over avg stack and if big stack has strong hand he will take us both out anywayz

First off, congrats on your final table.
I know JJ and even QQ are hard to get away from, and even harder when shorty's will be pushing almost anything. But I think you have to muck your Jacks with big stack calling. There are just too many hands that can flop better than JJ. Not to mention the bigger pp's. You are at Final table moving up the ladder, my opinion is you don't have to take such big gambles with 9 left.
Please don't take this as a slam, because thats not what i'm trying to do. I know throwing JJ away is easier said than done.

I entered the 1000 fpp freeroll for a WSOP seat last night on stars. I played very well for the vast majority of it mixed with two boneheaded semi-slowplayed sets that both went runner-runner to screw me over..
Either way, only 1 person won a seat out of 500 entries and I came in 12th.
SO close, yet so damn far. Two hands continue to annoy me and I know I could have played this better...
Look for me in the $650s for the wsop seat...

Ouch it must suck to make it so far in the $5r and bust out at that point. Next time Final Table, yo!
