My worst ever bubble out

    Default My worst ever bubble out

    I just came 3rd in a Pokerstars satelite for a seat in a tourn for a trip to Monaco. Usually I would be very happy with coming 3rd out of 169 players, but unfortunatley only the top 2 get the seats

    It was very tense, the final table stayed at 8 people for ages before dropping to 4 very quickly. The long time chip leader then went on tilt and doubled everyone else up to leave three of us on quite similar stacks. We play around for a few hands, then one of the players loses a big hand to leave him very short stacked. The short stack then go and play very aggressivley for a few hands to claw a few chips back and and then comes the hand that cripples me (posted below). To make matters worse the same player really kicks me in the nuts by doing something similar to knock me out.

    Sorry for the story.... needed to let of steam as the cat has already hidden from me

    Wow that sucks man, But still you must have played prety damn good to finish 3rd out of 169, Thats why i dont like the tournaments where so few people win anything, Even if you play great it comes down mostly to luck at the end.
