Sorry guys lost track of this post my info came from a direct live feed which i was watching he was ul but the guy was running so hot hitting everything when behind and holding when infront final ten left now till 2pm tomorrow James just missed the cash top 15 got from 1800 upwards next out ie:10th gets 2200 then it changes again well done James now back to what matters Total PLayer lol enjoy and good luck
Thanks guys :-)! I felt I played really well and didn't feel I made a mistake whole tournament.
My exit hand was pretty brutal Mid position opens for 10k at blinds 2/4k 400 ante cut-off flats, button flats I shove for 70k total in the small blind (My image is a rock by the way). Original raiser folds and I'm pretty sure now my squeeze has got through, then the 1st caller tanks whilst saying " I know you've got nothing!" .... "Oh really?" I say. Anyway he ends up calling other guy folds. He flips 5-5 and makes out its some genius call when I turn over K-Q and he realises hes flipping.
Don't think he understands ranges or realises my range there is pretty much all better pocket pairs and obv at worst two overs for a coinflip. He ships the 170k pot and I'm 2 off the money sigh!
Pretty confident If I win that pot I can get myself in to a pretty sick finish if not win the comp.
How can he call with 5s? cud have been squeezing with 67 suited n hes still flipping for half his stack, with 2 players still behind?
This aint a suck up but love ur shove, mainly because ur 2 off the bubble (not sure I would have the courage to make it in a tourny this big, but it makes perfect sense to me, id do it in the primo? lol) - btw my attitude towards the game at this stage in a tourny this size, basically justifies ur play, id probli fold aces here just incase! ha just kidin - but u no wat I mean.
So looking forward to watching the TP players over the next few nights, gonna be wikid, whos gonna be brave and go for the big win? lol
Yeah I'm not scared of bubbling to be honest mate, my play should work almost everytime. It's a terrible call but hopefully he will be at the next comps to pay me off :-).
Congrats on making it through mate, only got home tonight so just read the forum and saw the added 3 players!
On the plus side a good friend of mine who I meet up with at live events is on the final table of the EPT in Deauville. His name is Jake Cody, he is 2nd in chips 8 left.. €870k for 1st :-D.
He won a huge pot 5-bet shoving 10-4 allin into KK with 18 left and hitting a straight, can any1 tell he's a mate of mine yet?! lol. I'm sure Tikay will of made a good read on that hand that we might even be related :-D

James sent me a long Text which I don't have time to Post tonight, as I'm a bit tired, & I have to go up to Derbyshire now.
But he's a bit disappointed at his exit hand, & if he wins that.....
Hey-ho.
Chin up James, you have a lifetime of poker ahead of you. Most would swap with you. But not those hoodies.....
class act!
I'm sure you will win one soon
