I just run my 2's into Penquin7's A's and crashed out in 9th in the 7.15 deepie.. now I finished 7th last week so a combined total of about 7-8hrs and no cash...

Got me thinking what's the longest you have played in a tourney (online or live) and fell short of the cash..

    I played a freeroll once for one seat in a major tourney. 3000 odd runners.  It took around 7 hours.  I came second.  Lost binked all in 66 v 33 while two BB's separated us.  Livid.

    Oh don't get me started.

    In 1 tournament it was 4 hours and then my AK got beat by AQ on the bubble.

    but if your talking how long have you played ant not cashed over a period of tournaments, i am on the longest run in poker history of getting right close to the money and then busting out in flips.


    Starting to think "going for the win" is all nonsense.

    Last years Sky Poker UK Tour Main Event in Nottingham. Top 27 paid I came 32nd, think it was 8 hours play on Day 1 and at least 2 on Day 2.

    A few years ago I played the Tribeca 15k tournaments on the Friday and Saturday and the 50k on the Sunday. I managed a heroic bubble in all 3 tournaments. That added up to about 12 hours without a penny to show for it.

    I made up for it the following week by cashing every night in the 15k and taking 3rd place in the Sunday 100k for a cool 11k.

    where did you finish in Monday's deepstack Tony?

    Another deep run, well played!

    The PRIMO has been pretty kind to me and I've had half a dozen cashes in it (as far as I recall) since around April when I started playing regularly on this site. Had a two week run though when i crashed out pretty much on the bubble both times so that was definately a fair few hours playing with no return. All good fun though in retrospect! :-)
