After roughly four million attempts I have finally won the 8pm main event.
At ever loving last. I am now level with Orford. Whoop!

very well played tommy!
im made up for you!
even better, i won the mini open on the same night for like 250 quid...
I know my place lol
That's the first Spurs double for 50 years. It's lucky for Spurs when the year ends in 1.......
Could I ask, you dipped out of another game (which I was watching) to concentrate on this one. When you left I cant rem what you said but I thought "I gotta watch this".
I think you were 7/17 then. Did you have an inkling that you would do well?

1) I joke about the monkey on my back but in reality it was bothering me, I have run deep a number of times and always had a blow up/cooler/bad flip. It was firmly on my mind and I couldn't give the forum cash game the respect and concentration it deserves (straddles, special hands, the chat which I really enjoy) while worrying about the Open. I had already missed one straddle (I'm normally one of the best in there when it comes to remembering the straddle) and I would just be ruining the game for people.
2) Of all my deep runs, I was playing just about the worst I had ever played and still got to this stage. I nearly missed the MTT as I was out having a drink with my father this afternoon. I very rarely mix booze with poker as usually it never ends well. Tonight was the exception. I felt I needed to single table to play better.
In all honestly I had two major slices of run good with 2 tables left. But then again I've been on the other side of it plenty as well at that stage.
So yeah, I played worse in the Open than I normally do, hit a couple of 4 outers on the river and binked it for the first time ever.
lol Donkaments.
