Man i don’t like to dwell on close calls but in the last two days I’ve finished 3/81 for a WSOP seat and 2/81 for a WSOP seat in the nightly FTP Double Shootout satellites.
On Sunday night I was never really a big factor at the second table but somehow found myself 3 handed with an 8k stack vs a 100k and 40k stack. Miraculously, I went on a little run and was up to 40k when I ran 88 into KK bvb. 3 handed i’m never folding a pair so I chalk it up to a cooler.
Last night was much more disappointing. I tore up the final table. I knocked out 6 of the players. I got to heads up with a 100k to 50k advantage and a few hands in had K6. Flop was K high with a straight draw out. This guy had been pretty aggressive so when he raised my flop bet I called and he had K7. I was hoping to chop but he took the whole pot.
The very next hand I shoved 55 and he had 66 to end the game.
So close!
