Mixed emotions after a final table



Posted Mon Apr 03, 2006 8:47 pm GMT by Johny
Firstly, I haven't been running very well over the last few months. I managed to break even over this time, but it wasn't much fun. Well I notice that PS added $4 180 SnGs (more like a MTT) along with the usual $20's. I decided to try out the $4, because the $20's are out of my bankroll.

After a strong start, I dwindled down to around last place with 70 players left. I managed to slowly build my stack up and was the chipleader with two tables left. At the final table I went card dead for the most part, but managed to win 2 important races to end up finishing in 4th.

I was a little disappointed though with my finish, but I was happy to finally get a good result after this downswing. Not much money, but it feels good to finally feel that I'm not as bad as my results were showing.

Hopefully this is a turn for the better. Wink

Making a final table and not finishing first always feels bad, even if you get $1000's for it you still feel sick at not winning.

4th is a nice finish tho and gives you good experience of final stages of mtt's.

You'll feel better about it tomorrow Wink

Nice job going from last to the final table. When I get real low on chips like that I usually end up getting frustrated and just moving in with crap to double-up or finish, so kudos.
