Re: Why I don't play SnGs (PartyPoker stories)

Sort of unrelated, but I don't want to start a new thread. Decided to play a $2 multi-table tourney on P* the other night - for the first time. Here was my outcome:

Dear iNano78,

You finished the tournament in 88th place.
A $4.87 award has been credited to your Real Money account.

You earned 58.07 tournament leader points in this tournament.
Not too bad for my first time. Wish it was a $20 tourney; $3 profit for 4+ hours is a little weak. Especially since I blew through $300 in the cash tables I was playing at the same time. (bad beats to be posted later... once I've cooled down)

Anyway, here were two memorable hands in the tournament: the first got me back in the hunt, and the second permanently crippled me.

When billbisa and I ridiculed allskills1 for calling the all-in and re-raise all-in bets, he said "I had to make a stand sometime". Who here would "make a stand" by calling off his chips with KQs against two players who are all-in?

lol. donkaments
