Just can't get enough

I played two WSOP satellites. One was a $69+6 on Full Tilt to their $500+35 Sunday Qualifier and lost a critical coin flip when we got down to two tables. Then i played a $27r on PokerStars and finished 7th with the top 4 finishers getting seats to the $650 Qualifier. I was the chip leader when we were down to two tables and ran into some bad luck at the final table (JJ < QTo; TT < AJo).

I really like the $27r satellites Stars is running. There's plenty of dead money and the structure is awesome (15 min blind levels). The tournament started with 46 players and only 29 made it through the rebuy period.

pretty funny.

I didn't do the insta-rebuy because i figured i'd be able to dubble thru some lagtard before the break. I went into the break with t$3700 chips and did the add-on ($25 for t$2k). So, i was comfortably in the middle of the pack at the break with only $52 invested. I got $77 for my 7th place finish.

I'm planning to give another $27r satellite a try before Sunday's $650 WSOP Qualifier kicks off.

I played both $15 token frenzies (4:45pm ET; 9:45pm ET) and got junk kicked after shoving pf (KK < AK; 99 < 88). Otherwise, i woulda played more WSOP satellites on Full Tilt.

EDIT: Today's $27r's have only 5 min levels.
