I've been deep in Bodog's 6k Guarantee a few times before, bubbling just before the final table. This time around I ran pretty hot when we got down to 3 tables and was able to carry it thru to a win. But it wasn't easy.
I got HU against a maniac on my left that was giving me trouble at the final table. He had a 2-1 chip lead but i just waited for some good spots to trap and knew he'd pay me off.
I won a huge pot with A-3 vs 10-5 on a A-3-4-10-3 board to double the first time. Then i picked up the mightee Q-8 on the button and limped. He minraised, which he was doing a lot HU. He either would minraise or shove. The flop came Q high, he bet i called. turn was an 8 and it all went in. He turned out to have J-3o and flopped 2p but i turned a higher 2p. Poker is ez when you can get lucky in a few critical spots. Crazy thing is i never saw A-A or K-K the entire tournament, pretty sick.
Although the screenshot says 1st paid out $1270, that didn't include the overlay. The difference in payouts between 1st & 2nd was $600. 1st paid $1650.
