Results MillionDollarTourney - 12/11-2006

This was a very interesting tourney. I started slowly and suddenly I got flush on the flop and a few trips. I went from 6400 in chips to 38000 in 15 min. I stayed in the game for 3 hours and 42 min. US.GOV.owns took me ALL IN on the Big Blind when I had QQ. He had A,3 off suit and the flop came: 6,3,6,3,5 and he got a FULL HOUSE!! Oh nooo!! At least he said sorry!

SO UNREAL and not fair! Shit happens in this business, both ways. Hmmm!! A few dollars anyway.I ended up as nr 721 of  6740 players. Some guys helped the others to reach the money as shortstacks at 975 th place. Well done, sports! Last time I looked, the US.GOV.owns had a 44 th place and he was rocking, with all his luck he finished as nr 66. What you need is some luck and the skills to make it. I think I have the skills but I need more luck. This weeks winner > Legato and he came from Stockholm, Sweden! Well Done Swede! 

I will try again. More luck and no flops like the one above please!

It was a new record again with above 6000 players. I recieved AA and met K,5! The other guy called almost anything and we ended up ALL IN. Guess if he got a pair of 5's on flop and a K on the river! People call Pokerstars Riverstars. Unfortunately to his advantage! Better luck next time. It sux to get a call like that and miss out on the river. That's poker I guess!

The holliday has to wait

Results MillionDollarTourney - 15/10-2006

I ended up in the largest Million $$$ Tournament in history with 6157 "hard working" pokerplayers! Everybody noticed a change in the chips structure from the beginning of the tourney. We got 10.000 in chips instead of the normal amount of 2500. I was struggling with many hands and when I got something of value, then everybody folded or I got the trips and raised  but a callingstation followed and got a str8.I had 10.10,10 on the flop! It seems to be plenty of gamblers in this tourney and plenty of luck an skills are needed. The winner came from Sweden and Borlänge. Håcken was his name vs rockdown and Grand Rapids, USA.The tournament took approximately 10 hours and it was an ALL IN between these "guys". Håcken had A,K vs rockdown's KK. Guess if Håcken recieved the Ace on the river! Yes he did, and what more. How much did he get for this effort?

Håcken recieved $ 176,090.20 Dollars - Rockdown recieved $ 87,798.82. Well done "guys" Time for holliday I assume!? That's right, what happened to me? See result below.
