Not sure if you did play a lot of PKSO O8, but anyhow this one wasn't like any other. Off the top of my head (would have to recheck FT replay from stream) Mongano's bounty was 11k-11.2k and i had enough chips to call, lose and STILL be chip leader. If i would scoop that pot, i would get 5.5k in bounty and 3k from laddering directly in my pockets. That's even before starting to range villain... I mean, if he has 3 wheel cards and 1 high card (AK35 or such) we are flipping and im usually around 44%, and i'm really only doing poorly when he shows up with a bigger pair and good low like (AQQ2, AKK4, etc), if we include in his shoving range there some High Only hands like AKKQ, AAJT, KKQJ or such this becomes a way more complex decision than "i have bad cards" ... I only consired the spot because I could afford to take it and lose and still be in decent shape to win the tourney so call it greed i guess

Thanks, for a sec I glitched mentally and thought it was GiBobHi/Lo writing this comment... He was railing the FT and asked me if we made a deal in the end and what % of myself i had. Then said he would wait for his revenge in the 1k plo8. Then only last week he was calling me an amazing idiot on the tables...... Anyways, thanks for being genuine and also writing it, made me realize i still need to recover on a lot of sleep haha. Cheers !

Yea this. I offered him encouragement, congratulations and a bit of banter while watching his stream. He's similar to me in that he thinks, "tiltme420", is a good screen name
Didn't feel betrayed, and tbh i think it was just the mix of lack of sleep for the whole month mainly because of scoops + taking a bunch of insults from various regs on the tables following my win + a lot of runbad (if you don't think its possible watch the "Brick Sunday Stream" and laugh as i QQ and get rekt x20). But yes sure, i could just care about the money and laugh at everyone else... altho I'm not that kind of person. Anyhow i apologize for that, doesn't mean you were 2 faced just that i was fed up of people complaining about me running good and cherry picking all the mistakes/missplay i did.
