Won a seat in a cash game promotion (random table selected, high card for the seat). It's a 1.6k event.
Came through Day 1 with 71.5k chips (average ~95k). Only time I was in a pretty big pot was when I turned a straight with KQ on a JT8A board v AQ.
Day 2 started well. I raised/4b TT, won a couple of other hands and got up to ~115k chips. After that, pretty much nothing went well and I was pretty damn shortstacked going into the money bubble.
They paid 171, and I was all in twice with less than 5 people to the bubble (I was rolling with about 10bbs or less). Passed the bubble and there was great success!
Won a couple other steals and one 3bet with KQ that got someone else to fold. Knew the double up/out spot was coming up. Facing a button raise, I shoved with 77. BB woke up with 88. GG.
Played pretty well imo.... I should probably look to play for a bit more tournaments.
