bad luck

OP, you got it entirely wrong. I watched the shorty with 116 bust in 227th place. He, "chronologically," went out first and was WAY shorter than me. The tourney was over. I coulda shoved 72o. Best bust out ever in my opinion.

who the phuck is genius 28? You people need more to do.

Upon further review, djdaddio is certain that he was fully aware of the fact that tioalberto had already busted out in 227th place due to the fact that tioalberto had the shortest stack going into the final hand with only 116 chips.

This allowed him to go all-in with any two just for ****s and giggles, and I'll give him the benefit that he was paying closer attention than I was to the timing of tioalberto's bust out.

I suppose the fact that he held KK the final hand went a long way towards looking like a donkey move, when it was in fact academic what action he took at that point in time, as his seat was assured.

Thus I would like to retract my original post of djdaddio making an error in judgement in the hand in question, with apologies for my ignorance. I wish you good luck in the WSOP ME.

OP Im friends with DJ and Im like 90% certain he knew what was going down.

Oh you figured it out.

Fair enough I posted a retraction and sent him a private message owning up to my error. My bad. GL in the ME to dj and anyone else.

I think it was the fact that he had KK that threw me for a curve, just a coincidence it seems.

that's nothing OP,

i was railing a mate of mine when they were at about 229 or so. all fold round to the SB, he has ~$60k. at this point there were at least 2, maybe 3, stacks left in the tourney with less than 1 BB (16k).

all he has to do is fold every hand from here on out and he wins a package. so he obv shoves... with 23o. the BB has him covered by 800 chips. he thinks for ages until he finally calls... with AA. they hold. gg moran. (btw, BB's call w/ AA sucks too imo).

You have to be kidding me, after all that OP

%*&#*&^$R

I think a man owns up to his mistakes. If that offends you then WTF is a cracker to do?

ty sweet sassy. i like as much as the next guy to browbeat the idiocy you see in this game. i'm looking forward to the big show. first trip back in 3 years.

Yes this is definitely a terrible play with 23o and AA. Even vs a random hand AA will lose about 14% of the time, vs almost 100% certainty of getting a seat.

lol i like how this thread developed
