Twice in three tries

By Adanthar on 08/05/2025 read Adanthar's complete blog
I didn't play the Sunday Million last week and went out early the week before, but tonight, I made another deep run in the biggest tourney of the week to get a 40th place finish. I actually got it in behind a couple of times for a change and played a couple of hands questionably, but mostly made the right plays at the right times again until losing a consecutive flip and 62/38 very late (sigh). Two of these kinds of deep runs in nearly consecutive tries really does mean a lot, though.

Here's a fun hand against a guy that had been getting away with playing 40/30 or so for an entire hour:

Seat 2: loonatic111 (36328 in chips)

Seat 6: RyanT5o (64585 in chips)
