I finished 2nd place in a 72 person tourney on Full Tilt yesterday. I couldn't not catch cards. It was only for a token to another tourney, but it was still a victory. Top 9 all got a token, but of course I never play for 9th, so I stuck it out till the end. When we get to the final table, 3 people automatically got all-in, because they've already won their token, they don't care anymore. I look at my cards to see that I have pocket aces in front of me.....hmmm. So of course I call. I was a little nervous because I was up against (9,10s) (5,2o), (a,4o). There were some live cards out there, but my aces held up and I took all 3 of their stacks. I'd say the craziest hand was midway through the tourney. I'm in 2nd position. First position raises to $200, double the BB. I have Pocket Jacks. I reraise the $600. One dumbass goes all-in behind me, then first poistion goes all-in. So now there's $3000 in the pot or so, and I need to contribute another $700, only a 1/5th of my chips. So I call. I show J,J, first position show Q,Q....shit. Other guys shows.....Q,Q.....WTF!?! So we're 3 handed all-in to the flop (J,J) vs. (Q,Q) vs. (Q,Q). Well, I know a queens not coming. Queens are good to a split pot until the river when I hit my Jack. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! That was crazy. Good times though. I only have to win one more tourney till I get to a tourney that actually pays out.
