A few days rest...

Haven't played other than a $8.70 18-man sit-n-go for a $26 tournament chip. I placed in the top 5 and won a chip. I hope to use that tonight trying to qualify for the FTOPs tournament tomorrow night ($322 buyin - $1,000,000 purse guarantee)


9 players left...6th gets $14 and top 5 get $26 token....

I lose this hand and have 865 chips left...not looking good. Blinds are coming and I lose my internet connection for 3-4 minutes. Luckily I come back in SB and win the pot to get back to ~1600.

Good steal!!!
