Deep Run In The Double Deuce

Last night I signed up for The $200K Guaranteed Double Deuce multi-table tournament at Full Tilt Poker.

It became a long journey, deep into the autumn night...

The tourney starts at 22h22 (Brussels time).
So, with 10718 participants and a deep-stacked blind-structure the final table doesn't take place before sunrise.

While the night unfolds, players get knocked out, the blinds rise. The hour is getting late...
Somehow the dream of final tabling hits.
Filthy richness is just the turn of a few cards away.

First place pays about $30K.
Pretty good value for a $22 investement.

Alas, the dream got shredded to pieces in my 305th hand of the night:
I shoved pocket sixes on the button, got called and lost it all...


Busted out in 298th place (after 5 hours of play) and won about $50.
It pushes this months tournament winning slightly out of the red. But that's about it...
No escape to sunny beaches just yet.

Next time all I need is 'one time'...

The $200K Double Deuce runs every Sunday at 16h22 ET (Full Tilt Poker). The buy-in is $22. Or even less as satellites with buy-ins of next-to-nothing run all week... Check it out at Full Tilt Poker.
