  1. Jinxy looking for his 2nd FT of the day, but Paradise will not let that happen!

    Playing in the 100k on Dise, I manage to have a good stack the whole tourney. But don't we all know that good things come to an end?

    With around 30 people(6k 12k) left DA JINXY Picks up JTs, in MP, one limper so he limps as well. 4 See the flop of Kx9s6s. It is checked to me I bet out 45k, then BB Immediately pushes all in. I have him covered and am getting over 2 to 1 so I call and pray he doesn't have a higher Flush Draw. He turns over 96 for bottom 2 pair and I am OK with that. The turn is the most beautiful card in the world for me, bringing a lovely Q making the board K96Q. Alas all good things come to an end and the river is the brutal, Brutal, BRUTAL 9!!!

    Oh man that was a huge pot I would have had well over 400k, and been in 2nd in chips.

    But that's not all folks!

    The dealer decides to play with my heart YET AGAIN!!

    Towards the end im pretty darn short with ~80k (8k 16) when it is folded to me in LP and I look down and see A4. I push hoping to pick up the pot but... NOT SO FAST MY FRIEND! The button wakes up with TT. "Oh boy" I say. Me and my fellow rail buddies start repeatedly asking the dealer for an AAAAAA in the chat. The flop comes.... A(!!!!!)82. OMG OMG I hit YESSS!!. Turn is a 4, wow a brick and a pretty 2 pair. Im feeling good about the ~200k i'm about to have until it hits me : There's still one card left!
    Well Folks, you know how this one ends!

    River is a TTTTTTTTT to make Mr. J.MONKEY go BUSTOOO.

    Oh well :(
    I would have felt much better if I had just lost to BRICK BRICK BRICK!, but nope both times in huge pots the dealer has to give me high hopes only for him to tell me to put that in my Pipe and Smoke it!

    Can't complain too much as I had a Nice FT in THE BIG DEAL(4th) earlier today, not to mention 2 WSOP CASHES earlier in the week!

    Stay tuned for more TALES FROM DA JINX!!
  2. HH? need proof.
