  18. Thanks Everyone. It's pretty surreal right now. I played my heart out and was only playing for first. Incredibly top heavy structure. 37.5% of prize pool to 1st place. 155 Entrants. Approx payout:
    1st - 270k
    2nd - 140k
    3rd- 68k
    Dont recall the rest but we were only guranteed 18k for 6th..so I OBV 4-bet all in on the CL with a8 off on the 3rd or 4th hand of FT...he had QQ. He played amazing poker and got super unlucky (his online name jam87 (25-50 reg? I think). I was pretty card for the whole FT until I coolered AK vs AQ HU.
    Made some crucial mistakes but I think I played pretty well. Far more agressive than usual. I also shipped a last longer bet with Gavin (out 4th I believe). My 2500 against his 1K. I told him at least a half dozen times the night before I was winning the tournament. Also told Ch0ppy, Timex and Sirwatts on day 1 that I would win. Much love to grant18 for coming through in the clutch and picking me up and driving me down as soon I landed.

    EDIT: CL was Jem87
  19. congrats man, do u recall who u were left heads up with?
  20. nice work
  21. His name was Vinh. He was from Guelph but born overseas. Dont recall his last name. He had like a dozen family members in the audience. I think it was his sister who came up to me at the end of the tournament - "You really lucky" "yeah I was." "You got really really lucky." "umm yeah I did."
