talking of Marrakech. I've been there once. I've never had a 6 figure £ score ( Morrocan Diraham us worthless ) but am still haunted by my Irish open exit where I would be gtd 100k. Probably would not have changed my life then but it most certainly would now. |

Very recently actually. http://www.boomplayer.com/en/poker-hands/Boom/1828756_7A4E74B5FC8th gtd 10kish, 150kish for 1st. Have one of the suits covered, thought he had too many outs ott Also lost JJ v xxhh on xxxhJhxh when I was 2/10 vs 1/10 in one of the biggest Sunday Millions from last year. I've really tried to become more of a feature on the live circuit and closeish to the bubble lost AJ v A10 (Brammer) v XX (folded) for nice stack in Prague which hurt alot. I'm more of a cash grinder, but every time I have a go and get close it has been taken away from me. Hurts quite a lot actually. Bad Beat or not still the worst time to have it happen to you ! |

heh  it changed my life because I probably carried on working rather than rubbing my titties with money and losing the rest of it on the circuit/ or winning millions on the circuit. |

Hardly guarantees you the win! |

I haven't played that many decent enough games that are worth that much, but one I can remember where I went deep in tourney was DTD deep a few months ago.
I can't remember action that much, I raise MP, next on shoves all in for her tourney life with 99. I snap call with AA. 9 on flop. It was difference between me being a CL into day three and a small cash, which it did end up being for £1800.
Claim to fame is that I chopped Naps rebuy HU with Ali Mallu for £3k and he never does deals.

Amazing how quickly this thread went south.
Nothing poker players love more than a thinly disguised bad beat story. Which reminds me of a time I was chip leader in a tournament...

Don't know what you expected? It seems guaranteed to produce a stream of bad beat stories. Indeed it started with one. Given the nature of tournaments most people's significant hands result in their exit. Or were you just referring to how bad you must run to only finish 3rd in the Sunday 500 when playing tourneys part time? So sick. |

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Expected people to understand the concept that 'nothing changing' is not the same as 'life changing' maybe? |

Here's a bad beat that changed everyone's life. First APAT National event, I manage to win with   v   when it was three-handed to give me a massive chip-lead from which I went on to win the tournament. Because of that tournament/win, Tikay and Des mentioned blonde poker, and that I should check out the forum - and so I joined up. Haven't left since. |
