wheres my burrito poker tournament

Well Wil Wheaton's poker tournament is over. 96 players each tossed in $10 for this one. I started out good, of course this is too early to mean absolutely anything, but hey:



so the game went on, i built up a really nice big stack, but with about 5 tables left, my QQ ran into a KK, and i doubled that guy up. i was down to the small stack, well under 1K in chips, but slowly built my way back up. with 15 players left i got lucky and my K2 beat a KQ to almost double me up, then we were down to 14 players, and quickly after that, 13.

we sat at 13 players for quite a while then. (top 9 were in the money). finally 13th dropped out, down to 12. within a span of about 4 minutes, i had A9 lose to 22, and then AJ lose to 77, and i even caught an A on the board on that one, unfortunately along with a 7... that was the end of my game.

but what made it even worse is that 2 other people went out at the other table right about the time i did. before i was even done screaming at my monitor, they were at the final table. dammit, maybe next week.
