    .... nope. Wasn't able to add the pic. ... sigh

    Anyways, this hand put me on monkey tilt. I couldn't believe just how bad of a player the guy was. How could he not put me on the '2' there in the BB (unraised pot) is wayyyyyy beyond me.. "BUT" it's exactly the result I was looking for (just didn't really expect him to be that bad).
    Gets it in as a 25to1 dog.. all his chips, both sitting on good stacks of ~60bb's in mid levels.

    I was kinda shocked though earlier on in that tournament too... just a TON of bad players (very passive/weak players on that site, soooo much less aggressive than MTT play on FTP or Stars or TItan for that matter). The occassional monkey who's reraising with A7o, calling down with A hi, & overshoving rivr with air on super wet boards... but more of the loose/passive calling station types (there were quite a few hands in early going where I couldn't help but to break out laughing... unfortunately this hand here wasn't one of them, lol).

    Any wagers on if this guy even makes it ITM? Hmm.. I say 'no' (even though this suckout put him in 5th spot).

    I'd strongly recommend 888Poker to any MTT players who are playing the $10-$20 buyin levels. 888Poker has a handful of games running, some with a bit of overlay, all with decent satellites to get into them. (I played one on a Monday a mth ago, $10Kguar., $22 buyin and there were less than 300entrants in it (that's over $4k overlay). It has since filled up to near capacity but was great while it lasted.

    Micro cash tables on that site are also EXTREMELY FISHY. I've been using the site to just have fun on late at night & usually only playing 2nl or 10nl (8-10tabling) and have only had two small losing sessions & am currently running at more than 100bb/100 which is just insane! (I booked one week on there with avg. of over 200bb/100 and put in close to 10hrs. while 8tabling... ez money from the super micros). A good spot to be a winning player for a newcomer.
