Million Pound Challenge

I've been away for about 11 days and also without the Internet for the same amount of time - what a nightmare.

Anyway after ploughing through my emails last night. I had an interesting one from Full Tilt saying that I had managed to earn 7 Freeroll tickets for the Full Tilt Million Pound Challenge.

If you win a freeroll you get entry & expenses to their tournament in London in a couple of weeks time. So I redeemed one last night and came a credible 29th out of 365 runners.

I had a couple of beats to deplete my stack, but that's the way it goes. I lost half a stack when a short-stack went all-in pf and looking at 1010 I called - I ended up against 88 - unfortunately for me an 8 appeared on the flop and I failed to improve.

It took another 20 mins before a finally busted out, I was short-stacked and all-in pf with AQs against A8os - the flop brought an A84 and a killer 8 on the turn.

Got 6 tickets left and 2 shots at it tonight......fingers crossed
