And it cost me absolutely nothing.
I played two plus hours, and ended up in fourth. I was busted by Jordan, who was likely responsible for taking out more than half the participants. He was on FIYAH! He was actually trying to get out of the game but chipped up really early, proving something I've found to happen quite often in both live and online games: When you play to lose, the Luckbox Gods wave their magic wands and presto - you win! Poker is all about the contrary.
Highlights;
- Listening to Jordan on chat, who sounds eerily like Kevin Bacon
- Talking with Pokerwolf, Biggestron and Drizztdj about how minimum raises are only for Girl Scouts who don't make their quota selling thin mints (OK, I have to ask...what the heck is a thin mint?? Up here Girl Scouts just sell two kinds of cookie: choc. and vanilla). Also how min. raises make the baby jesus cry. except when he's eating thin mints. Coz jesus is all about the thin mints.
So I've won 300 bucks, which I'll be withdrawing some from Absolute Poker to help pay for myaddiction, habit, obsession retirement fund training on other sites as well.
And I have no earthly use for the $200 Nevada Jacks gift certificate as I already own chips and a table. So it's up for sale if anyone's interested.
Many, many thnaks to Absolute Poker, Poker Source Online, and Nevada Jacks for putting this on.

Great job last night, it was cool to see so many people I know get deep in this tourney.
Nice finish, Kat! I'm glad I wasn't the only victim of Jordan's crazy streak.
Nice job Kat. I didn't know about the extra $200 from Nevada Jacks but I probably still had to push with AK when I did. I still can't believe that I get $60 for 6th, just like 13th, while 5th gets $150 and the gift certs. That made the suckout of AQ hurt even more. Ok, enought whining.
BTW, if you want to see if you can transfer the money to me, I can withdraw it to Neteller and then put it in Stars and transfer it to you. If it makes it easier that is.
Thin Mints > *
A pleasure playing with you again Kat.
