MisterSteve Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 Hi guys, yesterday night I won a fabulous satellite, a seat for the Stadium Serious Freezout Weekly Final, $1,5 million prize pool. In order to get this seat, I played a couple of satellites, very easy in my opinion, but now that i got in the final tournament I realize that I don't have balls to play it, I'm shaking, I am nervous, I can't explain why.... It is the 1st time I get a seat in such a huge prize pool tournament, and suddenly I feel like I forgot to play poker, I am feeling so small, I just can't explain....I'm lost...I feel like I'm a sheep surrounded by wolves...I couldn't sleep all night....I just......I don't know.....will see on Sunday.

gusyonok Posted July 24, 2020 Posted July 24, 2020 just do what you did to qualify-try not to think of the money and play your normal game. Enjoy it and see what happens-if you win a lot, great-if you don't-at least it didn't cost you much and it is a great learning experience for the future. All the best of luck mate! Quote
MisterSteve Posted July 26, 2020 Author Posted July 26, 2020 Thanks guys, I do appreciate it. Less than four hours left till the tournament starts, I feel so much better now, strong and positive. I see myself finishing in money, no doubt about it. Quote
MisterSteve Posted July 29, 2020 Author Posted July 29, 2020 (edited) 3 hours in, I was placed 14th, but 15 minutes later...sadly,out. Lost 1st hand with KK, K on flop, the opponent hit flush on river, I lost half stack. Than I lost a stupid hand, I was 100% that the opponent is bluffing me, I calld all-in with A9, but he shoved JJ....dream over. I can only say that there are a lot, A LOT of idiot players, kinda rich idiots who just want to participate, very very easy big stakes tournament. Honestly, it is a lot harder to play £5 to $20 tournaments, where I can tell, players are a lot better. I am so sad, I lost the chance of my life to win big big money, in such an easy tournament.

gusyonok Posted July 29, 2020 Posted July 29, 2020 sickening when you get those kind of bad beats-especially when you have been doing well-always seems to happen-idiot calls get lucky hits. Never mind-you've shown you can do it and you will do it again! Quote

powellaxe Posted January 17, 2022 Posted January 17, 2022 It's really cool. Did you take part in such tournaments in 2021? How are you doing? It's just that I'm new and wondering how quickly the progression happens. Quote
