Dunno if it’s the luckiest hand I’ve ever played, but from my recent memory, it’s a pretty good one.
2019’s WSOP Circuit event
($330 colossus, Montreal)
Towards the end of day1, top 51 players were making it to day2 (and hit the money).
We’re 52 left, i’m down to one ante!
I shove utg with J8o
Mp raises
Lp 3bets
Mp shoves
Lp calls
I’m facing AA and KK.
Flop 732,
Please, I just don’t wanna be dead on the turn.
Turn T… Oh!!
Nine nine nine!!!!
River 9
Someone else busted in the following orbit or two, made it to day2 with 2.5bb
510 players started the day2,
I won a few flips, i managed to climb a couple of pay jumps and finished 351.
All this due to that J8 hand 😀
