I've been down to the final 15 or so (when I've played, missed the first week and a couple since). I got through once for a mini cash and even got donked for that 80 or whatever. Was on a path to at least 2nd vs Emp

I was mid game, and blanco sits next to me. We are co chip leaders. I faulter, come back, take the lead, he takes a huge lead, faulters a smidge but we are set for the final.

Playing very carefully. I can fold to the mini cash. The only hand that would convince me otherwise (yes if it was real money I understand ICM all that, it's sbr poker).

Watch the flop then respond, you don't need to read the rest.

As good as Blanco is, I'm a little surprised by the move. I get it, 7 guys left. I had mini raised or raised his blind maybe 3 times total in an hour. Jammed I think twice. He had chips to spare but it was half his stack. Maybe good on the East team charts?

I know you have game bro so this isn't shit talking, more "Joe I have windows folders full of these hands, just though it was particulary brutal and that "it happens"

I'll make the final 12, never haven't.

Probably a no penetrates it's sbr who cares move as we all do lol.
