Doyles room freeroll a dream getting closer?
Posted On: 04/14/2008 11:58:29

Hi all,

i guess i was lucky last saturday....
When i started the tournament i was seated with Wilder at the table, my target becouse i really wanted that t-shirt. I guess everybody wins sometimes some money, bit the idea of winning something you can touch was new for me....
So that was realy my goal for the night, but it turned out diferent...lol
Maybe some of you remember how i won last tournament on Doyles and to be true the money was nice but I didn't like the way i won.... When it was heads up my opponent just gave away everything.

 So when my stack was growing slowly slowly i started to think of that and i wanted to realy earn a victory on a pokergob tournament.

At that point the patience came back in my mind, becouse that was the way i "won" last time. After doubeling up with pocket Aces I started to play for the victory...Before i knew i was seated at the final table, wich i entered in 5th place. Not realy bad but a little short stacked. My patience payed off when when i was able to kick out Wilder and winning that shirt i wanted from the start.

My day was good...I jumped up behind my computer and made a little dance LOL, i realy liked it....But then the real mork needed to be done: winning the chips of the other short stacked at the table to be able to win the tournament. My plan didn't realy work and the stacks stayed the same for a few hands...
The blinds made us play i think....Then i got pocket 4 and i hoped thet i could do something with that even if it wasn't a realy strong hand. The chipleader went all in.... I took my time and layed down the hand, one of the hardest i ever had i think. As i folded i did thik "why doesn't he do that when I have pocket facecards ore something like that.

Next hand AQ spades came my way and lucky as i was the chipleader went all in so i called. He had KJ if i remember well, the river gave me pair of aces wich was enough to double up....

Now i was the chipleader and i carefuly chose my moments....
When i finally won the tournament i could not believe it, but i whas so happy that i even woke up my wife......lol....she wasn't that happy to be waked up at 4.40am (i din't understand why she wasn't)

Only the day after i realised what i won....a seat at vegas legends, feeder tournament for the WSOP, to be true it's a dream to play there once, but i whas sure that it would stay a dream for me.
Now thanks to Pokergob this dream came a little closer, a little becouse i still have to winn the next tournament to be in the WSOP.

I surely will tell you all abouth it on monday after the tournament....
When i say Dream on, my buddy says: no, just believe in yourself...
and that's what i'm going to try in the next week believe that i can make it in the next tournament and take that ticket to the WSOP...

It would be a nice experience to go there, even if i would be kicked out as first, i think that it would be the pokerexperience of my life...

I hope for sunday that the cards and God will be with me.
Thanks to all who played on the freeroll, becouse it whas nice playing again, just like last time. I feel friends with all of you, and it's nice to play with friends as you all know.
Special thanks to pokergob for this possibility and i wish all of you good luck at the tables....

Greetings Raffa76

Ps: for sure you noticed, but sorry for my english i hope you understand....My dutch is much better.....LOL
