I think I might have won a satellite at Arlington

[AeWingnut]

I play in Hold 'em tournaments. Last time I was getting short stack. Never had a single winner. Didn't even fold a winner pre-flop or otherwise. Got pocket Jacks decided to go all in Had the best hand pre-flop, after the flop and on the turn... Ofcourse we all know how these stories end. Yep sucked out on the river.

I hate handicapping tournaments that don't consider odds. Why should someone be allowed to win that doesn't have more in $$ at the end of the day than someone that just picks the fav in every race.

The ones I have played only required that you bet a minimum % of your total bankroll. That way a person with a lot has to continue to risk a lot. For some reason I managed to put a lot on my losers ad a little on my winners.

as always.

I had a friend that won a satellite at Arlington. I thought the reason he won was because he picked a horse at huge odds at Keeneland. He knew the horse would run like a greyhound and steal it.

anyway what does 2nd get? Do you have to win it to go to Vegas?

Goodluck
