Im not goin to bother posting my bad beat story here but if any of you were watching the final table then u will prob agree based on the stage of the tournament and the play pre-all-in, that has got to be the sickest beat I have ever had in my 2 and a half years playin poker.

it"s called LUCK mate - it sometimes happens in poker. ;)
i recall an occasion early on on the FT where you got lucky!
can"t believe some of the bad comments made about the eventual winner tonight.... "someone knock this donk out", not a desrved victory" etc..... the guy won fair and square.... may have got a bit lucky but there is no way you can completely luckbox your way through that tournament tonight.
Everyone"s a cardrack at some point!

I definetly dont remember me giving a suckout when I was 5% to win. But what can I say, used to it by now on big final tables.
Definetly not disputing the fact that everyone must have played excellent poker to carve through that field but the fact the final table was taken down by bad play getting rewarded is a shame. And may I point out that I never called the eventual winner a donk. Maybe that is APAT/Blue Sq"s fault for a poor structure that had the last 50 or so players were playing out an all-in fest. Definetly think the structure needs reviewing.
GG everyone, I really enjoyed the tournament but obviously with poker tour packages added to the top three, 400 odd dollars is not enough to take away the sick feeling i have at the moment.
