Min cash

Last night, I min cashed. Sometimes, that's the most you can hope for, given your stack size, how far off the money you are, and the size of the blinds. I'll certainly take a min cash over missing the money, but it's not exactly exciting :-)

Min cash

Last night, I cashed in my second straight MTT. It was a min cash, as I came in 18th and 18 places were paid. I think the total number of entrants was 90. One definite vibe I'm getting from MTTs is that a lot of not very good players enter them :-) That definitely increases my chances of doing well.

One really nice feature of the software is that you can see where you stand in the tournament at any time. Towards the end, I knew I was really near the money bubble, and also knew my chip stack was really short. I ended up folding my way into the money :-)
