So, who won the Poker Tourney in PHX, anyways? - GoFuckYourself.com

There were about 3 tables left when my pre-flop short-stacked all-in of 3,500 wasn't enough to scare away the gal on the big blind, holding a 3-7 off-suit. /shrug

My pocket 2's were looking good after the cards were turned up, but not so great after a 7 appeared on the flop.

Irony of it all was, the gal that took me out was the same gal that I had saved a couple of hours earlier on what I believe was an all-in hand for her when I was the only one at the table (including her) that happened to notice she had a 10 to the Ace straight while the dealer was declaring another guy the winner with 2 pair. After pointing out that fact, all was well, and I reckon my fate was sealed.

She had a roll of luck like few I've ever seen in the game.... I mean,. who puts 10 times their investment in the pot to protect a 3-7 off suit?!?

Oh well... it was a good time, none-the-less. :-D

I wasn't able to stick around, though... so I'm still wondering who the hell won, and what did the top prize end up being?

No clue, I lost pretty damn fast...but I think it's cuz I made a nice score that morning at 6am in a cash game, so just wasn't feeling the motivation in the tournament like usual...

Plus people always play different in free tournaments and call everything (until you are on the finl tables), so it really comes down to luck

It took me three days to figure out what random people were doing in that room, I never popped in but I also could never see anything other than just people sitting around.

I'm retarded ...
