on Pokerstars i played the Turbo Takedown satelite of 60FPP with 100 person, 6 max.
I won that and made my way through to the Turbo Takedown tournament last night at 20:30, started off a bit rough with my AA being crushed etc, eventualy made my way up to 75K chips and continued to beat people without bullying too much...

Made it for 5 and 1/2 hours untill it was down to less than 200 people out of 17,500...

People were starting to bust out very slowly now and i had about 200K in chips, average was about 150K.

Someone raises me and i re raise sitting with AQ sutied, he shuvs for 150K and i call with AQ knowing he is a lucky fish, he shows 9 10, and flop comes with his 9 10. Im thinking okay its all over for me now with only 50K left...

So i start to just sit there not playing poker, just letting my hands time out every single time as i know the cash prize is a lot different for another 50 people...

so i wait and 100 people get bust out and i eventualy finish in 135th place

cashing in $500.... the most i ever cashed is $10 in a single tournament. not bad i think

129th you finished m8 nice going shame you couldnt hold on any longer the cash prizes were good though

oh okidoki then

on pokerstars. when i cash out, whats the exchange rate like ?
and do i need to exchange my $ to £ first before cashing out ?

Nice job mate shame you couldnt make it to the last table 500$ is prtty good congrats
