Seeing Stars

Hey, this is different. Playing a random $10 MTT on Stars, and I'm moved to the same table as Toby from The Nut Heart Flush.

Pretty cool.

Not so cool losing with a dominating hand -- QQ v. AQ. A on the turn. Out 71st of 1192. Stupid queens cost me a third of my stack earlier, too, going down to A9o. At least I had a classic Riverstars moment earlier, needing to catch any heart on the river to beat a higher straight and stay alive, I catch the card that fills my inside straight flush draw.

I can't see doing this kind of tournament on a regular basis -- surviving 1100 others to "win" about twelve bucks above the buyin? Madness. But since it appears that Prima is axing a lot of their MTTs, I may not have much choice.
