14 players chop the June $15K freeroll tournament at River Spirit

Yes, I was among the bottom 7 players.  AA < KK for half my stack put me in the bottom half.  A steady stream of unplayable hands kept me there.  When we chopped, I had around 60k chips.

$15K Freeroll -- chop for 6th place money

I played in the River Spirit monthly $15K freeroll today. 92 players entered. I was chip leader for blind levels 6 thru 10, then took three beats in rapid succession to move into the bottom half of the field. We chopped it going into blind level 13 (3000/6000/500) with 14 left. The top 7 got 5th place money. The bottom 7 got 6th place money.  I wrote it up for examiner.com, which you can read here.

It took them 2 hours to process the payouts. While I waited I sat down in a cash game and won an additional $260, putting my total winnings for the day at $1,111.

After suffering from insomnia last night I'm completely exhausted.

Maybe I'll attempt a play by play later, if I can remember the hands. I'm guessing I won't remember most of it though. Just too damn tired.

Good news is my BR is much healthier. It was $400. I added $700 of my own money yesterday. Add to that today's win and we're at $2,211. Feeling good about it. The pressure is off.
