All That Could Have Been

All That Could Have Been

A decent cash in the FTOPS main event. Was playing short for several hours, but managed to survive by pushing. After I finally got called (and won a race), I went on a good run of cards to get as high as 40th before running into the one hand for which I am going to remember the tourney (below). Ended up 187 of 5306 for a buy-in profit.

Here's the hand:
