p.s. i final tabled a live $60 tournament last night and came third
the last few sessions i played of cash i felt like i was going utterly insane! figured i'd give playing mtts a semi-serious try

congrats on the finish even though i bet it feels like a loss. a couple months ago i played in a $65 live freezeout at a casino and also donked off in 3rd. it was such a bad feeling seeing as i had like a 5:1 lead over the last 2 players. was only my second live tournament and the payouts were so top heavy, i won like 185 and first was over 800.
yeah the one i played was top heavy too. first was $2200, second was $1100, and third was like $535 or something. when we were 3-way there was like 25 big blinds at the table, i probably should have suggested a chop.
