Dear Sires,

You finished the tournament in 111th place.
A $0.60 award has been credited to your Real Money account.


Congratulations!
Thank you for participating.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 91 hands and saw flop:
- 8 out of 10 times while in big blind (80%)
- 2 out of 11 times while in small blind (18%)
- 5 out of 70 times in other positions (7%)
- a total of 15 out of 91 (16%)
Pots won at showdown - 6 of 7 (85%)
Pots won without showdown - 2

The final hand was spooky... I had pocket As, and went all in after the flop. Here's the hand history of the showdown:

*** FLOP *** [3d 7d 3h]
irishgolfpro: checks
Sires: bets 6216 and is all-in
Switcher1960: raises 78918 to 85134 and is all-in
irishgolfpro: calls 17740 and is all-in
*** TURN *** [3d 7d 3h] [3s]
*** RIVER *** [3d 7d 3h 3s] [Js]
*** SHOW DOWN ***
irishgolfpro: shows [Th 3c] (four of a kind, Threes)
Switcher1960: shows [Jd Qd] (a full house, Threes full of Jacks)
irishgolfpro collected 23048 from side pot
Sires: shows [Ah As] (a full house, Threes full of Aces)

When I went all in, I was already behind. I guess I would have freaked out about somebody playing a hand like T3, but since he was in the BB, it was ok for me. I was happy with all my decisions... and it's the furthest I have ever made it in one of these 5000+ tourneys.

Yay!
