back-to-back MTT wins
"Confidence is contagious" Vince Lombardi
Just a brief follow-up to yesterday, I played the same MTT as last night (Absolute 8:30 $10 rebuy) and would you know I actually won it again! I can't remember ever winning back-to-back MTT's. Tonight was 146 players and I took down $1326.
I can only remember 2 hands right now. At the final table, I was chip leader and had 99 and layed it down on a 763 rainbow board against the other biggest stack who raised preflop and bet enough to commit himself on the flop. I felt he had an overpair for sure and when he showed me TT I was really happy. Later, when we were 3 handed, I had a stack of around 560K, the short stack was down to 80K, and the other player with a 180K stack minraised to 40K from the button. I pushed A6 expecting him to fold many holdings here (he had minraised/folded several times) but he called with AT. Board came 345J2 and I was heads up with an 8-1 chip lead. I blew the chip lead and was down 3-1, but then came back to win.
I actually played 4 MTT's both last night and tonight. I final tabled the 2K guaranteed $24+2 Razz on Fulltilt tonight and the $20 HORSE last night on Absolute. In 8 MTT's over the last 2 nights I won 2, final-tabled 4, and ITM'd 6 of them. My confidence seems to be back up. Now I just need some Zen perspective to remind me to bring the ego back down :)

Waiting for an update!!! Last I heard you were still in it late last night going for a 3peat.
Thanks for the interest, actyper. I did go deep and ITM but was bounced out 11th place.
I had a slightly below avg stack, raised an AQ from mid-position, was reraised all-in from a loose-aggressive big stack in the BB and called. He showed 55 and I lost the flip. If I won I would have probably been around 4th in chips with 11 left.
I'm gonna probably play again tonight, come on by and sign up.
Not playing tonight, would have yesterday. Probably try it out on friday.
