OK, it's only an all-in satellite, but I'm still claiming it as a win:) A £33 Main event seat for £1.80.
It's about time I won one of these seeing as I'm the inventor.
I first suggested 'Russian Roulette MTTs' in Community Suggestions in July 2012. Then I reposted the idea as 'last chance satellites to big events' in a Design Your Own Tournament Competition that ran in August 2012. I didn't win one of the three prizes on offer.
Five weeks later all-in sats were introduced and they've been running ever since. Two of the prize-winning tournament designs never even got off the ground lol.
£5.75 Bounty Hunter, 84 runners. Won it with a huge suck-out in the final hand. Apologies to UncleNafe who took the harsh beat. I know how he feels having had the same thing happen to me several times.
Final hand I have a dominating K on a K high flop, Smanik hits 2 pair on the turn and it all goes in just for it to be counterfeited on the river. It's important to remember these occasions when it seems to always be going against you.
I won the £2.20 at 2.20 Deepstack Rainman Special yesterday, which got me into the Turbo Open (as a gift from Sky Santa), which turned into a min cash.
I don't usually like to blow mi own trumpet but I won the £5 B/H Sunday and Monday, and F/T it (fin 6th) today (Wednesday) Dunno how to paste the hands but Kerblammo...as they say oop North.. I am now to be named Tom Django...:)

I sat at one of your tables: you played exceptionally well in my opinion. You certainly had my number!
If I recall, at the FT today you went out when your aces got cracked when you had every chance of coming first.

I finshed 2nd dear squire. I fear my heads up game needs some work.
this being the largest field to date i have came first in, final tabled a few of similar size.
a bit shocked, not one single bad beat during the whole tournament and virtually no premium hands all game but i managed to bob around, in and out of the pay zone from early in the tournment.
i had AQ twice and twice beaten with it OOP, only other premium hand was KK which doubled me up v 55.
last hand was AKs > A5os which served me well.
hitting straights & some well timed bluffs seemed to win me most pots.
Didn,t post it last time (the 21st of December) but won the 9.05pm £200GTD again. Was just happy to cash i was low stacked throughout and pretty much in last from 14th down to 6th (73 runners)
Total prize contribution is split equally between the tournament prize pool and player bounties. If you win a bounty you keep 75% with 25% added to your own head value. Late Reg will be open for 30 minutes.
I had a first #1 place in a MTT for a while, £22 buy in BH £750 GTD
42 odd runners, once i got to the final table i was determined to take it down, the talent of play wasnt that great and i felt i had the table sussed, got it in HU A10 V A9 took it for just over £300

Love these Bounty Hunters, my 90th first place in these
