Hello,
This image speaks for itself, however I'll give you a little background to better understand it. This is a $3 re-buy tourney to the Sunday Million on PokerStars. I never play re-buy tourneys and almost never play satellites. But occasionally I'll throw some dead money in. I have won a couple to make it worth it. Anyway, back to the tourney. I decided that I was not going to re-buy or add-on. I figured that if I got a couple of hands early on I can get some chips. There are so many people going all-in in the first few levels that getting chips is easy without re-buying. If I get unlucky, I move on. So here it is. I have the Q-Q. The A-6 limped under-the-gun. I pushed all-in hoping to get into a coin flip or a get a worse pair to call. Well, I got FOUR callers. Typical. I hated that one. But when I saw their hands I was pretty happy. Although with five players in the hand my odds decrease, I am still almost 40% to win the hand. The 7-3o is less than 8% to win. Well, I think I have said more than enough. Here's the screen shot.

This might have been my last re-buy. Well, probably not. I laughed this one off and moved on but I thought it'd be a nice piece for the blog.
Keep an eye on this blog for a series of articles on how I won a 180 person $22 Sit-n-Go for $1,080.
See you on the felt,
The Monster Stack
