I don’t know about you but making final tables isn’t quite as fun when you are not grabbing the ring. How can anyone run so good and never get there? It seems almost impossible to make this many final tables and only have 2 wins to show for it. On the other hand I have seen J.C. Tran constantly make final tables only to run into bad luck before he had his break through year. To say that I am frustrated would be accurate. I do realize the math has to catch up to me sooner or later. Going over my final table histories I found one situation where I made an really poor fold with [A][K] that would have put me 2nd in chips and positioned to win the tournament with 5 players left.

It happens.

The other tables I felt like I made all the correct plays. Ultimately we all have to be consistent and true to our beliefs and style of play. For as  frustrating as it may be now to make so many final tables I could just as easily run off 5 wins in one month. Things tend to come in waves in this game. I suppose I should be glad those waves aren’t drowning me.
