Jackpot!

I finally won two tourneys in the same night again and this time it was good for a jackpot. I won the 2 Big daily doubles on Full Tilt that start at 10:00 and 10:01 pm est. These are usually 15k guarantees and get around 250 players or so but the $30k jackpot was hit just in June after not cleared out for a while and they were only 10k guaranteeds this night with just 190 players each. They are $75 buyins btw, $60 going to the tourney pool, $9 to the jackpot, and $6 for the fees. Each win was worth $3k, and the final jackpot figures were...

mattster24 $9,351.32 Double Win
mattster24 $831.23 Double Final Table
mattster24 $249.37 Best Double Finish
mattster24 $93.51 Double Cash

so around $10.5k, pretty solid.

I went down and played some blackjack afterwards and got down to $180 and put it all out there, and got some sort of hand I needed to double on, I pulled $140 out of my wallet and doubled for less, that gave me $500 to work with, I left it all out there and doubled that. I now had $1000 which was the table max so I figured may as well table max it one time, her up card was a 6 and I squeezed(it was a doubledeck pitch game) out my cards and the first was a 3 and the second was an 8, the pit boss watched as I squeezed and he was laughing as he knew I was going to have to find some way to double this down. So Karec ran up to the room to get another $1000 so I could double down. He got back I put the $1000 out there for the double down and she gave me my double card(face down) and she turned over a ten for 16 then an 8 or something and bustoed. shew...
