ty m8s.. i'll try to give my best - only top 20 paid for now (180 registered) but i think it will be more players.

it's my first big event (and really huge step because it's 20-30 times bigger difference than my biggest event so far). i can't lose too much here - only 22$ that i gave for buy-in for that satellite so i'm not on big pressure (now i realize why is too much better to win a seat throught a satellite than direct buy-in)

and next thing i realized what was my mistake, is that on bubble time on tourneys and on big events where players are on pressure ("bubble effect" or "i paid too much for buy-in" effect) everybody is playing really tight and conservative. hands that you would play (and raise - or even call a move) in lower tourneys (like low pp, AJ, even big pp like 1010, JJ or QQ) don't look too good here as they look in lower tourneys (because of those two "effects"). so people are usually folding awesome hands just to make into money or they are always paranoic that somebody has AA or KK.. so my point is that on bubble time or on big tourneys good aggresive play is the best style of playing (in bubble time for making stack for top 5, in big tourneys for making stack early).. i'll really try to play good, i had good plays last week, but last two days i had awesome suckouts on turns and rivers so - i'm sceptic.. (but as i said, i'm not on pressure because i can't lose anything - i can only be on profit here).. thanks for great wishes, you'll be informed in BBP freeroll tommorow (if i don't get drunk for finishing in top3 positions)

just kidding
