Todd Witteles @ToddWitteles
Yet another missed flop, down to 55k. #pfa20
I'm going to sleep. When I wake up, I predict Druff will have finished the night with 186,000. I am going to dream of bishops being activated.
Please hold on Todd, because according to the wsop's "LIVE WEB STREAM CALENDAR", this event will start streaming Monday @ 2pm. Can't wait...
Let's get ready to ruuuuummmblle!

Lolz table redraw right after taking my blinds. 51500. Annie Duke now to my left! LOL got the whole UB crew today. #pfa20
I demand at least 3 hours of radio devoted to this run and all details of shvartz play ala Pilgrim and your interaction with Duke.
he's back in it.
Todd Witteles @ToddWitteles

Todd Witteles @ToddWitteles
Lost 2 of last 3 hands to fall to 68500. 26 left. #pfa20
BINK
Todd Witteles @ToddWitteles
Won decent sized pot off Annie. Broke 90k for first time, at 92k. 25 left, avg around 100k
That pot crippled Duke, on life support 5 blinds left massive crash and burn.
This is the most critical stage of the tourney. Within an orbit or less you could either be chipleader or go broke
TODD IS GOD
We'll definitely reach the money tonight. There's a bunch of short stacks. I'm sure Druff will be abusing the bubble.
GL Druff. At least he's not a table where a player left like Mike Schneider has position on him.
Terrible table for Druff. They have way less chips so it's more likely more of them will bust before they get down to two tables.
LOVE IT!!!
Todd Witteles @ToddWitteles
Pair of queens takes it down, up to 108k #pfa20
Phil Tom is gone and Druff is up to 108k.

Todd Witteles @ToddWitteles

Going in to the last level of the night after break, 5k/10k. Hang in there Todd :) I might fall asleep soon.
Stay on task Todd. Get this! And fart on Annie Duke for me.
Looks like druff is almost DD
Chan just crippled him
Crap, great playing Druff. Made for a fun sweat. Look forward to the next one.
Cr*p, sh*t, f*ck, p*ss...I'm crying right now and have to go to bed thinking of this...No justice in the world...
Ouch, ul Druff, was an enjoyable sweat, gl in the next one.
Witteles Bubbles Brutally
Posted 17 minutes ago by procession
Action folded to Nicholas Derke in the small blind, he raised it up. Todd Witteles was in the big blind and put in a raise. Derke made the call and a flop was spread along the felt. Derke checked the flop and then raised when Witteles put a bet in. Witteles called all in and the two players turned their hands over.
Witteles' was in front of the of Derke at this point and it was extremely bad news as the turn gave Derke a straight. The river changed nothing and with that, the bubble is burst and the 18 remaining players are redrawing their seats.

Thanks to everyone for the rail and the encouragement.
This is my first actual WSOP bubble. I've final-table-bubbled 3 times, but never cash-bubbled.
Normally it wouldn't be a big deal, but this was two LONG, stressful days, and the bubble was $11k, rather than something like a $2k bubble for one of the $1k NL events. I've pseudo bubbled smaller events before and it barely affected me.
This one really hurts, especially because I had 99k (average was 125k) going into the final level, with 4 stacks shorter than mine.
Here are the 4 hands that did me in:
I picked up Th9h. This is the one hand I kinda regret. Part of me thinks I should have folded it with suited connectors not playing as well at this stage. I opened with it, and got 3-bet by the button. Called. Flop K94 rainbow. I checked, button checked. Turn was 6. I checked, button bet, I called. River was an ace. I checked, button checked and showed QQ. Down to 79k.
After the blinds took me down to 71.5k, folded around to me on the button with QTo. I raised, SB folded, Ray Dekhargani in BB called. Flop 884. Checked to me, I bet, he called. Turn Q. He checked, I checked. River A. He checked, I checked. He showed AQ! I was very proud of how I played that hand, only losing 20k and leaving myself with 51.5k.
I found myself with ATdd under the gun. I considered folding for bubble-avoidance sake, but it was only 7 handed and it was hard to bring myself to fold it. I raised, Terrence Chan 3-bet, I called. Again, 15k invested already. Flop Q98. I check-called. Turn K, check, check. River Q (also making 3 clubs), check check. Chan showed AJ. Down to 31.5k.
Blinds took me down to 24k, was dealt trash for that whole round.
On the next BB I had AKo. Nick Derka open raised from the SB. I three-bet, he called. Flop 652 rainbow. He bet, I went all in for my final 9k. He tabled 94hh. I had a feeling I was going to lose the hand, even though I was ahead. Turn was the heartbreaking 3 and the room (eager for the bubble to burst) clapped, which was further demoralizing. Ace hit the river for the final FU.
:gay
Depressing.
