I wasn't that close to the money. About 600-something people were left when I busted, and the money started at like 250th or so. Had awhile to go.
Also, I never had chips in this except for a very short period of time right before and right after dinner. So it felt like I was fucked most of the way, followed by brief hope, followed by busting.
It is irritating that I ran up my stack TWICE after being in bad shape to about average, but that's donkaments for ya.
I am much less frustrated than when I bubbled on Tuesday.
I do hope I don't end up batting .000 for the first WSOP ever. I'm now 0/3 (0/4 if you count the fail "Giant" event, which I don't), and have 5 events left. I have cashed at least once in each of the 12 WSOPs I played from 2005 to 2016. Interestingly, I haven't yet benefited from the change of 15% cashing (used to be 10%). Every cash I've had has been a top 10% finish.
