    The 3 bad plays I made were:
    Chasing a flush with terrible odds = loss of half of stack
    Chasing a straight against opponents made hand, hitting trips to lose half (after building back up)
    Then KOed by a donk call on final table.

    In essence, my reads were at their optimal level in both tournaments, I knew the times I was completely beat, knew when I was marginally favored, and was able to swiftly adapt to each of my transfers based on whether the table was super tight or super aggressive. - Some hands I played were terrible, but in these tournaments, I played much better than I have in any tournament since I started playing poker ~2 years ago.

    I can understand why you are asking why I say my results were good play, but I can assure you, the field was not exactly full of donks.


    ~ The other hand: I know what variance is, I know that many people can argue I just had a string of good "luck" or good variance. However, Looking at my hand histories from previous tournaments in comparison to these, I played a much more solid game.

    I didn't take any devastating risks, as I have in the past, and didn't get tilted like I would have in many similar situations. Ill just say, that the biggest accomplishment I had here was the experience I gained and valuable information I learned by observing my opponents. Does my accomplishment make more sense now?
