Strong $ 10 rebuy finishes pump up the BR near 5k

So i had a dominating chiplead in the 10r 2 nights ago going into the final table, but once we got 3 handed i found it very difficult to put the other 2 away and ended up finishing 3rd, they were 2 unknowns to me but played very well 3rd was only worth $250 but ill take it since i bubbled this tournament 9 nights in a row consecutively, and it's my 1st cash in it since winning it so i was more than pleased. Then last night with my new found confidence and a much bigger field that the night before, i played well and went in to the final table 9th/9th in chips, and almost didnt even make the FT at all, but i got there and immediately decided it was time to gambol and play more aggressive with my short stack and it paid off, i quickly dubble up with ak and was up to 60k or so and moved up to 4th in chips, i then proceeded to pick up AQ 3 out of 4 hands in a row and pick up some pots. I also seemed to find hands in the blinds when others were trying to steal them which helped alot. So eventually i get down to HU with the guy who went into the FT with a 200k chip lead on the field, by the time we got heads up we were dead even in chips. He battled it out HU for 20 mins but he was victorious and i came in 2nd for $580 . Which was a confindence boost to me for sure to FT 2 nights in a row and not having done so since i won like i said. Anyways i'm gonna put a run on MSU's 11th place TLB finish a few weeks ago this week, i have a shot to at least out do his points for that week. I'll update that here at the end of the week.

Current bankroll: $ 4,800
