Bought a level 1 ticket this morning using my FPPs and pretty much climbed through the levels (2 attempts at level 3). Was a tough day but ended with a ticket to level 5, finally ending my level 4 jinx !!

Dear Myrie16,

You finished the tournament in 1st place.

You have won an admission ticket to 'WSOP Step 5'. This ticket allows you
to participate only in a tournament of this type. Tickets are not redeemable
for cash or Tournament Dollars (T$); if you register and then unregister from
the tournament, your ticket will be returned.

Not sure when I will play (tonight or friday), but will post an update.

So, level 5 ... hmmmmm ......

Cut a long story short, lost a few hundred raising preflop with AKo, re reraised so I called. Flop didnt help so gave it up.
After that my biggest 4 hands were 77 (twice), AQo and A10s.

Very tight table down to the last 6 so I knew how I was going out.

Folded to me in small blind, raised all in (6 x BB) with K9s, BB called with JJ and won the race.

So back to level 4

And so to level 3 after pocket 9s hit the flop against my QQ ...... Grrrrr

Nearly enough points for another level 1, but I might end up there naturally anyway !!!

Aaaargh!! Crass!!

PokerStars Level 4 WSOP Steps. Top two qualify for Level 5, and I'm already guaranteed at least another go at Level 4 for coming third.

I know I shouldn't be calling here!
