wcoop schedule

Got screwed in tonight's Stars sat but won my FT sat so I'm in event 1 of FTOPS tomorrow.

Did nothing in FTOPS 1 tonight but shipped a $215 ticket in tonight's P* extreme sat.

Anybody know how the tickets work? I'm registered for Extreme Satellite B on Sept.1, whatever that is. No way to unregister.

Its just a holding area for satellite winners, then they will issue tickets all at once after these are finished, I'm assuming

I made it into the Sept 1 tourney last night via the $7.50 at 21:00. Great value - will try and do the $27's too...

yeehaw so soft these sats. shipped a $315 today. Strange though, the schedule says it was supposed to be a $82 buyin but was only $27. Stars paid for over half the seats in the sats.

Edit: shipped another $315 ticket today.

Took a brutal late hit in yesterday's $82 for the $1000 ticket. Was sitting about 80 / 150 (124 get a ticket)when I get A's. Jam in preflop, as I don't want any unwanted action at this point. Get called by a short stack with K's......flops the K......wonderful.

Now sitting 124 / 132 in my BB (BB is 1200, I have 2400 in reserve) with A9 soooooted. Big stack who's been pushing all-in every second hand, jams again.

I'm 95% sure I have the best hand here, and I'm pretty sure I can't fold my way to the ticket. Anyone find a fold here?

I end up calling, he shows J8off, and of course flops the straight (online poker is for sure rigged).

End up finishing 132...one of my worst bubble's in recent memory.

But damn, are these soft sat's. Try again tomorrow.

Ok...anyone have a Coles notes on which tourneys we should be hitting up? Been a long time for me on Stars....start at the step one or two's and jump into the WCOOP mtt's?

moose

yeah step 1 and 2 and then the 3pm or 9pm extreme sat.

Yes, before I waste a single cent or second at FTP or any other site with no overlays, I would risk my entire PokerStars bankroll to play the 2/9 PM Extreme Satellites with over $1 million in overlays whenever I can. Since I'm usually card dead, I open up another table to play the evil PokerStars Steps.

:rage:

If this keeps happening to me at JokerStars, I will go busto by the time WCOOP is over. At least I can then beg actyper to stake me for $1 to play in 20¢ tourneys. ;)

step 1 and 2 and then the 2 pm or 9pm extreme sat.

DennisG

the only problem I see, is you can't win multiple seats to the same event and cash them out..which kinda sucks if you can only play one or two of the wcoop events.
