Wsop 2019

Gogie

In T9’s defense he was down to 47000 and the blinds were coming to him next hand. BB and ante were over 20% of his stack so he pretty much was shoving with any two reasonable cards.

Gogie

Playing the Aria Senior. Scuffling along and down to about 14000 late in level 8. Ad9d in the BB. Utg raises to 1700 and 2 callers so I call. Ragged flop with 2 diamonds. Checked around to me and I check. A on the turn. Utg bets 3500 and one caller. I shove. Utg thinks a bit and folds and other folds so I scoop a decent pot.

Two hands later I get 55 in late position. A raise to 1700 and a call so I call. Flop come 85x, two diamonds. First to act bets 1800. V raises to 3700. I think a bit and shove my last 25000. Folded to V who thinks for awhile and calls. Forget what he showed but he had 2 diamonds and a straight draw. I dodge his outs and finally get some chips. Up to 57,700 at the second break. Avg is around 39000.

Last hand. QdQh in middle position. V raises to 2700, I smooth call and two callers behind. 955 flop with 2 clubs. V bets 3700 and I shove. Folded around to V who calls with AcKc. Brick on the turn but club on the river.

With a shorter stack I would have shoved pre-flop (which wouldn’t have made a difference) but I still had an avg stack size so I wanted to have the chance to fold if an A or K comes on the flop.

On to the next one..... lol... tournaments.. so frustrating at times..

Gogie

WSOP Senior. I’ll try to update occasionally but no guarantees.

Level 1 (100-100,0)

Played a few hands but couldn’t connect on anything so down to about 16000. QcKc in the BB. 5 limpers to me so I raise to 400 and 4 call! Kxx flop. I bet 1000 folded to V (who has been pretty aggressive and he raises to 2200. I call. Turn rag. I check and V bets 4000. I call. River a brick. I check and he checks. I show my hand and he folds. Up to 25700 at end of level 1.

Level 2 (100-200,0)

Lost a chunk of my stack. Dealt AK. Flop comes AJx, bet to the river and V shows AJ. Down to 15300.

Lost a few hands along the way and down to ~10000. Get AQ in late position. I’ve this hand 3 or 4 times already and it’s cost me every time. I hate AQ. Folded around to V who raises to 600. I call and everyone else folds. Flop 65x. V bets 1500 and I call. Turn a brick, V checks and I check. River A. V bets 2700. I shove my last 6000 or so and V folds after thinking for awhile.

15400 at the first break.

Level 3 (100-200,200)

Gogie

Down to 10,100 at the second break so getting desperate. 2nd hand after the break:

Level 5 (200-400,400)

Kc3c in SB. Couple of limpers so I complete and BB checks. Ragged flop with 1 club checked around. 2nd club comes on the turn. I check and V bets 1000. I call and everyone folds. Qc on the river. I check to V who bets 1000. I shove my last 7500 or so and V calls. My flush doubles me up to 21400

Nice!!!

Brian , how are you finding the structure of this event with 60 min blinds and the big blind ante ?

Gogie

The structure is very good, much better than previous years. Even now in level 6 (almost 6 hours in) you can buy in and get 20,000 chips which equates to an M of over 15 (or 40 BB’s for you young fellas out there) That still gives you some play.

Gogie

Made it to dinner break with around 28,000. Playing my usual scuffle poker (somehow I manage to just scuffle along and get lucky once in awhile).

Gogie

Level 8 (400-800,800)

Getting pretty short-stacked. MP with V on my right. V raises to 3700. I find TT so shove my last 17000 or so. Folded to V who calls and shows JJ. Bricks on the flop and turn. I call for “one time” before river and dealer accommodates me with the third T. Whoo hooo, still alive with 38,800.

Doing well. You have the same amount of chips as T.J. Cloutier but more chips than Eli Elezra, Chris Furgason and Greg Raymer. Just make it to day 2 and anything can happen.

Gogie

Busted about half way through last level of day 1 with just under 2000 runners left (5916 runners total). Nothing noteworthy, just got to the point where I was shoving but unfortunately running up against better hands (77 vs KK, AK vs AA).
