I was sitting to your right at one event. I got there super early. I think I was so tired of waiting (after it started) and just flat out tired that I threw my chips away.
thanks for stopping by wolf I guess posting on this forum worked after all! Now I have to decide whether I should make a run at the weekly TLB. It could be a 4K match agaiinst McEvoy if he wins the week, that'd be kind of sweet. School isn't really optional as a grad student though so we'll see if I can put enough time towards this to have any chance.
Well done indeed. This would be a tough week to run at the TLB with the WCOOP, but best of luck.
I got down to the final 2 tables yesterday of the stars $11 rebuy tourny before having my short stack busted by gavin griffen (wsop2005) - i was soing really well until my internet went down for 20 minutes, and then 15minutes in the last 2 hours.... thankfully both occured during breaks, but i still lost 25mins of playing time at a high level of blinds
16th was good for $434.81
it was a good night, as i also won entry to the $500+30 sunday tourney through a $57 sattelite - i just cashed it for the tourny dollars so i can play a bunch of smaller ($50+5) events
in refernece to my above post....  i was sifting through the hand histories... hrmmm.... think this wouldve changed anything for me?  DAMMMIT

I got disconnected for 30 seconds when I was heads up after seeing the flop when i had him all-in with J9 vs 77 preflop. I figured if i spiked a J or 9 on the turn or river it wouldn't matter if i was disconnected. Fortunately I quickly got reconnected but unfortunately the tournament was still going.
Well done indeed. This would be a tough week to run at the TLB with the WCOOP, but best of luck.
There was only one WCOOP event this week and it actually gave out less TLB points than the normal $215 on Sunday despite the $2500 buy-in since the # of players contributes more to the equation than the buy-in (they take the log of the buy-in in the equation). A lot of the players that went deep in that might not bother playing normal "small $" tourneys on stars I hope.
yeah I don't expect to be able to do it since there are lots of good players willing to put in more hours than me but a couple more final tables would give me a shot if no one has too big a week. Teaming up is a decnt idea but the Pinhead is still in Europe and he's prboably the only person I would trust/has the skill level with my account. I'm not too busy yet so it's definitely doable if I can run good a little longer.
OK, I'm no MTT pro like the rest of you guys, so don't scoff. It's only a Sat, but the best MTT finish I've had in ages...

it will take a fair amount of effort regardless - you may want to team up with someone with your busy schedule
suffering from ding envy. lol
