Playing in the bounty tourney on doyles room dot com, in
about an a hour. Supposed to be Doyle, Mike Caro, and Barry
Greenstein playing tonite. Big money if you knock out 2 or 3
of them. All entries refunded if one of them win it.
NLHE $25 freezeout
I'm drinking beer already so we'll see how it goes. lol
Nothing spectacular have 13,883 compared to average 17,478
117 out of 234
Was running about 50% above average but lost two decent pots in the last 2 orbits and am now below average, both to brett66. He seems tricky, someone i'm staying aware of, anyone played with him before?
The table chip leader was on my lefr but he just got moved. Second in chips on the table and mainly just picking up blinds here and there, no real skirmish
79 out of 152
I really wasn't sure what to expect with this blind and chip structure.
The one nice thing is i've never once felt pot committed the entire tournament (so far) ... i haven't laid down any monsters but i've been just as able to walk away from coin flip situations without significant damage to my stack. I am still shocked at people willing to get it all-in even deep in this tourney with medium pocket pairs etc... even any two paint.
Haven't had much luck today, so I'm going to stop for the night. Been busted out of a couple with nice hands beaten by better hands. Will keep your window open to keep checking your progress every so often.
We are getting near the money. I have barely above average stack, but so does everyone else at my table. No real short stacks to pound, but some players who are scared near the money.
One player specifically, Neutrality is causing me trouble. I seem to keep getting just a bit over extended against him
In the money and now waiting for my spot. Nice advantage of this structure, i'm a short stack but still over 10BB. Still have a little room to manouver, but not much
Board ended 3 Q Q J J ... so got rivered when the board paired up over me and they split the pot.
I really do like the format, and if i can work the timezones i'll try more of those deep stack tournies ... its a good thing our pokerforum tournies aren't deepstack tournies, otherwise they would never end

MrMata is my name!
1230$ profit still a great night
I know i WANT to play with a deepstack of chips, now any recommendations on HOW to do that
User: Chugs

We are getting near the money. I have barely above average stack, but so does everyone else at my table. No real short stacks to pound, but some players who are scared near the money.
One player specifically, Neutrality is causing me trouble. I seem to keep getting just a bit over extended against him
49,812 chips with average of 43978
i'm in 30 out of 94 with top 81 paying.
You're still in it, nice playing since that flush over straight to get your stack up a little bit.
Don't panic, just keep moving decisively.
Good luck!
In the money and now waiting for my spot. Nice advantage of this structure, i'm a short stack but still over 10BB. Still have a little room to manouver, but not much
I'm really not use to playing this long online, I tend to have difficulty staying focused.
27,684 compared to average of 61,044
won a race just before the break TT vs AK against a micro-stack
54th of 68 remaining
after the break blinds are up to 1000/2000 with 100 ante.
Like i said even shortstacked, things aren't desperate.
the 6:15pm start was actually a 4:45am start for me.
I was having trouble sleeping and woke up, saw the deep stack and said why not.
Still at 6 hours and 40 minutes already this is an enderance test, at least for me
Pushed and got called by both blinds AJ and AK.
Board ended 3 Q Q J J ... so got rivered when the board paired up over me and they split the pot.
I really do like the format, and if i can work the timezones i'll try more of those deep stack tournies ... its a good thing our pokerforum tournies aren't deepstack tournies, otherwise they would never end
Get some more sleep. I think AJ had you beat, bad.
then it was AK vs AT ... i know they split the pot
It looks like they split the pot, but AJ got the main pot and AK had AJ covered and took the side pot.
