brantford $150 bounty
i'll probably be playing this on may 11th. anyone play this one before? how is it?
i found the blinds structure online but i can't find the starting stack size. anyone know what it is? just curious as to the patience factor.

I'll be grinding online this Sunday to stop sn1perb0y from nagging me to death,
Aside from not using TDA Rules, Brantford fails to show the number of players registered on the tournament screen so as soon as somebody is eliminated, players are not sure if the number of players or prize pool is correct. No wonder Waltsfriend was shortchanged the wrong first place amount if so much info is hidden.
Yeah I noticed that as well when I was trying to make up a possible summer schedule for live events. Ideally I'd like to play one a week but in reality it'll probably be less than that.
Is that for all tournaments BlondeFish? I am thinking of playing the $125 on Sunday of the Long weekend.... couldn't find that basic info either.
All "Deep Stack" tournaments have starting chips of 15,000, including the $100+$25 DS on May 18. All $100-$200 tourneys have 20-minute levels. 10,000 chips is for all the non-DS $100-$200 tourneys.
I play all the Brantford $130+ tourneys since the higher buy-ins have more beatable fees. The April - July schedule has been available at Brantford for awhile, so Brantford needs to be reminded to post this info on OLGpoker.com. There are nine good-value tourneys I would want to play for each of June & July (except for Las Vegas & other event conflicts).
anyone else heading out there this sunday? you might want to consider skipping it as i'm pretty sure i'm taking it down lol. i'm mostly heading out because it's my "birthday weekend". my bday is the 13th and i just happened to get number 13 when i signed up, so it has to be fate.
Run good and Happy B-day!!!
finished 13th after losing an all in flip with 99 vs AK. took home 3 bounties for $75 though so made half the buy-in back at least.
i feel like i played okay. was card dead for most of it so finishing 13th isn't too bad.
a few hands of note: had pocket AAs hold twice after calling two different all ins. my favourite hand i had 55 in the BB. folded around to the CO who raises it up. folded to me and i call. flop comes 999 and i check call another bet. turn is a 7 and villain goes all in. i tank call after convincing myself that this villain has cbet every time and has shown he'll keep firing with nothing. he flips over AK and blanks the river and i win a nice pot.
worst hand: i'm on button with KQs and i misread the action thinking that there was a raise and call ahead of me and i fold. it turns out it was a call call. flop comes KKQ and the fireworks go off. i end up losing out on a ton of chips after BB shows K3 after hitting a 3 on the turn. oh well, it is what it is.
just realized this. that's eerie.
i'd definitely recommend them. even the bounty tournament was deepish and had decent play in it. also, the competition really isn't the strongest minus a handful of decent players.
the sunday ones start at 11am every week. with 55 runners and finishing 13th i think i was done around 4pm.
with 80 runners and finishing 4th last time, i think i was done around 6pm iirc.
what about Sunday Blondfish?
I was supposed to be with another forumer at CNE Casino earlier who is now playing the SNGs there, but *&^%$#@! 1D claimed there are suddenly tickets available, but I could find none in the terrible TicketSCALPER site where it just keeps asking you to type in hard-to-decipher security words for every single *&^%$#@ search. OK, it's time channel my
Try morning of the concert, some tickets that were previously set aside/reserved would get released. Also check Stubhub as people may get desperate and prices will drop closer to concert time.
Not sure he posts here very often tho ^^^^^^^^^^^^
^ Thanks for not playing

sorry man, I didn't ask.
cool thanks man, let me know what they say.
Good luck.
