Live: WSOP Seniors, Tbilisi, Montreal & Global Casino Championship
I didn't have time to set up a BAP before my WSOP cash last summer, so I'll start an interest list early. I will play a lot of live tournaments this year, including the following $1K+ buy-ins:
1) WSOP Seniors Event, U$1000, June 17-20, 2016: cashed in 31st out of > 4,000 players for U$15K or ~C$21,000. Prize pool was U$3,773,700.
2) WSOP Georgia ME, U$1100, March 6-9 (2 flights if necessary): guaranteed prize pool is >= U$500,000. If I win ME and therefore qualify to the season-culminating WSOP Global Casino Championship, investors will have a freeroll share! The US-only National Championship in 2015 had a prize pool of U$1,220,000, but the ESPN-televised event will be bigger in 2016. WSOP Georgia is in Tbilisi, Europe, which is much more +EV than playing in Georgia, US, as DirtArse can confirm after playing in WPT Tbilisi.
3) WSOP Montreal ME, C$1675, Day 1B, April 29-30: previous pool was almost C$600,000. If I win ME, I volunteer to give the investors in this BAP a free share of my entry to the WSOP Global Casino Championship.
4) Hollywood Poker Open Championship, U$2,500, June 24-26, M Resort: last year's pool was U$1,542,420.
5) WPT Fallsview, C$2,500 Event, February 19-22: last year's prize pool was C$1,418,916.

Payment can be made as before via EMT, Paypal, partypoker, in person, or PokerStars by Thursday, February 18. I will be at Fallsview much of the time from February 12-18, and possibly at Casino Brantford on February 11.
In case I end up not playing one, I will let you know which of the many events I will play as the BAP replacement(s) to still total >= $10K in buy-ins. DirtArse, myself and another friend will be travelling to Tbilisi (along with WSOP TD Jack Effel, Kara Scott, etc.) so I will be sharing our photos, videos and trip reports on Facebook from Turkey, Georgia, Las Vegas, etc. Let me know if you want a poker chip or something else from these places.
"If one was to judge from the attention that Georgia's national media are paying to the event, the country's first-ever WSOP Circuit event is set to become a true milestone for the poker industry in the region."
Forum members DirtArse & Beefylogs played in WPT Georgia last year and according to them, it was the worst group of players ever since poker is so new there, even worse than Rama,
Anybody interested in $19 sweat equity?
The final table also gets a gift, e.g., Mike Leah winning Event 2 today. Unfortunately, I was the final table bubble boy in Event 1.

I did not cash in the BAP's $1,675 WSOP-C Montreal Main Event 1B yesterday. I did win a $3,500 WPT Main Event entry in a Playground super satellite. I made another final table in WPT Playground Event 11, cashing in 8th place. I will play the $390 super satellite tonight at Playground.
