My tournament was a little up and down. Started the day with $49,000 in chips. Bet strong with top pair, second kicker and was raised all-in by "Nemo" who was on a flush draw, but caught runner-runner straight. Would have been around $75k after that one. Then, lost a bunch to Mario and found my self a few hours in down to $14k! Argh!
Luck turned a bit, caught some nice rivers on "diddy" and worked my way back up to $55k. Went card dead for a LONG time and finally with $23k, pushed all in -UTG with AQo and blinds at 1,500-3,000(100). TiMSuM in the BB took a while to think about the hand as I was filming a bust out on the other table. He finally called and turned over QJo. Yes!!! Flop brings a Q and the turn is the butt-ugly J and I'm out in 12th.
It was a bit of a mixed blessing as I'm now completely free to tape.
It was a long, and exhausting day of poker. I made up for it by consuming 10+ drinks over the course of 1 hour afterwards.
The one river that Rob mentioned with me that mattered was my Pockets 10s vs his A6. Flop KK6, turn brick, river Ace. That was good for 15000 right before the dinner break.
I was up and down for most of the day. I took a lot of chips of Xuan early on, only to redistributed them to the rest of my table. I had a good 60000 pot vs cole with 88 vs his 99, that hurt, and a 50000 pot vs. Tim, my K10 vs his JQ where he git a Q on the flop or turn.
When it's all said and done, I'm very happy to be able to play next saturday. With the blinds being rolled back it should make for a lot of really good play. Looking forward to it.
Such a good night. I watched a bunch of the tables for about 2 hours before we finally got a side game going. Thanks a ton Rob, today was my second time ever setting foot in your home (the first being Saturday) and it was totally awesome. Thanks so much!
North...we missed you at the holdem & omaha cash games/sngs/props games/donk off what you made at 3am game.
Just one hell of a tournament. I just hope everyone appreciates all the work you put in to running this show. Job well done and a GREAT TIME was had by all.
What an outstanding day of poker at BSN&C!! (again!!!)
I think played some solid poker today, with my luck holding steady.
Down to 8 at the final table, I have :ad :3d and raise to 15k, obviously trying to take down the blinds and antes Bob re-raise All In, and it's another 4500+ to me. I call, Bob shows the same hand that quadtripled him up earlier in the day, :10c:8s. I turn an Ace, and take it down.
Two hands later, Moose (to my right) limps , I re-raise All with :jc :jd, and he folds.
The very next hand Robs raises to 15K, I shove All In with :ad :ks. Moose calls out of turn, and I look at Mario (who is dealing) and say, "I think I might be behind here" He replies with "Yeah, I think so!" which is sarcasm for"Well Duh!!!' Everyone folds to Moose who calls showing :ac :qc! Moose gets no help, and we're down to 6. Great Game Bob and Rob!!
This is been a great tournament so far, with the best yet to come. Thanks again to Rob for setting this up!!!

Excuse me? I don't limp. It was 3x the blind buddy.
I was impressed with the final table. I thought everyone would try to weak tight their way to tv but the action was fast and furious. Cole managed to donk off 110k in chips in 3 hands.

It was soooooted! Â :D
Thanks Rob for hosting a great tournament so far, I think I was behind in all of my all-ins yesterday, and I've won them all...from what I remember:
55 (sirwatts)Â vs A9s...A hits the river
1010 (xuan) vs AKo...K on flop or turn
AQ (zithal) vs QJs...Q flop, J turn
K10 (diddy) vs QJo...Q on turn
Can't wait to see the DVD! I hope I don't get ragged too much about these all-ins.Â
It's going to be a great final six, I'm actually suprised I made it so far considering I started the day with $10,500.....see you next Sat! :as
I am trying to understand this play from Bob, the Milton uber rock. Was he in the big blind? Even if there were sufficient pot odds not to fold to the 15K raise, wouldn't it be a better EV to just call and survive with 4,500 chips if he doesn't hit anything?
Anyway, congratulations to the hugely underrated 1D players. Almost half of the players who were in the money came from the final day of preliminaries.Â
Thanks to Zithal for a great tournament. I look forward to more WSOP simulation tournaments. I am hoping to play in another 10,000-chip tournament next week.

Isn't it being stepped back to 1500/3000 ?
That's even more play :P

I ws BB and with the antes and blinds at that level I had to take a stand with something, I had won previously with 8 - 10 and thought what the hell.

That was something to behold. NO SUCKOUTS FROM MARIO!!!!
Are you going to deal the FT next week?

You have my humblest of apologies, Rob. I meant no disrespect.
It was soooooted! Â :D

What is this? The touchy-feely board? Do you want me to come over and give you a hug?
