Not sure if you bothered to read my original post where I said IF I am fortunate enough to make it to the final table.I take NOTHING for granted, but I am not in for any rude awakening.I won the satellite in a live rebuy tourney, and it is a complete freeroll for me, so it is all plus and I have nothing to lose and everything to gain.remember - if it is possible for you to sell/trade your seat for anything of value (legally, not chip dumping) then it isn't a freeroll.danielNo not possible once I have the seat voucher, it is non-transferrable. I could have sold it before I won it and actually

To even think about making the final table when you are someone labeled as dead money, playing against some of the best players in the worl

That's exactly what I have decided makes the most sense. I have a pretty good sense of humor, which really was the only reason I brought up the goofy hat in the first place.I don't take myself too seriously, however I do take poker very seriously and I have a great opportunity here and plan to do my best with no crazy shennenigans.I will leave those to Mike the Mouth and the poker brat.I will just do my best to play a good game and get as far as I can.I am confident in my abilities to make a very good representation regardless of the outcome.

I just got around to reading the thread. I already decided last night no need for nonsense!If I had FCP gear I would potentially wear that, but I don't, so I can't. If I am fortunate enough to make to the final table, I will just concentrate on playing as good a poker game as I can.I am really pumped up about the opportunity.The structure if it is to believed is a fantastic one for a patient player who can play a decent game:Blinds start at $25-50$20K in starting chips90 minute levelsThere were only 187 people last year and with that structure I can see why it takes a full 5 days!One thing th

Okay now that Patrick is finished, I want a little advice. I didn't want to take away from his moment so I wanted to wait until he was finished before asking for advice for my potential moment of glory.I am thinking positive here, since I know I am a long, long way off from having to worry about this.As many of you know I am fortunate enough to be playing in the $10k main event of the US Poker Championships starting next Tuesday at the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City.If and yes, I mean if I am so fortunate as to make the tv table I want your advice on whether I go serious or goofy.I always were a

Nice job Patrick!

That's fantastic!Keep it up and good luck.I hope you make it to the TV table!

Patrick,Seriously good luck!I hope you make the final table.Miss Idaho, wow, what a great way to start my morning! Great avatar and you do the shirt great justice.

God look at that picture then go to www.wptbootcamp.com and look at her there!Shows what a whole lot of spackel, a good industrial strength trowel and some makeup can do.

While I understand where you are coming from and I applaud you for your new found conscience your thinking is somewhat flawed and the only one who will lose if in fact you are a good poker player is you.Here is why, Poker is no different then business, or life in general. The days of the gold watch and retirement and loyalty either by a company or an employee are long gone.Take for example Hewlett/Packard, when the founders of the company were alive, one of the things the company prided itself in was the fact that they NEVER laid anyone off.Do you think that is still the case today? NO! The

I agree the Wynn is the new avatar leader. Have no clue who she is, but me likes!!I am straight, but also internet gay, so I can fantasize about Ron and Royal!

Man what a lightweight, that's the highest you play?Try this 85,0000,000 / 170,000,000, NLI play this with Bill Gates, Michael Dell, and we used to have Dennis Kozlowski, but it looks like he won't be able to make the regular game for like another 8 1/3 to 20 years.

Currently no. I am contemplating it soon though.

I did have good luck in ring games, and I guess if those freeze up no big deal.I certainly won't play anymore tournies there.There service blows.

Then why play there?With all the damn money they spend advertising on TV, you would think they would get their crap together!

Yeah well that's all well and good, and for one clown at my table with 540 in chips it's great, for me with a chip stack $1k shy of the leader it pretty much sucks.I won't play on this site again until they fix their problems.

I am at the point now where I hate this site. People complain about PS, the software is solid and reliable.You can check your rank during a tourney. If you go to enter a table, say like a SnG the lobby is accurate.PP has none of that and they tournies freeze up.I have been at a limit tourney since 7:20pm that has now been locked up for over an hour and I am/was in fourth place out of the remaining 158.No announcement from PP at all to let us know what is going on. That is something else that PS does in the very rare times they have a problem, they communicate it to their players. What is g

Have any of you had this experience, I started a limit tourney this evening at 7:20pm and about an hour ago the tourney froze.No explanation from PP, and another guy at the table says it happened to him earlier and after a long while they cancelled the tourney and split the money 50% to everyone remaining and 50% by chip stack.This really blows. There were 580 and there are 158 left and I am in 4th place with 10,284 with the high stack at 11,190 and average being 3,671.If this is a regular occurrence on this site I don't think I will play on it again.It is also irritating that they have not m

Well I will improve at poker but you sir will still be a complete dick!Have a nice day.

Correct and in fact they want to pay you in cash so you lose it all in their casino. I have won 2 Blackjack tournaments each for 25k and they actually pay you in $100 chips.The security guard will escort you to the cage and then you can decide what you want to do.The first time I won, I had told my wife that if I won I would bring her $5k, now I didn't really expect to win but I did so I asked for a check for $20k then I took the balance in cash.I intentionally had not told my wife that I won, I told her to close her eyes and put out her hand, then I put 50 $100 bills in her hand!What a great

I think we should all be taking advice, Poker or otherwise from someone who feels compelled to make fun of the mentally retarded.What is so messed up in your own life that, not only do you seem intent on continuing to come after me, which btw is fine, as I am amused by how petty you are, but your life is so shallow that you need to pick on mentally retarded people?Sir I truly do feel sorry for you, you should spend your time elsewhere and get the help you truly need.I have no clue what kind of a poker player you are, and I won't make the same foolish assumption that you are making, that you a

Let me tell you, with my track record with that, anyone that doesn't want me to play it better make it very, very expensive pre-flop.Otherwise I am moving forward with it.See now 2 hands after this one I had 3, 4 suited and another guy was much smarter and bet around 240 pre-flop, that was enough to get me to let the hand go.I really wonder what % of online players are under 18 years old like this gentleman? If this forum is any sort of indicator, it's shockingly high.Are you curious as to whether or not I am under 18 or Hold Em is?

You missed the section on reverse implied tilt odds then didn't you?lolSW :roll:

Sorry I guess I need to type slower for you and make myself clearer, so here goes:When is YOUR book coming out?Unless you are telling me and the wonderful FCP audience that you are in fact Dan Harrington, then I ask again, and for the last time:When is YOUR book coming out?I am truly looking forward to reading your wise and sage advice as I need a mentor.
