I really couldn't get anything going. I was in line for 2 1/2 hours just to reg. Missed the first level completely and then some.I hadn't played a hand for almost one entire orbit and raised with Kd7d in EP because the table was super tight. Ended up getting one caller. 632r flop. SB checked to me, I c-bet and he called. Turn was a 4, SB checked, I check. River is a 5. SB checks, I bet 1100 and he calls after a 30 second tank and I rake in a nice pot.Then I had a couple of small suited connector hands that never hit anything which bled me dry a bit.I made a terrible play with 87dd when I made the low end of a straight possibility, which got me just below the starting stack. Had a few hands where my gut feeling told me the other guy didn't have anything, but neither did or nor did I have enough of a stack to push them off of a Ace high type of hand. Also had a fish type of player at my table doing "blind raises" UTG. I've never seen anyone do this in a tourney and personally think it's retarded, but it made for some juicy pots.Couldn't get anything going and AQhh<54cc on a J56K8 board.It was fun and I had a blast. Wish I woulda lasted longer. I also ran in to Jawa, he had a FCP jersey on. Didn't get to talk to him much.I'll be back for event 13 on Sunday.

GG Huskers. :D Nice to meet you yesterday Fluff. Good luck this week, I'm sure I'll see you around.
It was cool to meet you and lefty.I am checked in at the Ramada Inn until next Sunday which is within 10 mins of the casino so that's nice.I busted from the $1k today about 5 hrs in. I played in a really juicy 10/25nl game from 6-9pm but then it broke.The casino and poker room is very nice and the exectutive casino host gave me a tour of the venue where the wsop-c is being held. The staff seems to be good from what I've seen so far.I hope to see some of you fcp'ers today! I am going to play the $555 at 12pm. Is anybody else playing? :4h:ts:5c:D:club:

Fluff- I'll be back up there Saturday and Sunday. I'll be playing the $235 nightly tourney on Saturday or some $1/2 NLHE and then #13 on Sunday at noon. I booked a room at the AmeriHost Inn. Dude on the phone gave me the cheaper weekly rate just for talking to him about the WSOP-C. I thought it was cool of him to knock off some money for me.If ya wanna meet up just tell me when and where. I don't play the same limits as you, so I can't sit at a table with ya. This goes for anyone else that's gonna be up there Sat and Sun.GL tomorrow Fluff. TID.

Went there for cash games last night w/ Jeff. I lost 1K as fast as Jeff won 1K. I literally never hit a flop, got raised every time I c-bet, and the time I actually made hands, I ran into sets both times. Jeff nailed every flop he saw, people always folded when he didn't have it, and then he has set>set for a nice spot. It was seriously the most frustrating live session I have ever played in my life. I heard Fluff was in the room. When I left around 10:00 there was a game going in the closed off room for the first time I've seen that, don't know what the game was though.For anyone considering going, games seemed super juicy everywhere with the circuit in town

Thanks to all for the kind words and congratulations.....I truly appreciate it. The casino is great and tournament was run great.The last table I was on I played w/ former Illini/NBAer Ken Norman, real nice guy. I made the $$$ a fair amount over ave. but we had plenty of big stacks at my table, will leave out any stories, feel I played well and really wouldn't change any, oh well.. Tourney structure was great til about level 17 I think when it went from 500/ 3k-6k to 1000/ 4k-8k, up until that very nice and fair.Again thanks to all.I am planning on being back tomorrow Tuesday for the Horse, unless something goes wrong at work, so if anyone is around would love to meet up ( I was telling Lefty, who was there w/ me early, that it does get a little lonely down there:(, so if anyone is going to be there on Tuesday, post up, and lets meet up).Huskers20Steve

If you check Craig's List, I'm pretty sure you can find "someone" to keep you company rather cheap, especially in Indiana. :club:

Fluff came down to the poker room on his breaks today and he was above average both times. The last time at 7ish I was busy and didn't get to ask him how close to the money or how many people were left. GL FLUFF! :club::D:ts:D
