Shizzmoney 0 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 I qualified to the WPT Foxwoods event (the one Schluman won) through a $24+$2=$200+$20 FullTilt Poker satellite.I'm also going to be in the 1,500 WSOP event this year, and I MIGHT do the 1,500 Razz event, that is if I can get someone to stake me or do well at cash games in the next month or so.

jcpoker 0 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 i played in two of the the WSOP circuit events at harrah's in san diego as my first live tournaments aside from home games and the 2am at the alladin. i came in 24th in the first event out of 455 which paid $670 on my $330 entry (but i had to give $67 to my buddy because we traded 10% of each other. i also had to fill out IRS forms in order to collect the money, so in the end i played for 10 hours for $273 profit - not so great, but it was fun. the next day i couldn't get anything going but still managed to come in 39th out of 180 in the $500 buy (top 18 got paid), yeah i know TP/MM.

Turbo Dog 1 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Does anyobody know if online qualifiers can play the satellite tournaments for cash?The Pokerstars site says:For the time being, there is no official agreement with the host casino to offer cash or lammers for on-site WSOP satellites if you have already won a seat on PokerStars. If you have already won a satellite on PokerStars and subsequently win a WSOP satellite at the host casino, it is up to you to work out a solution with casino management. Does anyone know how that worked last year? Link to post Share on other sites

Freens 0 Posted May 31, 2006 Share Posted May 31, 2006 Not nearly enough. :-)I finished 10th in Aruba, for 20k. Horrible pay out structure, but that's life.Prior to Aruba, I played the WSOP ME last year and finished in 750th place or so. Trip report here: http://groups.google.com/group/rec.gamblin...003ff7d03169ecf Fantastic read! (well written as well as interesting)I wish I could find more stories from "average joes" like this.

NicksDad1970 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I played in a WPT 500 entry fee tourney. I won a 65$ sat.Robert Williamson III called my 4x BB raise with 59d I had AA. He called my all in on the flop. He got a flush and a straight draw on the flop. He caught an 8 to get a straight on the river.That crippled me then I had top pair with no kicker. A guy didn't know how many chips I had and raised me about all in. He had a 3 outer and caught it on the river.A pretty sight to see...a fat bearded man with tears in his eyes driving home.

XX44466XX 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I've done pretty well in the WSOP.On PSP. :icon_clap:In all seriousness, I am going to be shooting for a ME seat on Sat. Tried a few times before with no luck. Link to post Share on other sites
HoosierAlum 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 And, I hate you.No Stud tournaments? I think that is -EV for you.Im pretty sure there are only 4 stud tournaments at this years WSOP. One is 5k buy-in, so I wont be playing that. One is Razz, and I would rather shoot myself than play that. There is a stud hi/lo and a stud hi event with $1500 and $1000 buy-ins that I might play, but not for sure yet. Link to post Share on other sites

mk 11 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 [bad beat story warning] I played in one of the prelim events at the Bally's Circuit event. Highlight of the tourney: crippling Doug Lee. I was probably top 10 in chips with 70 left out of 600 or so runners, was dealt KK and AA within 5 hands of each other and lost both, all-in pre-flop. KK vs. AQ, then AA vs. AK. IGHN.

ilovejulie 0 Posted June 1, 2006 Share Posted June 1, 2006 I'm playing in the $1000 NLHE event on August 3-4. I'll be the deadest money the WSOP has ever seen, but I'll enjoy it. Back in the day, it used to be blowing $1000 at the OG or the Crazy Horse II, but now I'm happily married so I'll blow it on good clean fun instead! Link to post Share on other sites

Sorry greatdane that picture has been bothering me forever, because I always wondered why a guy would wear poker gloves. Makes sense now, sorry. I think it actually looks kinda neat, and adds to a pretty intimidating table image that he already seems to have. They look kinda like my paintball gloves, too. Link to post Share on other sites
