anyone read this yet (Making the Final Table)?is it worth getting?

Great - thanks that makes me feel much better.

So last night I played in UB's $40+4 guaranteed and came in 3rd place for $575.

Did I play this right? The table had been very tight - I was shortstacked after a couple of bad rivers and had no reason to believe that Norfolk would limp call with a big ace, I had put him on a medium pocket pair...Is it the case that my bet after the flop could only be called by someone that was dominating me?PokerStars Game #3781242230: Tournament #18779060, Hold'em No Limit - Level IV (50/100) - 2006/01/28 - 05:30:30 (ET)Table '18779060 1' Seat #4 is the buttonSeat 1: becker7 (425 in chips)Seat 3: big_j_dog83 (2485 in chips)Seat 4: corntoes (1090 in chips)Seat 5: Dany1984 (1195 in chips)

Yeah, Linda Johnson said in the last Card Player:WPPC … We regret that due to a contractual conflict, Daniel Negreanu will not be able to speak at the 2005 World Poker Players Conference on Nov. 12 at Foxwoods Resort and Casino. We are pleased to announce that Robert Williamson will be added to the list of Conference speakers. There will still be plenty of great poker authorities and celebrities on hand, including Mike Caro, Mike Sexton, Barry Greenstein, Barry Tanenbaum, Mark Gregorich, Lee Jones, T.J. Cloutier, Nolan Dalla, Mark Tenner, and others. For more information, go to http://www.card

Anyone going to this at Foxwoods on Sat?DN was supposed to speak, but had to cancel due to a "scheduling conflict." Too bad. Wonder if he's still playing in the WPT tourny...

I think its similar to their daily tournament blind structure:NO LIMIT HOLD-EM Level Ante Blinds 1 * $25-$50 2 * $50-$100 3 $25 $100-$200 4 $50 $150-$300 5 $75 $200-$400 6 $100 $300-$600 7 $100 $500-$1,000 8 $200 $800-$1,600 9 $300 $1,000-$2,000 10 $500 $1,500-$3,000 11 $500 $2,000-$4,000 12 $1,000 $3,000-$6,000 13 $1,000 $5,000-$10,000 14 $2,000 $8,000-$16,000 15 $3,000 $10,000-$20,000 16 $5,000 $15,000-$30,000 17 $5,000 $20,000-$40,000 18 $10,000 $30,000-$60,000 19 $10,000 $40,000-$80,000 20 $15,000 $60,000-$120,000

it is a USPC event. They got 334 for the limit tourny earlier this week, so my guess would be double that. I'll be in a Florida Gators football hat...
