Empire - Sunday Night Special

[modaddy]

$40k guaranteed, only 322 entries = $25 overlay per person. Almost makes me feel better about busting out of WCOOP.

1965 at first break. Anyone else there?

[Nick B.]

Yea I am in kind of. I have had a couple bad beats and only have 700.

[La Brujita]

I am in, I am ClaudioReyna, 1600 at the break.

[modaddy]

2nd break, just above average at 2985... how are you guys doing?

[Tosh]

3195 at break.

[La Brujita]

Around 2800, doing ok.

[modaddy]

This was amusing...

I wasn't paying attention and went to raise the blinds on a steal before realizing I was actually reraising.

The rest was history.

You guys think I should be reraising the turn & river?

[Nick B.]

I have 5800. My table is the loosest table I have ever seen.

[modaddy]

What's your handle?

[Nick B.]

Tepop84

[Tosh]

Stalling a$$ at my table. In my current mood I am liable to go nuts at him.

[Nick B.]

Just had AQ, KK and 99 back to back and won them all with two going to the river. Up to 8500.

[modaddy]

This new hand-for-hand policy on Empire SUCKS!

GL to everyone on the bubble.

[MrX]

"My wife just dropped a brown trout in my closet..she can be a real bufoon sometimes."

on the bubble too. At TEPop's table with about 5k

[La Brujita]

I have the distinct pleasure of being in last place.

[MrX]

No matter how I do in this my side N20 SNG's at Empire were a record tonight.

stretch of 8 NL20 SNG's: came in first 7 times and 2nd once. I cannot remeber a run like that ever.

[Tosh]

Your stack is ridiculous, good job.

[modaddy]

OK this hand-for-hand stuff is going to reduce me to bad hammer stories...

[Tosh]

Show that hand to Mr. Strassa. /images/graemlins/grin.gif

[modaddy]

$25 overlay == worth this hand-hand torture?

[Tosh]

If you play Party/Empire you have to tolerate it. Simple as that.

[MrX]

89 beats my A8 to make a major blow to my small stack

[/ QUOTE ]

Yup, and the player that called all in to my UTG raise with 89s.

[Tosh]

Out in 31st. /images/graemlins/frown.gif QQ loses to A6o.

[modaddy]

Nice job Tosh & IamX.

I'm still at 15K with 20 left...wish me luck

[Tosh]

Good luck. /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[MrX]

out in 29th. But the highlight of the evening was my wife winning a play money SNG.

We had to take a picture of the screen. LOL

Good luck Momoaddy

[modaddy]

your wife and my wife should get together LOL....

Mine just played her first $5 SNG (up from $2) today and got 3rd.

[modaddy]

12 left, I'm in 2nd.

Open mouth, insert scotch.

[modaddy]

Out 10th... my cowboys ran into aces and it was a bloodbath...

Should I not cap preflop?

Should I check-call the flop?

Should I fold when check-raised on the turn?

Sigh...

I don't know beans about limit, but congrats on tenth! /images/graemlins/smile.gif

[Tosh]

Limit is g00t!! Only chumps who like going all in a lot don't play it. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif

[Tosh]

Unlucky on the hand, nothing you could do unfortunately.

Limit is for wimps who can't bear to risk their whole stack on one hand. /images/graemlins/wink.gif

What good is a big stack if you can't pick it up and bang someone over the head with it?

[Tosh]

Hah! 1 decision - should I put all my chips or not, how hard is that? You play limit you make many more decisions, therefore more skill must be involved. You know I'm right. /images/graemlins/tongue.gif /images/graemlins/wink.gif

[La Brujita]

Congrats on the final table! Nothing you could do here.
