Anyone playing O/8 WCCOP today?

[Bartholow]

I just won a satellite, screenname CrimeThInc.

[Filip]

No i wont since pokerstars great software thinks its great to move the button so that the other shortstack at the table doesnt have to post the bigblind and i bust in like 20th something when 17 gets seats.....

Well i am not bitter not at all.

[dogsballs]

i'm in, seen acesover8's name there as well

[Acesover8s]

I'm in, treading water so far. I'll start paying attention once the blinds mean something. . .

You playing Friday doggy?

[Ribbo]

I want to play Friday but I'll have to miss the first 90 to 120 minutes. Not sure if its worth it or not. Probably not.

[Acesover8s]

252 out of 587. Stacks been bounching from avverage to just above average all tourney.

Just scalped my first injun.

Nice comeback I see, doggy.

For a tournament, damn right I couldn't. Cash games are far more profitable.

[Acesover8s]

crippled, 407th out of 454. 3 BB stack, I hate poker.

[Bartholow]

Sounds similar to me. I was top twenty with about 600 left, then limits went up and I couldn't win. Went out somewhere around 400th I think.

Tough break. Tournament poker is not a good time to start missing your draws.

I'm struck by how the players seem to be tight and so bad. My double up hand just went like this:

[dogsballs]

u got some crackheads on your table.

[Acesover8s]

Finally above average. 76 of 197

[dogsballs]

scraping along the bottom. 1.5k.

[Acesover8s]

Ok, I'll take you up on that last longer bet you've been bugging me for. . .

[dogsballs]

183 out of 186 at the break

[dogsballs]

out 144th. nothing going the last hour or two.

...back to the sit n' go's

[Acesover8s]

Tough break doggy.

I'm back to crippled from being in 28th for a second, I'm now 115th out of 137

[dogsballs]

u still got 6k. Can let it dribble down a bit. Only takes that one nice hand to hit and you're in the serious game.

[dogsballs]

whoops, I post and look.. Ur gone.


U have a set on that last hand? I see the straight and low made it

[Acesover8s]

Blah, I'm out in 131st, flopped a big draw got all my chips in 3 ways and missed. Probably shouldn't have played it so fast.

[Acesover8s]

AQK5 with nut spades on a 7s Td Js board. If the other guy folded I would've taken the low at least, but he had A23 and second nut spades.

What's your s/n zing? 2+2'er cardsharpcook is also in (chk/rzchuck). In the money now. I won a seat yesterday but had to work. I need to rethink my priorities.

[Zing Zing]

My handle is Premier, ended up around 43rd, after the break just caught a bunch of unlucky breaks (set over sets, busted draws, etc). Oh well, next year.
