Thanks for the heads up. Kind of lame UB caps the number of observers, I can't get in to watch.

You can.. if you try to start the game.. Then the information box to come up.. Don't click on it and let tha game load. Then after a while you will see the game.

Thanks for the tip. I am in. That seems like a counterintuitive way to get in but it works.

did he mean he has lost $24000 playing at UB this season...or so far he is 24 k in the hole overall??

this is an important stat....cuz if he's down 24k just for his token appearances at UB, thats not great but tolerable.

However, doen 24k overall so far is very frightening when you consider that he had some hi money finishes in a couple of the late events at the WSOP.

And if he is still down 24k, even after those proceeds, thats very scary for anyone to consider wanting to join the tourney circuit.

They don't come much better than Phil (some would argue but he has as good a track record as any aspiring tourney pro could hope for), and his results at the WSOP were also as good as one individual could expect, and yet, nothing to show for.


Glad i didnt quit my job a few months back when i was seriously considering the move after having posted incredible returns online for 6 months...

He was saying stuff like this is the "Record" for worst night ever on UB. I think he meant $24,000 in past 24 hours. He lost $4k in the last 45 minutes (2 hands). He mentioned losing to trips earlier as well.
