I am registered for it, but if I do well in the 2+2 it won't be on the forefront of my priority list.

I'll be in it. A free shot at a Bahamas package, so I don't see why not to.

I'm in, table 84.

Much tighter than I expected, I figured a vast majority of the field would be clueless.

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
It doens't have to be a poker blog.

Any blog 2 months or older will do, though I dont know which kind Benneh has.

Search my ID (kneeco), this is the only thing I'm playing, so you can find it that way.

ah ok.

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
i am easterbunny5 on table 103. this field is so big for such small prizes, I'm just gonna go crazy early and try to get chips.

Here's how we donkeys role:

PokerStars No-Limit Hold'em Tourney, Big Blind is t30 (9 handed) converter

UTG+1 (t1905)
MP1 (t1925)
MP2 (t1940)
MP3 (t1465)
CO (t1980)
Hero (t2600)
SB (t1220)
BB (t2550)
UTG (t2415)

Preflop: Hero is Button with J[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">5 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t160</font>, Hero calls t160, <font color="#666666">2 folds</font>.

Flop: (t365) Q[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img], A[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 5[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
CO checks, <font color="#CC3333">Hero bets t120</font>, <font color="#CC3333">CO raises to t1820</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: t2305

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
My table is really soft + many are sitting out...already up to 5.2k

AlmightyJay 10-23-2005 04:28 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
AA from the CO, folded to me, I raise 4xBB to 120, SB min-re-raises me, I re-raise to 600, he pushes, I call, he has the other two aces. SWEET.

QQ UTG, I raise to 120, folded to BB who re-raises to 500. I call. Flop comes with an A, he bets, I fold. Nothing else I can do there, right?

According to the prize page they're giving away ~$27,000 in prizes. That's around $18 per person, not counting no-shows.

For a freeroll that didn't require any play or much effort I think this is a really generous prize pool and a cool thing for Stars to do.

Any prizes for 1293rd?

You win a free post in the MTT section of 2+2 AND a new blog comment.

montechristo 10-23-2005 04:43 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
I definitely agree that sponsoring the tourney is a great thing for Stars to do, and I'm not complaining about a freeroll! Just trying to say that it's probably worth more for me to try and chip up early or just bust.

10-23-2005 04:48 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 

I'm in, 2K in chips despite running smack into AA and KK once each already.

Not really taking it seriously as it's a freeroll, but if I can win, that'll be cool.

10-23-2005 04:51 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
I'm in. Table 163.

KneeCo 10-23-2005 04:53 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
I've drawn the tightest table in the history of freerolls.

No one at the table has gone bust yet.

I've got two sitters, but still, dying for a move.

10-23-2005 05:02 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 

T2040 at break.

Got up over 4K, then paid a few bets with hands that were kicked, and paid good odds for draws that didn't hit. In other words, pretty standard stuff.

A_Junglen 10-23-2005 05:06 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
8.1k at the break.

During current Hold'em session you were dealt 101 hands and saw flop:
- 7 out of 11 times while in big blind (63%)
- 5 out of 12 times while in small blind (41%)
- 13 out of 78 times in other positions (16%)
- a total of 25 out of 101 (24%)
Pots won at showdown - 3 of 7 (42%) Most of these were checked down from blinds
Pots won without showdown - 20

10-23-2005 05:07 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
1925 @ 1st break. Was at 5200+, but after getting QQ twice and running into A-rag, I am back down. Too many sitters. Only about 400 eliminations at first break.

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 

You're not kidding. I nearly doubled up that level by raising roughly every third hand.

lighterjobs 10-23-2005 05:28 PM

Re: who\'s playing the blogger tournament today?
 
I had to take care of some business for the first 45 minutes of the torunament and I was blinded out before I got back. damn.

10-23-2005 05:29 PM

That was so mind numbing...
