oh shit, its still the practice round

[Sabo]

I can't wait until they redraw the seats. My table is still playing its first hand of the tournament.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz ...

[Sabo]

A friend of mine (caveman) busted out on the first hand. No idea why anyone would push all-in pre flop on the first hand of a tournament, but anyway …

(And a bonus: A geep sighting!)

[P.D.X.]

Wait, it's still practice round, right?

[Sabo]

Nope. It's the real deal.

[Shirley]

And what possesses a player to call a pre-flop jam on the very first hand with K3?

[DSafetyGuy]

And what possesses a player to call a pre-flop jam on the very first hand with K3?

I would guess that, with the tournament's pace, there are two parts to the decision. 1.) Playing becomes more tolerable when you have a larger stack early so you can push other players around and keep accumulating chips. 2.) Since it is a free, often tedious tournament, the risk of busting out is non-existent. (I say this as someone who has rationalized risky plays in this tournament in the past with "the downside is I don't sit and wait for something to happen.")

And now second in the tourney (which means absolutely nothing this early). Guy pushed all in with an open-ended straight draw and middle pair. I had top pair and an side straight draw and decided to call because I wasn't sure how into it I was this year. My top pair held and viola, some chips to move around.

[TT2.0]

Man, that sucks.

[Shirley]

My bro-in-law just had a K-high straight flush at Brian's table. He moved up to #23 overall.

I, on the other hand, have yet to take a single pot and have about half of my initial chips.

I won two small pots in the first few hands at this table, but ever since it's been fold fold fold.

We've played 30 hands in 56 days. I can't wait to move to a new table.

That's your brother in law? That was a crazy hand. He was going to win that one anyway (unless he got rivered), but the river was the coup de grace.

We've played something like 65 or so. We're moving pretty well.

[Shirley]

My table played 32 hands. We're waiting on a redraw now.

[Shirley]

Hey Brian. Nice to see you.

[brian]

Same. Has one Swamper ever knocked out another? I'm going to work on that. (Actually, I'm probably going to fold fold fold fold based on the hands I've been getting).

[Shirley]

Well, I'm the short stack at the table, so I'm sure the carnivores have me picked out as the first to cull.

[Gunpowder]

I took like $1500 from membengal LIKE A BOSS last table, so that was close. He was down to his last $50,000 or so after that beatdown.

[Sabo]

I knocked out tennbengal in last year's tournament.

Sorry about that, TB.

[Sabo]

Currently seated at a table with Swamper JPops and former Swamper HoosierDaddy.

[howard]

Fuck JPops. Crush him.

[Sabo]

A handful of people in my company play the WRGPT every year. We have a side bet that whoever lasts longest in the tournament gets $5 from everyone else.

I found out today that one my colleagues was eliminated in mid-December by membengal. FURIOUS BEEF was at the table, too.

Thanks, TB!

[Gunpowder]

I should have eliminated that guy, but screwed up the Bet/Call function and left him with about $1500. Bengal cleaned up the mess.

[Reaper]

I'm now up to 2nd place in the tourney after calling a bluff on one hand (with only a pair of 5s myself), and then a double knockout with pocket Aces that held up.

[Gunpowder]

I was eliminated yesterday. Low stack, called a preflop all-in with A-10, caught nothing and lost to pocket 4s. Oh well.

[JPoops]

This one is for you, Howie.
