Hey MTT buffs,
The WCOOP starts tommorrow, and Massimo and I are going to be covering it. Details are offered here: http://www.flopturnriver.com/blogs/archives/17

We will be updating this blog continuously through the rest of September, so for full WCOOP coverage go no further than FTR!

Anyone who is in any WCOOP event, please PM me after you bust out, sending me any interesting hands (the hand you busted out on will be good), and tell me what place you got so I can cover how well you did. You can post it in this thread if you want.

Event 1 is tommorrow! I wish all FTRers much luck!

-ISF

I actually don't think many of the big MTT pros associated with FTR are playing any. I may just be talking out of my ass though.

Good Luck All!

As everyone knows, chardrian took 3rd in the FTOPS V Main Event. Hopefully someone from FTR will kick ass in the WCOOP as well. Wink

Hey guys,
Max has told me that triptanes and hartlin both entered event #1. I did not know this. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone who enters any event contacts me so I can cover how well you do. It would also help me if you send me HH's where you made a great play or was faced with a tough decision. I know this is somewhat of a burden, but it would be really appreciated.
-Danny

P.S. Please tell me what place you both got.

Thursday .. playing the $215 rebuy
Friday .. playing the $215 razz
Saturday .. playing the $530 PL
Sunday .. playing the $1050 NL
Wednesday .. playing the $320 6max
Sunday .. playing the $2600 main event (hopefully)

Update on last nights $215r:

AK > AQ at the end of rebuy hour so with addon, I have 18.5k in for $615 (minimum)

I really stayed around this amount for 3 hours. Some significant hands that came up .. ran AK into AA for a 20k pot, so back to 10k. I grinded back up to 20k only to run QQ into KK .. back to 10k! And again, I grinded back to a high of 27k but played a pot with 77 vs a maniac BB which put me back to 20k.

I got moved to a new table and there was a player limping every single hand and calling every single raise, so I knew I had to be patient and wait. So sitting at about 15k, I picked up KK, pushed over a raise, got called by AQ. You can figure out the rest Smile

Played 6 1/2 hours, 150 from the money. Today is a new day. It is razz time.

PS: I'm officially playing the Main Event Very Happy
