Gratz!

How are the fields in these?

you'll generally have 2-4 internet guys, 2-4 std vegas old guys playing lol tight, one bad player doing super random stuff and the rest touristy fish. ratio is a bit better in the 350s vs the 560s.

my first table was lol hard (esp my seat right to left of two constant 3 bet guys), second table was great, all old dudes + 1 clown, although I ran super bad there. third where I spent most of day 1 was also good, more decent players but they kept losing pots to fish.

The guy who I assume won (had huge CL HU when I left) joined my table late that day and was sadly 2-4 seats to my left for 3 and 2 table play in day 2. he was really, really good, but there were only 1-2 other decent guys at the FT.



an example of the bad random was a guy open limping probably 70% of pots who would occasionally make huge over bets - once on a 7xxx7 board he jammed for ~150eff BBs into a 45bb pot. Opp tanks and folds and he tables 76 and talks about how happy he was to win it there (??). He again jams for 2x+pot with the nut flush on the turn of a Jd4d6dJx board and got snapped by QsQc (lol) - this was for about 350k at 500/1k... J on the river. He had dude covered and has like 60BB still, but he then called two ~25 BB shoves after open limping with Qs6s from UTG. then he bluffed off his last 30bb or so.

Sounds pretty awesome! Thanks for the update. I'll have to play some of the $350's next time I am in town. Only MTTs I've played at the V so far were a couple daily ~$100's that were pretty donktastic, but the structure was turbo/awful.

Well done DR!

Happy new year folks! Thanks for making me a beter player.

The big 5.50$!

Wow can't match the scores above...

Haven't been playing much recently.

Got 4th in a $10 on stars (bought in with FPP as well) for $600ish.

Should have been at least 3rd - rivered by a 3.....A-T < A-3 all in on A flop.

NH willbur

4 way chip count chop when I was CL in Caesars $240, $8.1k.

+2.4k for 4th today in a $130.

wp on both sir

Nice! What sort of field sizes do they get in those?

300 for the $100 and 200 for the $200. these were part of a WSOP warmup series & had a 1k/1.5k WSOP added so they were more popular than normal Caesars events.

chopped a Caesar's $350 (~160 players) HU for $9.1k.

I miss may already.

dr. mcawesome in the house

2nd in the morning 8r for 3.6k on PS, and won a 9.90 turbo FT-paid for 2.3k

1st in a $1 (yes that's right, $1) for $400. 8hrs of my life I won't get back.

Better than busting 8th, losing 7 hours of your life, and making way less! Nice job.

The problem with $1 donkeyshows, is that even when you win them, you still question the agony of enduring that marathon. Never mind the times you bubble

2nd in a $3r for $700ish.

4 way chop @ Caesars $130 for $4.1k.

I meant to click on the MTT winners circle thread but must've ended up in blogs

Not a win and not big and not even really an MTT but...2/95 in $5 rebuy for $241. Biggest cash since BF.

I must play a bunch of games with you but don't recognise your name at all...

I feel silly even posting these tiny wins. This doesn't even qualify as an MTT but I took first in a $10 36-man PLO tournament for $144! Woo!

Good to know I can still turn on god mode in PLO Mtts (I went from shortstacked with 18 left to having half the chips in play when FT started).

Anyway, good prep for my live PLO MTT coming this weekend.

Today I woke up and felt an exhilarating exuberance towards online poker. I immediately showered, as that is what one does when they wake up, and began playing online poker. I made a pot of coffee for the wife and kissed her goodbye as she left for work, spending some time alone with some SrslySirius and Epic Rap Battles of History.

My good mood was soon rewarded, as around 12:10pm local time I defeated the final villian standing in between me and my Hot 33 Victory for $6,360 and change. I then realized that I have roughly a 48 hour window of opportunity for my 2nd Triple Crown, and began grinding hard on Ipoker/Ongame/Party... To be continued

Brag: Get to post in this thread

Beat: 1st of 165 in 5.50 ongame for 187, not that exciting.

First mtt win in like.. ever though.

winning is awesome, so congrats
