Who's playing?

GL to everyone that does enter, I'm really looking forward to this event.

#2 3rd December 2008, 3:54 AM

Thanks - registered and will play in most of them.

#3 3rd December 2008, 4:32 AM

I registered, but I stopped my blog when I took a break, so I don't know if I'll qualify or not.

If I do, I will probably play in most of them also.

#4 3rd December 2008, 5:02 AM

would this be considered a blog?

No this is not a blog. If you want to see what a blog is click on the link in my signature and you can see mine.

Yes you have to have a blog. It doesn't even have to be a poker blog. However - if you don't already have one you can not just create one now and participate. You have to have had the blog for at least 2 months and been relatively active in posting in it.

#8 3rd December 2008, 4:45 PM

okey, but still I cant get the point of blog. Why ppl creating it? To show how much they won?

#9 3rd December 2008, 4:47 PM

Idk if I'm eligible or not, but I did register, hopefully they let my dead blog in

Everybody has their own reasons. For me it is like a personal poker diary and helps keep me motivated.

Btw -I am moving this to Poker Rooms where it belongs.

Whoohoooo...

My sorry excuse for a blog made it in! So I guess you all can expect to see me lose in another freeroll not sponsored by CC!!!

#12 9th December 2008, 10:13 PM

I made it in too - gonna play every game.

#13 9th December 2008, 10:15 PM

#14 9th December 2008, 10:29 PM

thanks for this..I remember Inscore saying something about this litterally a year ago. wow time flies

#15 13th December 2008, 2:40 AM

Qualifiers start Monday, who is in and what games will you be playing? I'll be playinhg the first NLHE, the PLO/8, and the last NLHE. I have no idea how many players will be in each qualifier, but I cant imagine any of them being too over the top, and expect to win my seat in the final

#16 13th December 2008, 4:56 AM

I will probably play all of them; time permitting.

#17 15th December 2008, 7:05 AM

#20 15th December 2008, 6:07 PM

Looks like it will be a pretty large turnout for today's game. I'm really just looking to build a huge stack or bust in the first hour, as I have to go to work shortly after the first break

Yeah, if mine made it I know yours would. Did you register?

#28 15th December 2008, 7:58 PM

yeah I registered way back....when the OP first posted....

I never got an email though..did you guys get emails?

#29 15th December 2008, 7:59 PM

I'm registered. I applied last night and they sent a confirmation email this morning. So I'm good to go.
I'll only do the NLHM games though, and then only if I'm available.

I'm not an MTT player. I tend to get bored between hours 2 and 3 and get over aggressive.
