Welcome back KC.

All though I have been playing poker for 40 years... I knew nothing about Texas holdem until I came here and it was your posts that opened my eyes to a new world.

Looking forward to keep on learning from a master.

THANKS for coming back to this great site.

Thank you. I didn't realize I had such an impact on players here! It makes me feel good about putting time in to some work in the past! Hopefully you are doing well!

I'll be playing a few on BCP and Bovada today. I understand the player fields will be low but I really can't get used to playing in them :/

Tonight and tomorrow will be great though!

Glad the surgery went well, and jealous of your time to grind.

Question though, what do you mean about the player fields being low?

Other than the weekends, and even on the weekends, the player fields are very low and it it is hard to make a big score off of a lower buy in. Anything worth while is $50+ and then first place is only around $2k-3k. It just sucks because I used to play $11-$24 mtts for a $6k-10k score...

I see. Yes, I miss the days of $5-$12 games bringing in a few k for first. Fun navigating the 6k people too. I just wasn't sure if you meant that just this weekend was going to have low player fields.

Why don't you play on a merge poker skin? Probably not a big difference, but from what I know it has the biggest playing field for US players. BCP use to be part of merge, but left last year.

Hope all goes well!

Wow, wish I would have played this $7,500 qualifier earlier. I think I sattied in with like 100 pts and only one person had to get knocked out to make it. $1000 for first place and 90/400-55 will be getting payed!

Pretty good deal!

And finally to the FT after a long bubble burst! First place is around $400 but thats not bad considering its an early $12 game.

Looking good being 1/9 at the FT and 2nd only has 27k compared to my 65k with 300/600 blinds!

Let's see how today goes! Up about $200 for the past 2 days.

Can't sleep and want to play but there is no good games. If I get bored and play cash it may not be good for my roll!

Why am I not good at cash but deystroy MTTs?!?!?!

Great start so far! I hope to be around if you decide on playing the 100k. I might even play a little, not the 100k.

Thanks guys! I was thinking about selling 50% of myself in the 100k but I forgot that Bovada does not do P2P and I really don't want money any where else :/ Might just pony up and take a shot!

If not I have plenty of other good mtts to play!

Actually now that I look at them I might play #33, #34, and #35...with a slight chance of playing event #32 by playing a satty in!

You?

Possibly going to get into #33. Thinking about depositing soon. Some on Bovada and some on Carbon.

There is $10+1 5k Guaranteed at 5:45 pm that looks interesting as well.

EDIT: visa didn't like the transaction, so my poker return might get pushed to next week.

Change of plans! Instead of playing in the 100k I decided to play a few others and am trying to satty into the 100k in the meantime. SO there is a posibility that I will be playing the 100k along with these today:

Possibly: $100,000 GTD ($162 BI) @ 14:00 EST (Pending Satty)

1. $12,000 GTD ($11 BI) @ 14:30 EST

2. Mini Series Main Event #32 $40,000 GTD ($109 BI) @ 17:00 EST

3. Mini Series Event #34 $6,000 GTD ($22 BI) @ 19:03 EST
