Fulltilt tonight

#1 14th July 2009, 4:42 AM

Anybody playing in the 5ftp $5,000 Guarantee that starts in about 25 minutes?

I'm in it, but I'm not going to nurse a short stack all night in it, got another one to play in the morning. LOL

#2 14th July 2009, 4:46 AM

I had 9.80 FTP, so it was this one or one of the others. I don't really feel like playing poker at 5 am, and I can't guarantee I'd be awake in time for the 10am one, so midnight madness for me tonight.

I'm in a 250+20 (play chips) HU Shootout too, but I got a bye in the first, so I've been sitting here with no one to play against for nearly a half hour. lol

#3 14th July 2009, 4:47 AM

They're gonna be running every 5 hours til July 19th. I'm tempted to skip the first few. Tho I'll prolly play. I imagine this one tonight will have a ton of people sitting out again. Cool promotion tho. GL ALL.

#5 14th July 2009, 5:03 AM

wow. 30,000 people???????? Holy-moly. I wouldn't be able to stay awake long enough.!!!

Good luck and lots of coffee for those giving it a shot.

Final registration numbers are looking like they'll break 26,000 players, but late reg is open still, so who knows.

EDIT: Just got seated (table 338), and stacks are 1,555. they're going all out with the five thing.

#7 14th July 2009, 5:08 AM

#11 14th July 2009, 6:01 AM

#13 14th July 2009, 6:14 AM

i'm singing bohemian rhapsody in chat with a canadian two seats to my left.

it's distracting him enough for me to take his chips pretty easily.

#14 14th July 2009, 6:19 AM

Three pros playing in this one: Lynette Chan, Michael Craig and Phil Gordon.

Just got out somewhere in the middle overall.

When you say every 5 hours does that mean 4 a day or just the 3 a day but 3 every single day? :S

#20 14th July 2009, 6:42 AM

anyone know if there's a special way to distinguish a pro from a regular player on FTP? never played with one before, and i don't really know their screen names.

How many FTP points does 20 cents translate to? New style of play: Sitout grinding.

EDIT: So, second break is upon us. Who's still around?

14,155 chips, still one sitout at my table, but this is officially my first MTT cash on Full Tilt. too bad it's only $.20 so far.

#31 14th July 2009, 7:17 AM

200 points buys you entry to the daily dollar, so at that exchange sitting would be worthwhile.

#32 14th July 2009, 7:24 AM
