I am posting to request some rungood for 2 tournaments I will be playing towards the end of January. I will be playing in events #1 and 2 in the Fallsview Poker Classic, which are a $1k buyin and $2,500 buy in. Both will have a field of about 500, so if I run good, I could come away with $100k+

Poker gods, please help me!

Good luck!

Just a question; have you won tickets to these events or just buying in directly?

I am actually being staked into these tournaments. I was approached by an interested backer who wanted to buy me into the $5K main event, and I wanted to do the first 2 instead of just the main, so we settled on that.

Thanks for the GL wishes, hope I can post some mega results.

How does that work, what percentage of the winnings do you get?

Gl! Don't be intimidated by it being your highest buyin. I played the 10k WPT Bay 101 San Jose tourney this year and what got me out was the biggest donk there. This guy played 47off in middle position and flopped 2pair vs tptk. 10k was like 100 bucks to him, he didn't give a chit and was playing a ton of hands. I was comfortable playing with the professionals like Cunningham, Katchalov, Rettenmaier, Lindgren, Weissner, etc.

Thanks for sharing JS. I am really confident I have the ability to play and not allow the size of the buyin have an effect on me.

I am officially signed up for the events so, this is happening! I am so excited!
