Did you guys played any event at WCOOP on pokerstars, low events or high events and did you cash?

I played a few starscoins satellites and won 1 for a ticket on event 63 low I think, $11 buy in for 11K 1st place and managed to bust 358th for $36 xD out of 8494 with 1205 places paid

After almost 7 hours of gameplay I was super excited to make it deeper but got put a stop, had a little less then 10BB and had to shove with J7s to steal blinds, one caller with 66 oh well maybe next time

Feelsbadman, I was so angry because I lost a few sats to people doing bad decisions and getting lucky on turn or river, if not I would have played like 3 events u.U

Wcoop was disappointing for me. I had one good run in a $27 4 max PLO Pko, I came in 74th or so for a bit over $100, and $200 or so in bounties. Busted a $27 6 max zoom Pko. Busted an $11 NLHE. And I busted the $215 main that I satalites in for $14. I played 6 hours straight and busted 3000~ with 2200 paid. I busted an hour away from the money with KK all in pre vs JJ and he rivered a J. Oh and I got into a $55 PLO 6 max via $5.50 satalites but busted the event from all in preflop with my AA10x vs 1010xx and he hit the last 10. Really hoping tcoop is better lol

I'm still an apprentice in the game, and I have not had much luck at the tables.
So I did not win anything ... I just lost money up here.

Sad to hear that but even if you lost if you managed to ID things you made wrong or save hands to analyze with the forum in order to improve than that's a loss you can be "happy" about, good luck to you on next games :)

WCOOP did not go well for me. I only played 4 events and didn't even come close to cashing. Two of them were PKO's and I only got one bounty. I was looking forward to playing the PLO heads-up total KO but I got home late the night before from a football trip and slept in. I guess it's just par for the course for this WCOOP.

Damn man :( funny enough I was super looking forward to that event too and just forgot about it because it didn't show up on the list of tournies on PokerStars website. It had a few that just outright weren't on the list for some reason.

Pretty Bad

Played 14 games for nearly $600 in buy-ins, made like $680 (cashed in only 2 of them, one for $660 & one for $20). These games are way too hard for me. I hate big field tournaments, just never get lucky. :(

Yeah PLO is a very fun game, I usually don’t like PLO KO tournaments because it can be difficult to isolate players for a bounty but it being a HU total KO it sounded fun. Also recently I’ve been playing a few NLO8 6max PKO turbos, they’re action games and a lot of fun.

I did not have a seat to play it I played a tournament that can get by satellite but I did not go well maybe one day I could play those tournaments with a more comfortable bench and play my best poker.

Yeah indeed although big Field tourneys are like that but if you managed to get to FT you'll earn a big sum of cash comparing your buy in, really hard though

Damn, they are hard to me also because I am Not a good player, at least you got of even or a little profit still, you may want to try satellites to some of those events to not spent that much and try and cash big? Or if your bankroll allows it than who knows you could win :) good luck on next events!!

Seems fine, yeah like do you get too many callers because you can't go all in to iso? I remember playing it a little when PS ran a series of games freeroll into a weekly ticket base tourney

For me it was just wanting to play, I was watching the Brazilians at the final tables, After all it's a way of studying the game too ... Maybe next year I'll play.
