MEGA STACK CHALLENGE XXVII

Next week I am playing in the MSC at Foxwoods in CT. I have plans on playing 3 of the lower buy ins Mon, Tues, and Wed. If all goes well I will be playing in some of the lager buy ins Tues, or, Wed.

I try to get there several times a year to play in their special Tournaments. I have cashed twice there, Once for $1300 and one for $475, including 2 bounties.

I withdrew some of my winnings from Carbon to use for these games. I am so psyched to play in the MSC. I am also planning on attending the wsop Circuit Events at Foxwoods in April.

Nice those were some good cashes you've had previously! Good luck at the tables this year!

Thanks, will post some updates here. Hoping for a big cash!!!!

Sounds like a good plan. I plan on doing something similar in the future.
GL to you. I can't wait to hear how you do.

OK day one over. Not the results I'd hoped for. Played in a $165, 15K guarantee starting stacks 15K 20 minute levels.

When tourney started there were only 4 players seated and 5 deadstacks. That went for all of the first level At beginning of 2nd level another player sat to my right. Then just before the start of the 3d level the table filled. Players were extremely loose. They were catching cards too.

Blind were 100/200 and I woke up with A,A 3 players limp before me, I was cutoff. Raised to 800, 4 callers.

Flopp is 9, J, Q rainbow. Checked to me I raise 1200, 3 players fold 1 caller. I figure this guy has a Q or straight draw.

Turn is 5h. He checks, I raise to 2000, he reraises to 6000, I raise all in he calls.He shows K,10o he flopped thenut straight and crippled me. Didn't see that coming.

There is always today!!!!!!!

Good Luck! and yes, please make sure you keep us posted once you take it down! and also...any key hands you want to discuss.

Played those Aces wrong, thinking about it now. I should have given the other guy more credit when he 3bet me on the turn. Still learning.

Ging to eat and then rest for tonight's game. May play an additional tourney if I have the time.

Played in the $165, 15k guarantee Tuesday night.

These players are so bad. I can't believe some of the hands players called with. I ended up finishing 16th of 208, for a cash of $440. I won every race and 8 of 10 hands that went to showdown. Feel as though I played a close to mistake free game as possible. There were maybe 3 hands I should have played better.

Didn't get in any other tourneys as I left to go visit my Dad in Boston for the last day.

I am planning on playing in the next big tourney at Foxwoods, The Foxwoods Poker Classic, in March. I have to learn how to be just a little more aggressive, and I will be making bigger cashes.
