[dj11]

Only the same 3 peeps are registered as of now. 12 days, no new players,! 4 days to go.

Structure shows it needs 3 to start. Hell of an overlay!

I can imagine it playing like a 90man sng. Sounds absolutely ridiculous thinking of it like that but cannot imagine their being anymore then 100

Great news,one of my favorite players.

 

[BlackMember]

I'll be rooting for "Nopaleva". Short stack yet show itself

 

[joe777]

The Mike Mcdonald stare down.

 

[dj11]

Game is at final table today, Monday, 9-21.

At end of registration it had 46 players. So it surprised me!

 

[blobman]

The total number of people is well under KidPoker's prediction of 68 but much higher than the guaranteed 20.

 

[blobman]

Why is his nickname Timex?

 

[dj11]

6 get paid, been 7 handed for 90+ minutes.

Most boring game ever!

 

[Poker Orifice]

Most boring game ever!

really? ... there's some GREAT players left in this tourney!

 

[Poker Orifice]

My money is on Neagranu

I believe he spells his name Negreanu

 

[TeUnit]

think i would even be willing to use my "one time" on that one

 

[joe777]

Things are not looking pretty good for Timex at the moment.He is on 6th position out of 7.

 

[moots]

Sick way to bubble (aipf):

 

[10058765]

Sick way to bubble:

A tad faster then I was Mootso, but that was a $126500 beat

 

[joe777]

Now Timex(Mike McDonald) is 5th out of 6 players and in the money.

 

[moots]

2.3M split 6 ways would be 383K

 

[moots]

5 left. Aipf:



Going pretty fast now. 4 left.

 

[Poker Orifice]

really? ... there's some GREAT players left in this tourney!

6 great ones... & 1 donkey (< the 1 guy plays $20-$100 mtt, mostly $100 spin&go, & with over 14,000 tourneys played, he has ROI-11%,.. down $33k. This will change that around.... for a bit)

2 high stakes cash games players & a $5,000 sng player left in it! (I would bet on Ben Tollerene to take this one)

 

[joe777]

And Timex is out on fifth place.QJ>AJ board 74J2K.

 

[moots]

3 remaining. 230k difference between 2nd and 3rd place.

 

[dj11]

A bit surprised they aren't talking deal....

I see saner minds prevail, and they are now talking deal....
