Pokerstars SCOOP 2012

[Poker Orifice]

Isildur buying FTP.

 

[Jim Lahey]

True but he definitely would love a win.

Daniel's last tweet states they are down to 6, and Elky is chipleader.
I'm rooting for Daniel.

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

Daniel and ElkY came 2nd and 3rd respectively.

Is nobody playing in the Omaha hi-lo ? Low buy-in of $7.50 for the "L"..

Lots & lots of bad players...unreal..

That bad, you can' actualy bluff at all, they are clueless on hands and it's weirdly/difficult/easy at the same time if that makes sense.

For example, on a paired board with three spades, I folded a weak FullHouse, the worse one out there actually. I felt I was deffo beat, + it was three way..I let go because of the aggresion between two players...

I folded after they potted all-in after 3bets/4bets etc...they both reveal a flush..obviously nothing went through their heads about fullhouses here..It wasn't a case of they went through thte through process of "I will get him off a weak fullhouse here" < < They honestly believed they both had the best hand with a Ace high flush and the other had 10 high flush lots of laughs

SIGH..

Come join in the fun one hour left of late reg.

 

[RamdeeBen]

and im out lol..

chips went all in with top set he called with a gut shot draw..and hit..lol

Standard run good.

 

[LuckyChippy]

Yeah saw him overshove earlier with KT on JQA5A board v AK and flatting the UTG raise and then the buttons BBs 3 bet pre. Seems he gets calls when he wants them and folds when he wants them and when his pre flop craziness gets called he gets there! Unreal.

Cause he knows what you have and what you will do when he bets.

Pretty much poker strat summed up there.

 

[OMGITSOVER9K]

I wanna play the SCOOP

Blue you got rid of your Isildur hard on yet?

 

[BlueNowhere]

Play SCOOP then, it's a nice structure for cash game players.

Not quite, I'm still in awe of the man.

 

[Cdub512]

I hate reading about SCOOP just because I really wish Americans like me were able to play it. GL to everyone on here who is able to play in it!

Yeah, surprised there are not a lot more cash game players playing. The structure is very good, deep poker and remains deep for quite some time in most tournaments.

aww

Thanks for the GL messages though!

 

[RamdeeBen]

Tempted to play the $27.00 Knockout tonight...knockout is only $5.00 this time rather than $10.00 which is making me wanna play.

5k starting stacks, 15minute blinds. Quite a slow structure in general..

Anyone else playing? I'll be more likely to play if others are playing ;}

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

I would like to but not around today to play. Gonna play the ante-up tomorrow, in a $2 one atm, to get a better grasp on it.

 

[BlueNowhere]

Yea don't have time to play today but going to play Ante-up one tomorrow. Absolutely guarenteed most people will play like retards. Also brings up some interesting spots.

 

[OMGITSOVER9K]

lol, I've got like 300 words and a diagram to do and I'm finished for the year

then I can play SCOOP and play the 15 360 games that came in the post for me today!

gl in the SCOOP though guys, someone needs to take one down before AckyGodMode does!

 

[WiZZiM]

Broke even i think last year, managed to reg for the 27 and 109 turbo event and slept through my alarm and missed the tournaments, lol. I wish these events were more australia friendly, most of them start at like 12-3 am so it's a bit too hard for me.

 

[BluffYou123]

Only played the Omaha H/L last night so far but I'll be playing tomorrow and all weekend. Only Lows for me. Need to see some CCers going deep.

 

[BlueNowhere]

Isildur has made money in High Omaha HU, $100000 locked up at top.

 

[BluffYou123]

I've had his table open for ages waiting for the next round. He rivered quad 5s the first hand of last round vs top 2 pair and a gutter on the flop.

 

[doomasiggy]

Christ. Isildur is absolutely dominating isn't he?

oh wait, just saw the average. No he isn't.

 

[BlueNowhere]

Isildur crushes and makes top 16, thinking he is going to own the SCOOP leaderboard.

Also looking at events and they have a $21000 HU event lol, I couldn't even afford to pay the rake for that tourney.

He's already number 1:

Place ID Country Played Points
1 Isildur1 United Kingdom 14 210
2-3 joacowalter Uruguay 28 185
2-3 shaundeeb mexico 29 185
4 Blackbeaty germany 27 170
5-7 drkamikaze1 canada 12 165

and he's going to get another 40 to 100 points in this HU event. So he'll be way in front.

and if you want to play in the 21K tourney, why don't you just satellite in. All you need is 300K FPPs

 

[RamdeeBen]

Yeah isil, did a good run once again...5th for 18k...

Some sick life this is, just randomly being able to buy in to any high roller event he wants lolz.

I'm really, really looking forward to seeing the 25k HU NL tournament, this is going to good.

Sick amounts of dollarslol.



As for me...I'm in the pittance of $27.00 FL hi-lo tonight, if anyone else is playing

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

In the $7.50 Ante-Up today. Should be fun.

 

[BluffYou123]

Was gonna play the big antes starting now but not gonna bother. Hate that format so I'll prob just rail a few tables for a while to observe the madness. GL in that FL tonight Ram. $27s and the $109 ME are as high as I'll be going too, don't feel so bad.

 

[JohnBoyWWFC]

I have NFI how to play this thing. I plan to limp a shit ton of hands but no idea if that's good or not. Surely it will be obvious when I hit!
