Everyone ready for the L HU SCOOP event? Only two hours left. I'm so pumped up right now. I'M GOING TO WIN THIS THING!!!

 

[forsakenone]

right now i am playing in the 5 card draw event. good luck in the heads up guys, i had no time to try to get there via fpps and i am not going to pay 16$.

 

[Pokertron3000]

JUst got in bit think I will take the cash and use for sattys in other events dont know how good I would do heads up going to walk dog have a think about it.

I thought about playing the 5 card draw event, but wouldn't be able to thanks to work. It's such a fun game though and I feel like a lot of people forgot how to play it. I guess it probably wouldn't be that was at the high or medium buyins(maybe though) but I feel like I could trample through a lot of people in the low

finished 3698, really disapointed, i played good, i was doing fine, got outdrawn, lost with QQ vs ATo all in preflop, A hit on the river of course, freaking hate tournaments that's why i don't play them because they are stupid, you get outdrawn once and you are out, i was sitting confortable on above 20 BB, i had to call with QQ vs this idiot playing any 2 with a vp of 50.

better luck to you guys, you will need it!!!!!!!!

BUT... I bet you were likin' it prior to the A hitting the river?
Personally MTT's are my favourite but for sure they can be crushing when you run deep in one and then BOOM... it's all over.. sigh...

I railed/watched a bit of the last few tables of this (the $5 rebuy) at the same time as the $500rebuy & Fulltilt $1K Monday. One guy (Corey Burbick aka Comandr_Cool) was on final table of both the $1K monday & the $500 rebuy, placed 4th I think in the $1kmonday and was CL of final 3 in the $500rebuy (must be nice!). Interesting to see Michael Mizrachi there on the final table also (doesn't have the greatest of online (on stars) tourney record, but was playing awesomely).
Was also cool to see that a couple of online poker's best MTT players actually going deep in the $5 rebuy (Gags & gboro780 < ranked #1) but both going out just prior to final table.
Final table was disappointing with only 1 of the final 4 seeming to know how to play (one guy inparticular was just freak'n awful, 3-betting EP rs with 2-2 & then calling off to a 4bet shove with them??) - raising 6x with A-rag, flatting 3-bets for 1/3 to 1/2 stack OOP with stuff like KTo and flopping Top2 with it, lol. Big payday for him no doubt.... probably a REALLY good thing for online poker (MTTs anyways.... but who knows, maybe he'll try donking it off to you cash game players??).

GL in the next ones (there's always a 'next one'... the great thing about online MTT play... "Fire up another one!!!")

Lol, whats the main reason you watch these games just for the enjoyment or do you learn anything? You playing any scoops this week PO?

 

[NiceNisus]

When I watch it's usually because I'm daydreaming that I'm at final table, when really I never played it or busted long ago. lol.
+ it is interesting to watch people play with so much money at stake.

You weren't asking me though.

 

[PattyR]

[forsakenone]

Its good to hear your thoughts on the subject, I mean I dont rail that often unless I remember too look at the rail section and see a CCer doing well. I suppose as well most torneys are finishing when I am asleep.

well how many entrants are there?

 

[forsakenone]

9307 and counting.

 

[forsakenone]

i think they will cut everything to 8192 unless they can get 16384 which is unlikely because it starts in 8 minutes! anyway i decided to give it a try, feeling good today, playing good, won 2 small sngs (0.25$ one for 6.23$ and one for 3.52$) qualified in both 11$ pl 5cd and in the 16$ heads-up without many problems.

I took the money and I am using it for other scoop satties seems +EV for me and sounds the same for you there are plenty of scoops left so you will have a chance to get into a game you feel you have a shot at running deep in.

forsaken some people will just get a buy in rd1
