Ha Ha. I gave him your name and said to look for a tall guy covered in Talking Poker gear.

And Good Luck. Here's to you hitting another rush at the start of the day. :thumbsup:

TP...

I think the reason the event is paying less for 6th place is this...

Last year... did they pay the same for places 15-18 then 14-10?

this year they are paying 18-10a individual dollar amount as to paying them the same dollar amount so that would leave less money for other places.

Okay, first pseudo-update is in. At 2:12pm, they weren't seated yet but blinds were going to be 1200/2400 with a 300 ante. Let's hope that Mark's on the button and picks up some monster hands QUICK!

He did say he was starting on the button!

Annnndddddd the cards are in the air.

Oh yeah, and Mark doubled up first hand!

nice!

right in the thick of it now...

I think it is less this year because Harrahs is taking a huge fucking percentage. Something like 8% or so.

that could be it as well...

51,000

FINAL TABLE!!!

Saweet! Sounds like he's got plenty to play with now. This sounds like a pretty wild tournament if his ups and downs are anything near typical.

positive thinking works!!!!!!!!

41,000 in chips. 27 players left.

got the friday salsa and guacamole made, drinking margaritas like they are water, and checking this thread as often as I can get away.
