2009 WSOP Information Released
 

Not a full blow-by-blow schedule but lots of information including date range (May 26-July 15).



Also, here's a side-by-side comparison between this year and last year:



For those too lazy to click. Here's a couple highlights:
November 9 still exists.
Special $40K buy-in NLHE gold bracelet event to celebrate 40th anniversary.

Good stuff... Bummer that they changed the HU Event from $5k to $10k - I'll have to really think about that one.

At a glance, I think I'm probably going to go out for the first 2 weeks, and then play it by ear after that, I guess.

What's a triple chance?
 

What does this mean?

Triple Chance No-Limit Hold’em (Event 52)
No Rebuy/Add-ons $3,000

Google search turns up speculation, but no answers.

Time to start looking at house rentals, woo.

Here's the complete schedule. Sorry for the ugly formatting but I'm at work and have limited time. :)

November 7-10,2009 TBD FINAL TABLE

I don't know the correct terminology...so I'm just going to say rebuy and add-on.

Treat the event like a rebuy tourney...except that you can only rebuy/add-on a maximum of two times. I believe you get two rebuy chips and can use that any time you wish before the rebuy period ends. If you bust out, and still have a rebuy chip left you can use it to come back in.

Ways to use it -

- Double add on for a triple starting stack right off the bat (probably a bad choice unless opponents at the table do it and they suck and table won't break)
- Play like your standard way with one bullet. If you bust then, rebuy and repeat...if you still have rebuy chips at the end of the rebuy period then add on.
- Play maniac style and play aggressively to chip up....bust out...repeat till you're on your last bullet.
- Just have enough in your stack to cover the guys to your right...play position.
- Others.

In any case, if the rebuy period is about to end, and you only have near the starting stack, you should play a lot more aggressively if you have another bullet left...especially against guys without any.

Moving to Cali, so I might have to satty in through some Sacramento scrubs.
