Register for the 10:15 Rebuy at stars $10+1
 
Quickly....
Guarantee $20,000
They had server problems and won't have enough people to cover.

ChipFish 10-25-04 10:17 PM

too late... sorry I wasn't quick enough for you guys

only 711 players which means they need 1289 re-buys to cover (which they won't get I don't think).


Wish me luck

BlibbityBlabbity 10-25-04 10:18 PM

good luck, since you posted at 10:15, would have taken some quick clicks to get in... :D , thanks for the heads up though

ChipFish 10-25-04 10:33 PM

Just for kicks I'll keep those who want to be updated:

I nearly doubled up and am at T5455 now with Q-Q vs. his A-10o/s.
He raised pre-flop and I re-raised.... he pushed all-in and I called.
No Ace and I doubled up.

Very early but I'm bored. :)

ChipFish 10-25-04 11:28 PM

Getting no playable hands... after add-on I am at 6120 which only leaves me at 277 out of 550....

I hate waiting. :(

ChipFish 10-26-04 12:15 AM

Crippled
 
Ad-10d loses to 9s-6s down to T1100

However All-in took blinds + antes and a double up with Qh-10H vs. Qs-9C gets me back up to about T3750

ChipFish 10-26-04 12:23 AM

Made it back up to T7190 in time for the second break....
I'm not quitting. :)

ChipFish 10-26-04 12:52 AM

T17300 95 out of 173 top 63 cash....
Haven't had many decent hands....
If I start catching some cards I have a shot.
At least I have enough to steal blinds now.

ChipFish 10-26-04 01:16 AM

T41000
39 of 109..... almost there.... don't get stupid :)

ChipFish 10-26-04 01:51 AM

T43000 with 69 left puts me in 42nd. 6 more spots before the nerves go away. :)

eddo31 10-26-04 01:59 AM

nice job making the money

now, make a final table and pull down the big bucks

good luck

ChipFish 10-26-04 02:05 AM

T91,000 16 out of 55 so far (in the money) Now I have enough to take a run at the final table. Wish me luck. :)

Talking Poker 10-26-04 02:14 AM

GL.

ChipFish 10-26-04 02:25 AM

181K 37 left 6th place

ChipFish 10-26-04 03:08 AM

I'm out 15th place.


Got stupid over Q-K and then just had to last.

$280 ain't bad though. :)

GeoffM 10-26-04 08:42 AM

Nice going buddy. That is sweet. Made 25.5 X your money back, can't complain. Now bonus whore that somewhere else. :p

ChipFish 10-26-04 08:48 AM

Not quite lol.

Entry (1500 Chips)-------------------------$10+1
Immediately Rebuy an extra (1500 chips) ----$10+0
Add-On after the first hour (2000 chips)---$10+0

So about 9X.... not complaining at all though.... (Stupid Q-K.... Knew I should have laid it down)......Stupid ChipFish.......Grrrrrrr :mad:

GeoffM 10-26-04 08:49 AM

Ahhh, I forgot about the re-buys. What do they give you with those, another amount equal to your starting chips?

Tilter 10-26-04 03:41 PM

nicely done. $250 profit is nothing to fret over. I gotta try that rebuy tourney one day. Sticking to the low $5 freezeouts for me.

BlibbityBlabbity 10-26-04 04:52 PM

Way to stick with it :)

Frontin 10-26-04 07:36 PM

Good job Chipfish!

So in a tourney with rebuys/add-ons is it expected you'll rebuy once immediately and then add-on at the end of the re-buy period? So the real entry fee is "30+1"

but wouldn't it be possible for someone who buys 2 times and adds on once to have more than someone who bought once and then added on once, leading to some sort of unfairness for the latter?

note to admin, maybe add a "now playing" thread??

ChipFish 10-26-04 07:42 PM

Yes. That is correct.

No. You can only re-buy when you have the starting amount or less....
In PokerStars Case, 1500chips.
Therefore if you have 1501 chips you can't re-buy.
The Add-on was for 2000 chips and occurs during the first break.


That's a good idea.

Prima was having trouble covering their Saturday Guarantee Tournies, made for a great deal

Tuff Luck 10-26-04 08:53 PM

congrats on the placement
