WCOOP satellites...
 
Have I told you guys how much I love these WCOOP satellites at ?

I just played in three of them simultaneously (well, slightly different start times).

$27+2 - Finished 7th of 9
$65+5 - Finished 1st of 9
$100+9 - Finished 1st of 9

:D

For those of you scoring at home (I am), I have now played in 7 WCOOP satellites and cashed in 6 of them. I've won 4. The other two cashes were a bubble finish ($120 instead of $1050 - ouch) and 5/76 ($165 instead of $2600 for 1st or 2nd - Damn AA followed by damn AK a few hands later).

I also played in two SNGs when I couldn't find a good looking WCOOP tourney. I finished 9/9 in the $50+5 (gotta love that) and won $450 in the $100+9. Not too shabby. I have to tell you, I'm really loving my tourney game right now.

Anyhoo, back on topic. I now have entries for the following Events:
#1 - $500+30 NLHE - $800k guaranteed.
#4 - $200+15 PLHE 6 max - $200k guaranteed
#8 - $1000+50 NLHE - $1,000,000 guaranteed

I really want to win a seat for Event #15 - $2500+1000 NLHE $2.5 million guaranteed. I'm not sure how many of the other events I want to play in, honestly.... we'll see.

Anyone else playing? How are you doing? Grab your TP.com hats and win some W$!!!

What's the deal?

You still interested in buying my w$ at 85%?

Congrats - looks like you're running well ... keep it up.

Talking Poker 08-08-05 02:21 AM

Yeah, probably.....

Gordogg 08-08-05 07:37 PM

Way to kick some ass TP. Congrats.

BrianSwa 08-09-05 03:19 PM

ok
 
im keeping score as of right now you have like $1,900 in torney entries and how much did you spend total to get them?

BrianSwa 08-09-05 03:22 PM

hmmm
 
something I just thought of, how many real pro's do you think are gonna be in these events?

Talking Poker 08-09-05 10:12 PM

Looks like you're not counting the couple of cash tourneys I played or the cash I won in the WCOOP satellites - just the entires.... but.... speaking in WCOOP satellites dollars only, I'm in for $500ish in buy ins, I think.

Thanks to the couple of cash tourneys though (and cashing in 2 of the WCOOP satellites when I didn't win a seat), my Stars account balance is higher than it was when I started :)

Talking Poker 08-09-05 10:14 PM

There were quite a few last year, and I don't just mean the Main Event. These are pretty juicy tourneys...

omahilo 08-09-05 10:48 PM

These tournies have the very best of the best in each event...

Pros that normally dont play online even make it out for these tournies.

BrianSwa 08-10-05 09:59 AM

Wow
 

thats awesome dude, I hope to rail you in some of youre tornies. Best of luck to you TP, I see you making about hmmmm 200,000 next month :)

Talking Poker 08-10-05 12:29 PM

I'll be happy if I make enough to turn these $W into real $.

Talking Poker 08-11-05 01:05 AM

Updating my list after today's satellite:
#1 - $500+30 NLHE - $800k guaranteed.
#4 - $200+15 PLHE 6 max - $200k guaranteed

#6 - $200+15 LHE - $150k guaranteed
#8 - $1000+50 NLHE - $1,000,000 guaranteed

Oh, and of course, there's also THIS:


I can't even believe it.

Looking at my records here, I have played 5 MTTs over the past week and made the final table in all 5 of them, winning 3.

ChipFish 08-12-05 03:46 AM

Well, I'm in Event #6,
Although, I'll be in the Dominican until the 10th.... Guess I'll have to pick something else.

ChipFish 08-17-05 05:58 PM

Updating my list after today's satellite:
#5 - $200+15 NLHE (w-Rebuy) - $700k guaranteed.
#6 - $200+15 LHE - $150k guaranteed

Oh, and of course, I will also watch this when it comes on Television :


I can't even believe it.

Looking at my records here, I have played 3905 MTTs over the past week and made the final table in all 2 of them, winning 0.


Fine, my list isn't nearly as impressive, but I'm still happy with it.

Edit to add: Event #5 satelite isn't even finished yet, so Since I posted this, I am sure I will have to cross it off my list in a few minutes. :(

Talking Poker 08-17-05 06:11 PM

LOL.... Now that I understand how W$ work, I'm going to unregister from my tourneys and use my W$ to try to build more W$ and then decide what I want to play in. I am still planning on playing in the above 4 events though.

About to fire up 2 WCOOP SNGs. $29, $70, and $139.

Here goes.

ChipFish 08-17-05 06:19 PM

OOOOOOooooorrrr....
Just before you win your seat in a satelite, (or when you enter the sat), buy in for CASH.... Then when you win your seat, they will give you CASH (Not W$) since you already bought in.
Then Unregister the seat from which you paid CASH and receive your CASH back....

Now you understand? ;)

ChipFish 08-17-05 06:36 PM

Whew... Squeaked in after nearly blowing it.

Talking Poker 08-17-05 07:10 PM

Well... this is even more interesting.

I finished 0 for 3 just now. It was UGLY. Ouch.
