Taking my shot at the 2005 WSOP...

[Talking Poker]

Ok, here's my plan.

I'm going to play in 30 seat guaranteed tourney tomorrow. It's a $500+35 buy in at 3:30 PM ET. There won't be an overlay, as there are already 550+ people registered. I wouldn't be surprised if they end up giving away closer to 40 seats.

I just sat down for a $69+6 SNG satellite. If I win this, great. If not, I may try again one more time later tonight or tomorrow... otherwise I'll just buy in.

If I win a seat for the big show, yeah for me! I've already got my flights booked for Vegas from 7/5-7/16 anyway.

If I don't win a seat, I've decided NOT to play in any more satellites to the Main Event (I was thinking about playing in one of the $1000 ones in Vegas), but instead, I'll be playing in Events 43 and (44 or 45). Those are $1500 and $1000 respectively.

So, there you have it.

In the eloquent words of Mr. Shabi.... Discuss.

Selling a piece of yourself if you get in? Would you consider it? I actually have a small piece of action on a couple unknown players now, but I just can't turn down action.

Side note, you can go to a popular internet sportsbook and wager on a couple guys I know to make the final table at 100-1 odds. PLEASE EVERYONE save the "those odds are terrible" speeches, we know, it's just for fun so relax. Kinda cool to place a wager on someone you know. Both guys won their seats through Party so they obviously have some kind of skill.

Anyway TP consider auctioning off a piece here and there to get in teh main event, you'll be sorry of you don't play, you know it.

[Talking Poker]

Not necessarily. I think I'll be quite happy in the smaller events.

[Talking Poker]

Well, I guess I'm buying in tomorrow. Finished 3rd (bubble) in my satellite. I went out with TT, when MR. JK hit his miracle on the river, of course.

[junYUN]

you know whats funny i just got knocked out on the bubble in a S&G with TT against JK

[ChipFish]

I bubbled on the $11 Rebuy at Stars for the new $500K guarantee.
$215= $500k guarantee.
$500 = $700k guarantee. WOW!

What's your screenname over at FTP? I'll have to watch out for you if I get a chance to get online later today.

Rogue23.

The Interpoker tourney is up to 155 players registered and climbing... still well under the 435ish break even point...

[BrianSwa]

good luck TP...if you win a seat I expect to see a Talking Poker T-shirt on tv when I watch the main event!

[Talking Poker]

Oh, you will. Well, it's a nice looking golf shirt, but that's even better, right?

[Talking Poker]

I plan to, yes.
