Actualy, yes you did. I'm on my way out right now, and I am READY.

Here's hoping for some good luck, or at least, very little BAD luck.

I'm supposedly all over the updates. As soon as Mark sends me a message, I'll get it posted here.

Mind you, I *probably* (read: no way in hell am I doing this with a baby that gets up at 7am) will NOT be staying up until the end of the day. That would be about 6:30am my time... I will stay up as late as possible though to keep the updates coming in!

Aww, come on, where is your dedication to the TP ? lol
(I am sure I will only be reading until midnight EST anyhey)

Penguinfan · #7 07-30-06, 03:26 PM

I'll be up most of the night tonight, if you want to pass the update baton to me around midnight I should be able to take over.

Robbie Robb · #8 07-30-06, 03:38 PM

At the moment it does appear that CardPlayer is tracking Mark as well. His chip stack is appearing in their list!

Robbie Robb · #9 07-30-06, 03:48 PM

Mark's chipstack: 9600 (from Mark - not CP)

Quint · #10 07-30-06, 04:15 PM

post moved to proper thread. carry on.

Isn't your kid around 8 months or so? How and the hell are you getting him/her to sleep that late?

6:00 is sleeping-in for my kids.

Robbie Robb · #12 07-30-06, 04:01 PM

He's 11 months. He usually goes to bed between 8:30pm-9:00pm and USUALLY sleeps through until at least 7am - sometimes 8am. Once in a while he's up at 6 though...

melioris · #13 07-30-06, 04:09 PM

Ah, I put mine to bed at 7, so we are on the other sides of the sleep trade-off.

GO TP!!!

Mark's back up to 10K in chips and there was a hand at the table that CardPlayer watched that he wasn't involved in: KK vs QQ all-in on the flop. The board shows a straight and the two players choppie-choppie.

He also says he's feeling good at the table and is now comfy.

Robbie Robb · #15 07-30-06, 04:56 PM

Back to 9600. Not much to report. He's playing tight. The player in seat 4 is getting a bit frisky so Mark's hoping to snap him off later when seat 4 has an overpair.

Robbie Robb · #16 07-30-06, 05:11 PM

Latest update: down to 9025 now in chips. Missed a big draw hand just before break. No worries though.

Nikita · #17 07-30-06, 04:07 PM

I also think it helps that Rob and I are night owls, so it's sure to be in his genes as well.

Robbie Robb · #18 07-30-06, 03:15 PM

Mark's sent through the first updates. First off, he's hot wearing a sweatshirt. (my comment: hot? in a room with 8000 people??? go figure!

)

He also said that he has no big names at his table but there is one other at the table that he has played with before.

He also mentioned that one guy is out already - first hand. He didn't specify whether it was his table or another though.

Mark won blinds second hand.

Robert Burton Eliminates the First Player on Day 1c
No Limit Hold'em Main Event
Jul 30, 2006 / 15:19:38 EDT
After a flop of J43, a player was all in against Robert Burton. They showed:

Robert Burton JJ
Opponent 33

The last two cards were 79, and Burton's opponent was eliminated in a set-over-set situation. Robert Burton can also claim to be one of the early chip leaders.

Tony Cheval · #20 07-30-06, 03:21 PM

30 down, 86 million to go?
