Aah strawberry float I ran into AA with 20BB and top pair.

Already spent the $8k in my mind aswell.

Edit: And 49th in the Big $55.

WSOP TV coverage is terrible this year. Firstly, they completely skipped days 1 and 2, and are starting at day 3. Secondly, nobody is uploading them so it's impossible to watch. :x

Yeah, with all of the live stream stuff already on YouTube it's very difficult to find the ESPN highlight episodes. I've tried previously with the 25k HU and 50k Players Championship and not been able to find anything.

I've downloaded the dtd software and try for a seat now.

Edit: The software is awful. Almost unplayable.

You can register via the bluesquare poker client, and then they phone you up and ask what day you want.

Don't think we need bones to tell us that one. Stacks are pretty much unplayable post flop!

Right I've qualified for that Dusk Till Dawn thing and I'm currently looking at hotels. I take it no one else is going?

Went out of your way to humiliate me - ta. ;)

To be honest - the PFR is poor - I regretted at the time, but having tied myself in that loop - I didn't think post-flop was that bad. I won't be raising J-10 again in a rebuy mind.

Haven't got a seat :( I don't think I am rolled to keep trying for one either. Would be good to go but chance of both Aaron and I getting one cheap isn't great and I'd rather not go alone. Also means I can probably play Goliath with Gaz and Sykes instead. You should deffo come to future meets though. :D

RE DML hand: Are you saying he is raising to isolate UTG? Or UTG+1? Both?

Agreed that stack sizes make the raise no good. If anything you want to be punting pre to pick up the 3.5x but obv JTo is terribad hand.

Didn't realise that hand was a rebuy. In that case I don't raise pre as they never fold, but in a normal freezeout (even with those short stacks) I think I make a small raise and try to steal the pot.

Didn't think anyone was. My girlfriend doesn't live to far away so I'm trying to get her to come, but she doesn't seem to quite get the concept that a poker tournament can go on a variable amount of time so I'm not sure when I'd be free.
